you can make your own avatar if you can't find one the right size. crop and shrink it.

mine is a lady in a teacup. this is what the full size looks like:

Oh. Well ill still have to find some decent image manipulation software, and a pic i want that doesnt end up looking oncomprehensible like yours does. I can only tell its a woman in a coffee cup because you say so. No offense intended.

Just a block of gray. The exact same shade as the rest of the bar...according to MSPaint. It doesn't look the same to me, though. :(

Why do you still have a animated avatar.

SwedishFish
03-29-04, 08:59 PM
it really looks bad? it looks ok to me but really small. i use the same one on another board which allows avatars twice the size and it looks great there. not as good a board though so i stick around here.
if the paying option is brought back, will we be allowed larger avatars?

Since I was a kid, I love rainbow, or in more general term, multi-colored objects, thus my current avatar.

I'm glad for these new avatars. I usually have a hard time distinguishing btween curioucity, cool_skill, cosmictraveler and certified_psycho... maybe with these new avatars, I'll start remembering who is who? :D

I just took the favicon of my website because my old one looks crap without animation and reduced in size (that is also why it is 32x32 pixels instead of 40x40 pixels). I will probably make a new one at some point. But I am all out of ideas.

I only have 3600 pixels and a monkey as the theme.

Maybe I will make an even smaller avatar. Be special be being almost non-existent.

I like to keep them in rotation. Mystech, your avatar is great, fits perfectly with everything around it.

Mmm hey that avatar with the girl in her underwear is so sexy it makes me want to have sex. I wish I had a 40x40 chick to access from anywhere on the web! YEEOW!

I have no idea what I mean by any of that. I'm just killing time waiting for a class, and am very very bored.

04-01-04, 06:01 PM
Mine is a little deer head I drew. Because for some reason I named myself SpyMoose, and gave myself that title that I've got. So I guess I'm completing that whole cervine theme there.

Recently I changed my avatar into a pentagram, just to protect myself from the religious magics of various members. :p

Now my avatar is a section of "The Son of Man," by Magritte...

I can't find the actual image I used for my avatar, but I know that the whole painting looks somewhat like this:

I like seeing people's avatars. I was not eager for them to return, but I was wrong and now I'm glad.

Mine's a tattoo I have on my hand. It's a representation of a Bohr model of a carbon atom. I like it for lots of reasons, but the total geek in me likes to say Niels Bohr designed my tattoo ;)

I created a symbol when I was like 10. When I got older, I TMed it. It's my logo. It represents me, cool skill, caliditta, and anyhting that falls under the caliditta empire. I use it as a service mark/product mark/seal for myself and my organization.

05-01-04, 12:42 PM
I thought so, but I really was not sure which colour represented your face and which your hair. And I was almost positive that the pink coloured part was clothing.

Just wanted to check. Why not post a bigger version on the picture thread? :D

I'm fickle and *sniff* insecure...

Well, I guess irresolute is more suitable a descriptor, and, to be sure, I'm comfortable with Mortiis.

He'll probably stick around for some time.
