I've seen many different "avatars" here and it got me wondering why and how did they get chosen.
There are some serious, meaningful and strange ones........even funny ones.
Put your thoughts down about your "avatar"
I'll start.
Mine is purely, my Masonic ring, which I value greatly. ------------- Initiated : 23rd April 2002 Passed : 25th June 2002 Raised : 24th Sept 2002 Atheism is a non-prophet organization. 32° Farenheit is certainly not higher than 3° Cel. |

I think mine is the most violent on the forum! I chose this because I'm always on a quest to learn to subdue my passions. I think we all are. One of the things that I constantly have to subdue is my temper. I usually don't get angry at posts, but I still have dial up as high speed isn't available in my area yet. In fact, my avatar isn't even animated on my home computer. That does get me aggravated! On a lighter note, I simply think it is a hilarious avatar. So, in fine, it is a mixture of comedy and the seriousness of our common goal of learning to subdue our passions. That, and the fact that tm274 has informed me that I can never, never, NEVER change my avatar! ------------- Past Master http://www.pontotoclodge81.org" rel="nofollow - Pontotoc Lodge #81 F.&A.M.

I chose the Templar Shield as my Avatar because of two reasons. First is that I hold my York Rite membership above most all the other Organizations that I am affiliated with. In my area the Scottish Rite definitely holds dominance over the York Rite by a large margin, but I hold the York Rite closer in my heart. Second is that I have always been a lover and armature scholar of medieval European history. I think that grew from spending a lot of time as a child at the library reading fairy tales and such things. In my later life I became involved in some of the reenacting societies and recently have became a licensed Falconer. |

I chose mine because I'm a Master Mason. I've got the square and compasses all over my computer.

I opted for a Square and Compasses that was both timeless design and somewhat modern - almost minimalist, but not quite.

 Being a Civil War buff, choosing my avatar was easy. Here's a photo of the "Friend to Friend; A Brotherhood Undivided" monument at Gettysburg. During the 3rd day of the battle when the Confederates were going over the wall at Cemetary Ridge, Confederate General Lewis Armistead was twice wounded. Union Captain Henry Bingham, recognizing the Masonic signal of distress, went to the aid of his fallen Masonic brother. These two Masons from different sides of that conflict are depicted in the monument. It's a well-documented incident as are a couple of other similar incidents during the Civil War, most notably one at Cold Harbor, Va where a fallen Union soldier was given aid by a Confederate Mason. ------------- Philologia Lodge #178 Conyers, GA Friend to friend, A brotherhood undivided. |

While I was asking two (now Brother) masons how to gain admission, we had a joke to watch Season 6, Episode 11 of the Simpsons that dealt with the "Stone Cutters." Like the goat, it's been an ongoing joke with us that always makes us laugh even during tough times.------------- "Quando Omni Flunkus... Moritati! - Mr. Red Green |

Elder Scrolls : Oblivion had a Knights of the Nine supplement. You recover magical items to build your characters armor, Weapons and items (Nine of them in Fact). You also unlock a "Priory" and encounter the spirits of Legendary Knights. The thing that is so striking, I did all of this over two years ago before I joined KT. You have to defeat them all in combat to prove your worth and then they tell your their tales. Then, you rebuild the Priory with newly assembled Knights to attack an evil Diedra Fortress. Favorite Video Game so far. It seemed appropriate, that game was almost as long as my Pilgrimage!

I was just looking for something Masonic, and unique, so I just shot a snap of our lodge emblem on one of our lapel pins. It's of our Square&Compasses, only surrounding Flax leafs. Flax is the emblem&flower of N. Ireland, and also has a little more significance being that it was my father-in-law who came up with the idea of featuring it in our lodge emblem. I snapped it on a stone slap of our fireplace, which has deeper personal Masonic significance for me, and of the hearth. ------------- Entered 01/04/2010 Passed 02/11/2010 Raised 05/04/2011 "Keep within compass and you shall be sure, to avoid many troubles which others endure." |

My avatar is Shin Hayata of the Science Patrol. Any Brother who grew up in the 70s and chose after-school television over homework (as I did) ought to know that Hayata is, in fact, Ultraman. My ID name, "Zoffy" is Ultraman connected as well. And the Masonic connection is that Ultraman is from the Land of Light. Shoowatch!!!! ------------- Master Mason, Sacramento #40 Lodge. |
