Hey David. I was wondering, where did you got the image for my avatar? Do you know who the character is or where he's from?

The avatar pic you're using is from a batch I did by grabbing parts of different 'M.A.M.E.' screenshots. It's one of the fighting games but I don't remember off hand!

Cheers!

Yes indeed, it is the legendary Arutha Pendragon! The man who retrieved the sword 'Caliburn' from the stone. The King who was surrounded by men of valor known as the 'Knights of the round table' (the two most famous being Sir Lance-a-lot and Galahad)

..And here he is in all his glory...

Cheers!

Have you scanned the emporium? #326 and #348 look like good candidates. Also, isn't 'The Grinch' a troll? #414... and if you don't mind a purple troll, #332 looks very much like a purple troll's eye!. I also did a polished Version of your current avatar a while back,.. #448

If none of these suit your fancy, I'll see what I can do.

...Here are two new ones that might be good!...

Acording to "The histories of kings in Brittan", there is a reference to an 'Arutha Pendragon' and this is whom many believe is the basis of the King Arthur legend. 'Caliburn' is the name taken from "La morte d'Arthur" and is also referenced in a book called "In search of Arthur's Brittan" Excalibur is a modern day interpretation of those early legends. (probably some writer thought it was a stroke of genius to combine the word Extract and Caliburn to form Excalibur!) But I digress, like most legends it is subject to interpretation, my Version just involved a bit more research that the traditional one!

Cheers!

Tesco, you lost me! I have no idea what you mean by "How about Grapes"

Isn't it too early to feed the squirrels?

Ok, I updated My Emporium, All the 'Reserved Avatars' should be at the beginning of the list and I placed the names of the 'owners' in their description. just place your mouse cursor over the avatar to see the name!

Just click on the big pic to see the update! Enjoy

P.S. Let me know if any are missing or if you find any typos!
