New Buddy Icon/Avatar!
Alright I'd normally never make a post for this, but my friend made me one special today and I LOVE it... just wanted to see what y'all thought. Give me some comments! Especially you Jeremy!

Well no I just wanted to reflect the different things I'm facinated with. The reason I am called BigDirtyFoot is more complex.
See, at my high school when I was a junior, I was an "honorary senior" because I hung out with the seniors. So, the cool senior thing to do (this was back like 2 years ago or so - my name on this forum actually USED to be enderbass14, which is a whole other story, and I got Rob to change it for me) was to add BigDirty to your given name, so my friends on AIM were "BigDirtyBilly" and "BigDirtySteve" and stuff like that. They told me I could have one and I was all excited, so I chose my nickname, "The Foot" (given to me because I play footbag) and shortened it to "Foot" and thus BigDirtyFoot was born.
I just had to find a nice way to incorporate Jazz, Poetry, and Footbag into one buddy icon/avatar... and I think it's really great!
*EDIT*: The college I'm going to next year is East Carolina University, and the college colors are Purple/Gold, so I wanted that theme for the avatar. And that footbag is the style I'll be ordering from Jeffrey Hibbs pretty soon. I'm naming it "Sonny" (After Sonny Rollins and because the "Ring Pattern" reminds me of planets, therefore the sun. Plus, Sonny Rollins was a golden player to me.)
