Title: What's your favourite Avatar?
Post by: Black Wolf on October 30, 2002, 12:52:01 pm
Well, as the title says, the best looking avatar (purely graphically of course, the quality of the campaign means nothing).

My first vote goes to TPS - they don't have a forum, and I think they're dead, but they have a hell sweet avatar.

Second place would have to go to the Port - it's simple but effective.

For some reference material check out this thread

http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,6404.0.html

but if anyone bumps it, I'll attack them with a dull knife. Unfortunately, a lot of the cooler ones are no longer hosted :(

They're too little to be considered an art form.

the winner is... noone, because noone has an actual avatar.

Speaking of which, that Star wars avatar needs work... it dosn't blend with the others... give it a background and a border perhaps.

Out of the admin images I like Windrunner's, and out of the campaign ones, probably Reciprocity or my own (PI). :D

Because you will want to gouge your eyes out and eradicate it from your memory. But you can't. You can never forget the manifistation of Hell itself, there on your computer. The evil pours from the screen into your soul, permeating your very existence and driving you mad, yet with perfect clarity showing you all that is unholy in Heavan and Earth. The most wretched string of vile adjectives could not even hint at the horror of this avatar.

Er, admins can I ask a question? No? well I'm asking anyway :p

Righty, for the first time in ages I was changing my profile options and came across the little box where you can enter a custom title. Now, I've heard about people's avatars vanishing if they screw with this. Wots the deal? Can I put a little ditty in?
Title: What's your favourite Avatar?
Post by: Fineus on November 02, 2002, 12:33:18 pm
No you can't, the way we add in the project avatars is by adding HTML code after the custom titles (a break, then the images). By entering your own title you void that HTML and loose all your avatars and any custom title you had before. Because it's un-necessary effort we just ask people not to mess with it so we don't keep having to repair lost avatars and so on. Also IIRC any custom titles are given out by the admins, not the users - to avoid 400 people PMing all wanting to change their custom text every two days.
