I'm not changing it, just trying to use it on another forum...

Thanks! It worked for the other forum and I hope that it doesn't slow this site down at the same time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

To avoid leeching Shrapnel's bandwidth, you could upload it to a service such as http://www.imageshack.us

Pardon this bump, but I needed this up on the main page to support a post I'm making in the race to 1k post thread..

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

OMG Two rare events in one day and in one thread. First the reserection of this thread, a good thing, and David posting, a great thing. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Sweet.
That seemed to do it.
Thank you.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

3 rare events. Loser posting too!

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Truly, this is a momentus day.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Hey, Loser. Long time no see. You really back? or just hovering for SE:V?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

So, I'm monumentous? hmm, I like it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Just so people don't think I have dropped off the face of the earth,.. need an avatar? Post a request here. Might as well make good use of this thread Necromancy...

Muahahahaha, Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

You know, there was a guy on page 9 of this thread complaining it was too long. Just thought I'd mention that. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

LOL

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

I have a request for you David.

Think there is any way you can animate my avatar. Like make the flames and arms move?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Actually here is the original picture. It's a Magic: The Gathering wallpaper image. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

ok, first do not overestimate my skills as an animator, they are minimal at best. That said here are 3 choices for the avatar..

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

I like the middle one. I'll switch back and forth from my original and it.

The last one with the revolving light strikes me as a little to flashy for the subject image.....

They are all great though.

If you could eventually animate it, that'd be excellent!

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

There! *Brushes hands in a finished gesture*

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

If you want some more Images to make Avatars out of, here is the address for the MTG wallpapaper archive.

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x...m/wpotwarchive

There are some very nice images that I think would make some impressive avatars.

In fact, I have another request if you dont mind. Can you take the picture from this and resize it for me. Maybe make one without the source of light in the upper left?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Fyi: the 'light source' it a trademark sig of all my avatars. live with it. I don't know you well enough to make exceptions to my rules. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

that said, here is your resized image 'Avatarized' by me.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Wow, you even got the Red Dwarf characters in there! I was almost tempted to change my avatar to one of those http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Thanks, David the Avatar looks really great.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

*Bump... Now if this does not qualify as thread necromancy I don't know what does..

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

*Dances around a blue fire while chanting arcane phrases.*

Gotta have some sort of ceremony, or the necromancy won't work! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

DEG - one of these days I need to send you a good "card" pic to make an avatar for me, since you are so involved in avatar necromancy.

During all your "spare" time.

Heh.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

'Now all ve need iz zome electrizity!'

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

"What knockers!" heh, sorry couldn't resist.

Does this mean the Avatar Emporium is back on-line? Excellent!

Btw, do you mind if I use some of the pics up there as component images? When I still worked on the Capship mod I took some pics from up there and used them as troop component pics, is it OK with you if I use them in another mod I'm currently working on?

I'll put up the pics I want to use later, I've not got them handy here. One of them is the HAL-9000 eye pic, that I know for sure.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Strat, no need to post the ones you want to use, just use them and enjoy.

I guess I could do more avatars in my 'spare' time, so if anyone has a pic or two they want converted just send them to me at david_gervais60 over at that hotmail service thing.

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Thanks David, but I wanted to ask anyway as at least three or four of them have already been in use (though the people using them haven't posted here in quite some time). That's why I wanted to ask you.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Bump* (the full moon made me do it)

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

P.S. People who complain about thread necromancy are wasting their precious energy. I suggest that you petition the mods to have them lock down threads more than a day old. (or at least any threads on page 2 of further.)

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Is the Avi Emporium still active? Are you still busy with it?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

an 8-day bump hardly qualifies for a complaint, and your avatars are part of what makes this a cool place to hang.

So "Hi David!" and stop with the self-deprecating nonsense already!http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

I haven't done any new avatars, but then again I haven't seen any interest in a long time. I might get back to making some, one never knows.

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

I have some interest. A little kitty that wants a shiny ring put around it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Can you get me a black hole type avatar better than my current one, with that cool shiney ring?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Thanks David! Me likes! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Please? I know you want to... Plus it's a really cool picture. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

But, but, but,.. it's a black and white pic.. ok, but don't complain about it's lack of hues. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Now, if you want to make a cooler black hole picture, be my guest.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Better? that is a very 'subjective' task... but here is a 'different' black hole..

How about more cylons for us traditionalists?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Shiny !!!

And they really ARE, too. You, sir, are an officer and a gentleman !!!

What are the odds of getting the second one down with a moving "Eye-Light" ???

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars

HAAAAAAHahahahahaha! I thought I was the only one that ever said that!? The operative phrase of course being "You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar." but "officer and a gentleman" of course is so much funnier!
No one ever gets it though... I just get strange looks... humourless bastards...
