Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">good question, all I remember about your avatar is that it is clipped from a fantasy pic. A guy and a girl standing under a blue light looking upwards. It might be a Louis Royo, or some other such artist.

A good deal of the avatars came from alt.binaries.pictures.fantasy-sci-fi or other such 'Fantasy Art' sites on the net.

Sorry that I don't have any more specific info on your avatar, perhaps someone else recognizes the pic?

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Thanks for the information, I will have a look at some galleries. It doesn't quite look like Royo, but who knows? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Slick: By the way, Geo, how do you keep your eye from drying out?

Geo: *takes out squirt-bottle and mists himself down* Yeah, I have been meaning to ask David to draw me an eyelid.


Slick.

Subtitle? SUBTITLE? No subtitles! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Universe reborn... pfft

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

it's not a subtitle, it's called 'Teaser text' (aka a catch phrase)

LOL

The graphics are great.

The title-logo is a very nice arrangement.

The subtitle, however, seems less than professional. In fact it reminds me of a very clever Romanian.

And while that banner, with its... interesting subtitle, is great for a web hobbyist, the text does not inspire me to take it too seriously.

I do hope I'm not speaking out of place when I say that, it just strikes me so.

Oh yeah, and there's something about the word EMPIRE in serif font that is strongly familiar... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
Not that I don't like that. As I said, the title is very nice.
