Avatars (Maybe)
« on: Monday, Mar 14, 2016 06:12 pm »
Sometimes I amuse myself making avatar images.  No promises (lots of work), but if you have something specific in mind ask and I will say if I can do it or not.

I do not think it is an exaggeration to say history is largely a history of inflation, usually inflations engineered by governments for the gain of governments.

While I love the Warthog dearly - they're fixed wing and no where near as mission flexible as my girl.

Detail is always a problem - maybe a silhouette on a faded Union Jack background?

An eyeball avatar image (not claimed):



If someone uses it, it'll be redimensioned by the forum software so it has dimensions 140px by 148px, or like this:

I surreptitiously snagged my avatar from the Internet.  I like eyes and this eyeball is tattooed with flowers and butterflies. So cool!  But, I don't want someone messaging me that I stole their eyeball.  :police:  So, if you could hook me up with a pretty feminine brown eye all my own, I'd be ever so grateful.  😊

Since there are a passel of Texans onboard, I thought I would try out one or two Texas-themed avatar images.  Here's one:



If you choose to use it as an avatar and hotlink to it from my photobucket account, it should end up looking like this:

Thanks!

Here's a very rough first attempt (I'll pm it to you as well):


I played around with trying to superimpose a few things on the iris but nothing seemed to work tonight.  I'll try again tomorrow.  If you have any ideas on what I should try, let me know.

Never do.  I'd just like to get it a little different.  Tell me what you think it needs.  Seriously, I really do want feedback, even if it's something like "it's just not for me" (I'd rather avoid naughty language, but anything else is helpful).
