<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">..actually I prefer 'David' (One word two sylables,.. first word is equal to 24hrs, second word is somewhat realated to 'VHS'!!) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Oh, and in case you were wondering on how to pronounce my 'family name' it's Ger-Va the 'is' is silent!

Cheers!

Hey David, my reworked avatar looks GREEEEAAAAAATTTTTTTT (cue Tony the Tiger from the Frosties advert!!)

you missed out the dripping blood from the fangs and the horde of nubile young blart kneeling at my feet but other than that, it is kendal mint cake

PS an actor here in England called Ricky Gervais stars as a character called David Brent in a humourous show called "The Office".. you may get tarred with this brush if you are not careful

PPS isnt the "Gervais" pronounced "Gervay" or is that just the poncy French pronounciation?

WoW! It's been a full week since I started this thread and I've created over 240 new avatars (not including retouches!) That's some 34+ every day on average. If you will permit me, I'm going to babble a bit in celebration..

First, I created this 'Retro-Avatar' for the occasion..
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1039807686.gif

While browsing some of the other threads I caught sight of a message that had people talking about the good ol' days of 300 baud modems. I posted a short reply about the very first download I made.. (a music demo called Passionately!).. my eyes glazed over and I thought back to one of my favorite games of all time, 'Miner 2049er' for the Atari 800 computer. That's what inspired me to create this little avatar...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Wow, not only did I used to play Miner 2049er (it was one of my favorite games) I even saw the Passionately demo! It had the vertical bars on it, right?

Anyway, I was wondering if I can use that avatar, or is it specifically reserved for you (or someone else?)

(BTW, I also loved M.U.L.E., which means I also own a copy of Space HoRSE.)

Cheers!

P.S. Do you know that bigfivesoftware.com has a miner2049er/bounty bob integrated emulator available for download? It runs on Windows 95 and up! It runs fine on my WinXP! Just go to their web site and scroll down the page a bit and you'll find it!

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes, I do; I already have it, actually. Thanks for the info, anyway!

Ok, green with envy and having no artistic talent whatsoever, I humbly request an avatar from the master.

"Slick" comes from a book called Han Solo and the Lost Legacy and is a nickname that Han Solo picked up a long time ago. Think you could make one with his likeness?

*drooling*

Slick.
