Well it took a year, but finally someone figured out where my Icon/avatar in the forums comes from.

Known as:
Our Lady of Vladmir
Theotokos of Vladimir
The Vladimirskaya
My icon comes from the Star/Badge on her forehead from this online copy:

The prize was $100
Maien has asked me to give it to animal rescue for the cats and dogs.
Way to go Maien
Thanks to all who played this year and last

Wel, I've been wondering what it was. Great to know
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Oh, and Gizmodkid was kicking butt all the way
Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
I had it, I just never linked you to the picture. I really won the search, just not within your parameters.

Wow, I would have just guessed it was a flower. I never noticed the topic where all this was going on.
I'd ask if anyone wants to take a stab at what mine is, but it's more obvious, I think, and I haven't got $100 for your favorite charity, either. (Though I've been wracking my brain trying to think of articles to write for wikiHow this month, as each newly-authored article means they will send one book to kids in Africa, and I'd like to be part of that somehow.) Charity stuff is cool, especially, in this economy, if you don't have to pay, to get someone else, or an organization, to give (more).

Instead of $100 to my favourite charity how about try to make 10 people smile in the next 24 hours

My bet was on a recolored ICQ icon
Well, I guess I could see that ...
If I took off my glasses, stood on my head for 20 minutes, and had too much sherry to drink
Or if the Vladimir were a flower child in the '60s
