Identify Your Avatar

[Florestan]

As should you! In the past year, you've changed avatars a zillion times.

The difference being he never claimed to keep one and the same avatar for half a year, only to change it after 10 minutes. 

[TheGSMoeller]

Indeed. Greg gets the grand prize: a year supply of Brillo pads.

Great. I would ask you to hand delivery them to me, John, but considering the recent Atlanta highway failures I'll accept the Brillo pads in the mail.

Listening to Petrouchka and wanted to read up some history of the work, so naturally I went to Wikipedia  . And this amazing photo of Vaslav Nijinsky was displayed. Had to become my new Avatar, which I will keep up until June 1st, 2017. Or as we normally keep track of time on GMG, through 6 different avatar changes from John (MI)

Hah! Cool avatar, Greg. Hopefully, I'll keep Nielsen up for awhile.

Following Florestan, I'll use a killer avatar.

Uh-Oh, I lied about my avatar...had to change it to honor the return of Agent Cooper.



Unfortunately I don't know how to get the gif to work in my avatar, but anyway, Agent Cooper is back!

Fixed that for you, Greg.

Damn fine avatar.

My new avatar is Jesse Custer from the Garth Ennis series Preacher. For me, one of the most badass stories I've read in a long time.

Time for an avatar change:


Elisabet Ros as the soloist in Maurice Béjart's choreography of Maurice Ravel's Boléro. Saw her live last month here in Madrid, and it was really out of this world...

Your precious avatar was my favourite on the forum (Nicholas De Stahl/Staehl?) by far, but the new one is interesting too. I've only seen performances of it via YouTube by Guillem and Plisetskaya and Donn. Yeah, it must have been wonderful indeed to experience it live. Good stuff.

FTFY 

Thanks, NikF! To hear this from the guy that has the coolest avatars on GMG is quite something! And as opposed to mine, yours are not just picked off the web ... 

Yep, I had also seen Donn, Guillem and Plisetskaya online, but must say that Ros, with her very long legs, and her coolness and detachment, is magnificent in this ballet, and makes it even more erotic...

Here she is (in a composite video with a male dancer--Octavio Stanley):

You're welcome. You're also too kind - but as you know, flattery is everything. And I think when I've a photo as my avatar at GMG it's just about the only place nowadays I show any of my work.

Ah, I knew I'd mangle the artist's name. Thanks for the correction. And for the video too, which I'll make the viewing of the centre of my evening's pursuits.

Hint: It's Dutch.

The painting, sure. The girl, how do you know?

[TheGSMoeller]

Damn fine avatar.

Thanks, Ken.
And can we start regularly using the term Nymanissimo? For any occasion?

[North Star]

The avatar is a painting. As for the girl, nobody alive does.
