I ha e trouble working out what the avatars are. Thye’re Pretty tiny and I mainly see little bits of colour. For instance, **Beck** ’s bad bad avatar is clearly based on Andy Warhol? But what are the little blobs of colour? They din’t Look like Marilyn? ---

Mine is Tedd from the webcomic El Goonish Shive (specifically the EGS:NP sidecomic’s [Playing With Dolls](https://egscomics.com/egsnp/2014-08-26) arc), with (canonically accurate) colour added by me. (Tedd, like me, is genderfluid, her hair is purple (my favourite colour), and she’s in catgirl form, which…uh…_points to name_, so…yeah.) ---
