When I first signed up here, and for a long time thereafter I had this as my avatar:
Which is the cover of Superman II, the Richard Donner cut.
I picked it because I absolutely looove Superman II, I love all the romance between Clark and Lois. Aside from that, I have this thing about watching Clark rip his shirt open to reveal the Superman shield when he's on his way to save someone. It gets to me every time and gives me shivers (in a good way, obviously).
What I have now is a picture of myself. I just thought it was a nice picture and I always think it's fun to see what other folcs look like, so I asked someone to crop the picture and shrink it for me, since I have no idea how since I've switched computers.
