These avatars sure are something awful!

I was browsing around the random bits and bytes clogging my hard drive when I stumbled upon an ancient collection of lost art! All right, by "ancient" I mean one or two years old, and by "art" I mean mediocre, tasteless scribblings.

Where'd they come from? Why do they exist? Excellent questions, all! And I have some answers, though their excellence most likely pales in comparison to that of the questions: sometimes people at the Something Awful forums like to put little pictures next to their names when they post, and sometimes, I like to draw those little pictures. (Which can be no larger than 125x125 pixels and must be less than 30K.)

But wait! There’s more! »
