Well, not bad. I'd probably put it back one of these days...
Your avatar is Tool, isn't it? I hate Tool... But I do give 10/5 (yeah, you read well) to Animals, so something like 3.8

It's not Tool, but Alex Grey, the guy who created the art in Tool albums.

I don't know who the person on the picture is. His name seems to be Tom according to Tsevir's post.

Posted By: horsewithteeth11
Date Posted: December 24 2009 at 14:51
Could the bird improve to 5/5 if it was a different bird with teeth?
Also, 4/5 for the avatar and 4/5 for the sig because it at least doesn't display the same thing most other last.fm ones show.
-------------
Posted By: SaltyJon
Date Posted: December 24 2009 at 14:55
The teeth aren't quite vicious enough looking in my opinion. And my sig isn't a last.fm sig, it's just a ProgFreak sig (I don't have a last.fm account).
Posted By: Ricochet

3.5/5. Thank God it's not Whoopi.
As for the sig, standard 3. I like to see a different kind of playlist.

Cool avatar, but it's too small. Cool taste in music, but you listen to WAY too much Maudlin of the Well, Marillion, and Porcupine Tree.
3/5

That's a really lame album cover for a band I don't care for and the sig, while neat looking, is incredibly hard to read. I'll be nice: 1.8/5
