@outerspace470 I see. I had my previous avatar on NG for over a decade before I switched. Picking out one that fit was two afternoons worth of work and wrestling NG's WEPB-conversion was a chore and a half... But I am rather happy with my new avatar. :)
I cannot estimate if coming up with an avatar that you drew for yourself would be easier or harder than endlessly digging through galleries. But if I had the ability to draw like you, I would want to show it. ;)

This is not meant aggressively, but "I have to know": It seems you draw competent (NES-style) Mega Man/Rockman fan art (and level elements). But your avatar and profile background on NG do not reflect that 'at all'...
"Why?"

simple, I made them before I got into pixel art and never updated them. I also use that PFP between all my accounts and kept it for consistency
