Avatars

I know it's not, but it kind of looks like an othello board, especially if I was playing black.

On a different note, I haven't been able to come here much lately. I usually had this site up while at work and checked it out fairly often, mostly while actual work stuff was processing. Now, Big Brother (my boss) has a new program where he monitors all everything we do on our computers, especially the internet.

Of course, I could cheat, since I'm the programmer in charge of getting the data for him, but that wouldn't be fair. Plus, this guy is so nit picky that he probably has another programmer monitoring me.

I reiterate my hint, and give it more "oomph": The fact that I got this idea is proof that I have no Life.

Mr Initial Man, does your avatar have anything to do with the following:

• Crossword puzzles
• Mosaics (Art, not the browser)
• Website development
• Binary
• Bar Codes
• Tetris

Guys,

Why spend so much time on these Avatars issue, when the world is about
to run out of oil and foods soon !!!

Bless you all.

I think it would be great if we ran out of oil! Then we'd be forced to use alternative fuels...
DOWN WITH BIG OIL!!!

Anyway, back on topic... Yeah MIM, how about Sunny's ideas? Those seem like some good guesses.

They are good guesses, but they're unfortunately all wrong. However, I offer these further hints:

2 Dimensional mathematical concept
Tetris shapes were tested.
First worked out on graph paper.

Man alive, I never dreamed I'd throw you guys for such a loop!

something to do with tessellation?

Not tesselations.

*Sighs.* ONE LAST CLUE!

Conway

It's a glider from the Game of Life.

And Nevermore's answer is Made Of Win!

The product of spending too much time on the internet instead of on my degree.
Speaking of which, I guess I should do some work.

I'm surprised it took so many hints, really.

today i finally caved in and bought the internet channel for my wii. luckily i have an extra wireless keyboard, so typing this is a lot easier than using the wiimote.

hooray for nerds.

How would you use the wiimote?

Since we had so much fun guessing my last avatar, I decided to go for something OBSCURE! Guess away!

Hint: Belt.
