Kamog, thanks. I thought it was a good choice as well.

David, the four stars won't fit even if you took the stars and sort of overlapped them over the border of the avatar? I don't know just a suggestion. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 
With the loads of avatars you've supplied us, I feel that you would deserve an honorary rank of some type. I doubt anyone here would quibble over "cheating" as long as you're producing such quality pics and not grotesquely stretching them out. I'm still new here, however, so my feel for the fora may still be "iffy"...

David E. Gervais January 14th, 2003 09:10 PM

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 
..remember, there is a max of 8 pics per post and that includes the little 'smily' pics like this http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

..way back when, I was puzzled as to why when I tried to post 8 avatar pics it would say "sorry the max is 8...bla bla bla" Then found out it was because of a little 'smily' I had inserted at the end of the post! Ah well, I know better now, so I guess you can say I'm a wiser person!

Ohhh ok, I didn't know it limited how many pics you had on a post as well. Or even that it counts the smileys as a pic too. I knew there was a limit of 8 smileys but didn't think it would also limit images. Well in that case...

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 
If you mean have Shrapnelgames include my avatars in their current batch of choices. I have no problem with that, in fact I think that would be a great idea. I'm not however going to pursue them to get this done. If per chance someone at Shrapnel agrees this is a good idea and catches this post, they can feel free to include my avatars with theirs. In fact I have polished and framed a few of their existing avatars already.

Nuf said, and thanks for the vote!

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">hmmm, I sometimes read too much into a phrase, are you wishing I suffer the life of an insomniac? If you don't want me to rest in peace, then that implies that you wish me to be disturbed throughout the night. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I think it's only fair that I missinterpret other people since other people are always missinterpreting me! LoL http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

man, I'm so funny sometimes! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

David,

Would you be willing to make a "Governor General" badge for SE4 by Committee? Think something like a Planetary Governor for a dedicated military planet.

Then SJ could add it to the Committe forum, and I could be "special" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hey Nodachi! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Welcome back.

We missed you!

What happened? And are you here to stay?

EDIT The new avatars are the children of David Gervais! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

If you want a new one, ask him! Don't think he is into 'moving' avatars though.
