To avoid any confusion, like, say, from Cheezdude, I've changed my avatar again. Now it's Gender-bent Mikuru! I don't know why the Haruhi Suzumiya fanbase likes swapping the genders around so much, but there's pretty much an alternate version of every character right down to Kyon's little sister...

So here's Mikuru. And she's (he's?) still a Time Traveler so it's still funny.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Yeah, I'm changing my avatar to celebrate the Time warp as well. Went and made a dandy new sprite for it.
Not a very good void of non-exsistence, but we'll live.
May the Triforce be with you.

Figured it's been long enough so I've gone back to pre-Time Warp Godai.

Have I started a trend?

....unfortunate, because I'm thinking about going back to lobot. (my very, very first avatar on the forums)

Really? How'd you do the effects?
I usually make them in Word. *points at current avatar*
I then paste them into paint and put the sprites on.

Yeah, same... All this time I've been using MSPaint, staying stubbornly loyal to it, and I had no idea it could do gradients O.O

There's also a few more tricks I know with MS paint that aren't shown there.
Namely a little elaboration on that eraser trick.
