About those avatars and custom status texts, how do we upload/edit them?
-
You don't.
If your working on a hosted project you get a custom avatar for that project type - if you do something of merit etc... we might give out a custom title. Other than that - there's no way.
-
Hehehe...bet Thunder and all the admins are sick of hearing this lately with all the newbies we've been getting...Basically, DON'T ASK AND YOU MIGHT EVENTUALLY GET ONE!!!
:D
-
or you can do something for a project and get one, that or contribute something big to the HLP community :nod: if you're a good fredder or modder, you can join the 158th staff and i'll see to it that you get a neat little avatar just like this one:
<------------------
-
ladeis and gentlemen, that is the perfect definition of a shameless plug :p
-
wait a minute...just what do you mean by that? :headz:
-
I think he meant...YOU'RE SERIOUSLY P1IMPING THE 158TH!!! (as in..."Well you could do it the hard way and actually work for it or you could join the 158th BANSHEE SQUADRON and get an avatar/title the easy way, namely just join a campaign.)
its ok, I think that that's a good thing...then again, I am on the staff. :D
-
heehee, but so is he.;7
-
<---------Fredzone guy here. Can i have an avatar?

Ummm...are you hosted, Lonestar? No! So you can't have one...(get hosted and then you get one!)
:D:D:D
-
Im hosted by FSW and UGC. Guess that dont count.
He did say, "if you do something of merit"
I figured getting missions validated for PXO was merit enough........
-
Well, it probably does but...
The HLP motto:
Bringing Modders together...
So it won't really be of notice...and being hosted places other than HLP doesn't count. Sorry! (Or just get hosted here...) :D
-
LOL, i could ask for hosting here, but i already got hosts with FSW, UGC and LOA. I really dont see the need for a fourth, just for an Avatar
-
Guess what i did of merit, hehe. Once Arnav gets back, mabye i can confirm a TS avatar with him.

:confused: :confused: :confused:
-
Oh man, I'm getting sick of this... I'm just going to squish someone the next time they ask...
-
Um- yeah - a few things...
Firstly, Lonestar does have a point - he's done something of merit... I'll see if I can sort something out suitable to what you've done :nod:
Secondly, this is not a cue for everyone to ask for stuff now - Lonestar gets one because (although I didn't know about it till recently) he's done a crap-load of work on the multi side of things.
Thirdly, whilst I'm sure you non-admin people had it in your best intentions - please don't dictate to others what they can and cannot do and so on. It's for us to justify our own decisions - not you :nod:
Finally, fear not Setekh - this should end up in that FAQ of yours - right? a copy of which should probably be linked to the forums.
-
Can I have another avatar?:D
*runs*
Oh wait, I might get one for the PI website.:)
-
:snipe:

Yep, probably in solid form, and also on a sticky. It'll have a mention in the Values Guide, too. ;)

Thanks Thunder. But if it causes to much "Bru-HaHa" dont worry about it.
-
No problem - it shouldn't do - we've not had trouble before (not really anyway) - but the rules are just there to save us the agrovation :nod:
-
Sometimes making the rules are aggravating hehehe. Funny with that said they are made to save on aggravation yet making them aggravates people.
Its a vicious circle. ;7
-
Which is why I love the "Ban User" command :drevil:
Luckily - everyones been cool and I've not had to use it myself...

Well now the vicious circle is complete...and you have your title :D
-
Ive never been called a Guru before :drevil:
-
Thank my bike for the inspiration (it's an Apollo Guru) - I couldn't think of anything else that was "unique" - "FZ Person" seemed... plain :nod:
-
LOL
Fred Person is kinda plain. Guru is just fine.

No offense, but I have been here LONGER than you have. :nod:

It doesn't matter how long you have been here, it's about earning the Avatar/title. I got a title because i did stuff for the comunity, and the avatar for joining Inferno.. I never asked for it.
You also get a title for doing something special like a joke or some other stuff. And you don't get one when you ask for one.
I have been here since the place opend and after 6 months or so i got my title and the avatar etc;)
Btw i think we should close this thread as it has been done allot of times. Just wait for the FAQ there it will be explained into the detail about this.
-
i got mine because..err...
because...err..
why did i get one?
:D

I'll say he completed my Descent3 Magnum and I think the Pyro GL, for his defense ;)
-
Yeah my Hanger Man title was given to me for my endorsement of Hangers. It all started, when i enquired if the Golgotha had hangers you could fly into, in the BWO forum...all that time ago, other noticable antics have include the largest hosted project on the block, NW.

Yes you have...:nod: But what does that have to do with anything?
But I joined a project and so therefore got my 158th avatar/158th title ;) :p
And the reason I never asked about titles was because somebody else had just registered and asked the same thing...so I learned from their mistake :D
-
Hehe :D Back when I was a newbie I asked too, I think they forgave me for that... :p
Now I have a nice title and avatar :)

But that's cuz you're a Node War Moderator...
-
So? :p
-
Thunder keeps changing his Avatar though...
-
What's your point? I'm an admin - we're allowed to do that :p
-
Indeed. ;)
Funnily enough, I haven't made a new avatar for myself for... a while. Which might be a good idea. I did make this for my sig, though... but we don't allowe images in sigs. I might see what I can do about that... :devilidea
(http://www.3dap.com/hlp/staff/setekh/a2e-sig.jpg)
-
Oooh, allowing them would be awesome, I even have one prepped :p
-
So long as there's a size limit of something like 500x100... I'm thinking of all 56K users here...
-
So they're allowed if they're small? (filesize) If so do you have img tagging active in sigs?
-
Small in size and filesize - filesize because I'd rather read the forum threads than look at someones oh-so-pretty image once. Size because large images have larger filesize and there's no need to have them that big anyway :nod:

Like me...How about only Steak gets to post his really pretty one in his siggy :D :rolleyes: :doubt:
-
Decision's been made: no. ;) It would just be too much to moderate people's sigs. Unless, of course, you guys can present a compelling enough argument to convince us otherwise. :)
-
Yeah, we're open to persuasion - it'd better be a good arguement though ;)

a good one: allow it and I make the Aquila :p
No, actually, I never put any pics in my sig, so I don't caaaaaaaare :D
-
This was posted on the SSC forums a few months ago:
Zig pics!? Bah! Back in my day.. all we had were ASCII zigs! None of this JPG, PNG, GIF crap! We were REAL men in a REAL war! None of the pansy-*** crap they call "war" nowadays....
:D
-
Well, there is the 'show avatar' and the 'show url instead of image' options in everyone's, options.
Could always try to edit in a 'display image in users signatures?:yes/no' option as well.
It'd give me a reason to finish the station I had created awhile back.
-
Simple:
{
allowsigimage();
}
else
{
print("Naughty, naughty...");
}
?>
:D
