Anybody recognize this ??

I'm moderator for another site and we had some one join and this is what they put up as an avatar. Does anybody know if this is a symbol of something or just nothing at all ? I have googled images using ; 1929, skull,etc. but I couldn't find anything.

Ask the new member if it represents anything in particular...but it might just be a custom built avatar.

Right. Looking around some more, it seems to be *very* goth.

Re: Anybody recognize this ??

Just looking at the date at the bottom and the "business suit" on the character - I'd say it's probably some sort of play on the Crash of 1929 and the subsequent depression. Maybe the individual is saying, "The ghosts of 1929 are haunting us today..."

Oh... still catching up. It's "period clothing" from the 20's. Maybe those ghosts are haunting us?

If he were you , I would agree.

Since he is 16, I'm not ready to give him that much credit for his indepthness way of expressing himself
