"She's got Bette Davis eyes"

 

I loved the 80’s music videos.  When we first got MTV I constantly watched it.

I know Tallulah was mostly a stage actress, but she was in a great pre-code called The Cheat.  If you haven’t seen it, check it out.  She’s great in it!

Oh I'm surprised I didn't know that! Will do for sure.

They both were strong women that liked to smoke at lot.

I spent ages yesterday going down a rabbit hole of reading more stuff about her that I didn't already know (spent forever google street view creeping her childhood home haha, and reading PDFs related to its historical designation) and came across the information that she smoked up to 120 cigarettes a day (though the main reason for her distinctive voice was chronic bronchitis as a child). And like... I do smoke myself (yep I know, not good), but 120 in a day?! I'd feel so sick. 
 

Anyway, yep, both strong women. That's what I like about her most, along with her many witticisms. There are some great quotes of hers. She never actually used the word 'bisexual' to describe her sexuality, but instead came up with 'ambisextrous' haha... which I jokingly use for myself as a result, of course.

Commissioned mine on DeviantArt! :)

(So I guess it counts as the latter, though I wouldn't call it "found")

Speaking of voices that sound like someone smoked a bit much. :P 

(good song/singing though)

I'm actually a semiprofessional artist, but ironically, I haven't used my own art as an avatar or posted it to any of the artist's threads here! I'm still at a stage where I don't want my AVEN identity to be findable along with the rest of my online presence, since I use my real name everywhere else. That being said, it would be nice to post some drawings here sometime... 😅

 

In the meantime, my eel GIF was made by the artist Pikaole, who is the creator of much fun and whimsical marine art.

No, but I do post my art elsewhere! If you're curious, I'd be willing to PM you a link.

I should really get around to changing mine one of these days. I went through a phase of writing circular Gallifreyan at least five years ago.

I'm not artistic, in fact I'm useless at anything like that, but I was called a grey haired animal in my teens so I used Animal as my profile picture

I sometimes use my own photography from nature walks for my profile image, but right now I have a still from the Mushishi manga of Ginko traversing through the forest. I don't know if/when I'll change it, but I'm a little frustrated that it's hard to make out what the image is (for me at least)

Nope, I found it somewhere -- specifically, it's the artwork from the Ayreon album 01011001

Animal is the best muppet, no contest.

https://www.deviantart.com/kurama-chan created it! :D 

Not sure whether or not they are still active, but if they are I can certainly recommend it, love the one they created for me! ❤️

i read "use my own photography from nature walks" and i looked at your avatar and thought, 'huh but isn't that mushishi' when i looked closer and was confused for a moment before i read the rest of the post 😂😂😂 i really love that manga. i should get into watching the anime one day ><

 

i wish i drew mine, but it's from avenging spider-man (that i didnt finish reading and never will lol) but I edited it in photoshop (mainly cause the colors looked weird when it was cropped 😅)

I have a weird aversion to using anything for my avatar that I didn't create, so it's almost always something that I drew/painted, and if it's not that it'll be a photograph I took (which is very rare, but I think I've used a photo once or twice).
