just wondering if...?

Eface · January 9th, 2002

well, the thing i'm wondering about is the pictures (avatar, logo, whatever....).

How many of you guys make 'em yourself, or screenshot the bastard, (or any other way of putting something on screen)?

how many of you guys are UNoriginal and copy stuff like that?
(i know, it don't apply to me, i only got like, 10 posts, including this one?)
just curiosety.

(moderators: if u feel that this is WAAAAAAY offtopic, than plz move this somewhere else...)

Okay, I took mine from a screen shot from the game Gauntlet Legends. The character is the Minotaur and is my favorite. Pelase do not use terms like "Bastard" here. I find such terms offensive and I am sure that others do too. Also, you're right, this really belongs in "Off Topic Discussion" so, being an Administrator, I'm going to move it there.
sincerely,

If you're going to say "B*stard," say "batard" instead. Everyone likes it more.

I get my avatars from all over - mostly, I just grab a pic from images.google.com and mess around with it in Photoshop.

I get my avatars by searching across the net and resizing/altering existing images or resizing/altering screenshots I've taken from DVDs.

my current one is from a MSX computer game

I got mine from Necrosaro of Dragon Warrior 4. I will get the real Esturk when I fight him, Esturk looks the same as Necrosaro but is a Blueish color. Basically I just took his body and cut the head off using Fireworks so that it could fit the dimensions of the avatar. I would of liked to put his whole body in though....

Neojag · January 9th, 2002

you dont say!

**Betamax** · January 9th, 2002

Mine was a 3d beta symbol created in word art, pasted into a gif and rotated a few times. However due to my distinct lack of any artistic talent I couldn't get it working right but neo helped with that part.

sights · January 9th, 2002

...err... mine is the symbol/logo of "Elite", an old 8-bit computer game, which also happens to be my all-time favorite game !! (I'm waaaay unoriginal - so what

)

Gk caught his chimp while it was resting after the cat viciously attacked it in a suprise attack (yelling, "Meowzai!"). I'm not sure why it's smiling...maybe it's all the syringes the cat was poking into him.
