I've heard about this avatar on numerous occasions but I've never actually seen it. Can somebody describe it?

You can see schweb's old square chicken avatar through this link. Also, I totally recommend everyone should make the image in the link their new wallpaper!

I think this is my first time seeing the square chicken... which is odd because I've been here longer than some people who've seen it apparently. I do remember that schweb's icon used to be a sexy black and white photo of himself. I'm a fan of eric's bucky avatars personally.

My favourite one goes to PBG4. "And the worlds first waterproof mac". Nice.

Though Eric is quite the pro avatar designer too.

Eric's tend to be my favorite.

I just like mine. Makes me nostalgic for the Brave Little Toaster.

I think I'll go to the junkyard to day.
