[Nonsensical studios]

I'll go first.

The Eye represents the Minds eye, i.e. Thinking, immagination etc.

The Square, circle, triangle are an alchemy symbol.

Alchemy is thought of as Fantastical, Improbable and Nonsensical

[OutOfTheBoxStudios]

An avatar is a box. Mine is a box. So it is a box in a box. And the name of my studio is Out of the Box Studios. So... The logo has actually changed since, but I like this one.

After I made it I realized that someone trying to be arty could say it was a metaphor for our society, since we all think we're non-conformists, but by being non-conformists we just fall into another common group and are less distinct to the rest. take "scene" kids for example.

youtube icon, but it says youpoop. youtube's quality is poop (its actually getting a bit better) i'd like to think people can see that it says "$#*& yourself" where youtube's says "broadcast yourself" but i dont think anyone has noticed.

Mine is me on St. Patty's Day. I edited it to make it look like the American Gangster poster and put Irish in front of it and BAM! Irish-American Gangster is born!

I make my special effects and shorts under the name of Cymbal Monkey Theater. I love the type of cymbal monkey pictured, actually called a Musical Jolly Chimp. It was made by a japanese company during the 1950's and 1960's. I love how freaky they look and the fact that they chatter their teeth and bulge out their eyes when you push a hidden button on their heads.

[HunnyBunchFilms]

Mine is a still of my face from the fake hand 2 test film. Everyone tells me I look really funny in that picture.

[redtail5]

my icon of me holding my new cam represents the happiness i was feeling when i finally got said cam!

[punkandska66]

What kind of camera redtail? the picture is too small to tell.

[toppie34]

my avatar represents the human hopelessness with oil we always need more ,and i made the contrast high to show that our craving for it is great.We are destroying nature so when we officially switch to more natural recources i will try to keep this one and when we switch il get one of a sunflower or some corn.

A new monkey for Cymbal Monkey Theater. I'll probably change them every so often but always be on the monkey.

this might sound incredibly stupid but whats a chl

[chainedflesh]

Mine expresses the frustration I feel every time I see someone type in "l337 5p34|<" or when people use improper spelling or when people type without the slightest shred of syntax or spelling ability.... fuck it, it is because people are stupid.

[Ladri.]

Oh, I know. I go shopping for my family all the time. i mean really skyrocket and become as ridiculous as gas prices.

[m_kozmava]

Mine is just a dragon.

Mine is My favorite band The Electric Light Orchestra (aka ELO). Started in 1970 by Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne. Wood soon dropped out and Jeff Lynne wrote and produced every song they did with the exception of Roll Over Beethoven by Chuck Berry. They disbanded in 1986 but resealed a new album in 2001. Jeff Lynne was part of the Traveling Wilbury's With Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Tom Petty and Bob Dylan. OLE ELO.

[drweir]

ELO kicks butt. Telephone Line is one of their greatest songs ever!

[Amiah]

Well... It's me... and I'm happy... :rolleyes: ;)
