Woudldn't want to impose, but could i possibly have one?

Skulk means to lurk and hence skulky has something to do with lurking, aka gollum from lord of the rings.

But whatever you make up works too.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Geoschmo, when I was making this Avatar for Skulky, I almost followed through on an even bigger gag,.. I was going to put even bigger feet in front of the bush (hiding the eyes) and animate the feet spreading appart in a 'V' to reveal the eyes! but, I decided to shrink the feet and have the eyes there all the time. Oh and I thought of showing just the toes peeking out the botton of the bush, but because of the size of the pic it looked even more like a short guy with green hair!

I'm sure Skulky has a sense of humor, so don't worry, and besides I'm the one who made the interpretation of your suggestion!

Cheers!

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Hehe. It would be cool if the eyes blinked every once in a while. And when they were closed they dissaperaed completely and all you saw was the bush. But I know how much you hate animating the avatars. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Geoschmo, I edited my original post about 'using a generic avatar', now there's no blame, just a comentary! Sorry if you felt offended, I had no specific target in sight!

Cheers!

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

I stand corrected, but i still thinkit would be a cool avatar for him, and Geo... sounds like you want this icon for yourself http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Jimbob, here's how I would do it..

First click on the link to the pic you want (back a few pages in the forum) Then in the new window that opens click in the address window at the top of the page and highlight the URL.. press ctrl-c to copy the url to memory,.. then close the window to go back to this forum.. click on the 'my profile' link next to the intel forums logo (top right) on you profile page, click on 'view/update' profile.. near the bottom of the profile page is an option to choose a new avatar pic. somewhere on the next screen is a place for the url, click in the box and press ctrl-v to paste the link in, choose select this url or some such and voila, Oh and don't forget to select 'update profile' at the bottom of the page before you leave.

Hope this helps.. Cheers!
