Title: My little SCARECROW.
Post by: Hector Valdez on June 03, 2012, 12:44:45 AM
I made my new avatar myself, and I think that it turned out quite well. I kind of like the image of the Snake on the rock, and if you look real closely, you can see my signature in the top right corner of the image. I also gave my snake little pink tufts of hair, because I thought he looked cool like that. My dad called the picture a "picasso", for which I was flattered. <:-D

Also, I'm off from work today. Unfortunately, I have no gas. Bummer.

I was looking at your new avatar a few minutes ago, and had come to the tentative conclusion that it was some sort of dragon. So, not completely mistaken. I like it!  ;D

Your avatar looks very nice. Did you use photoshop? I have to admit, I was hoping to see a picture of a cute little reptile.  :P

Gimp is a great program. I used it before I got my laptop which had photoshop already on it. It is a very under loved program.

Not gonna lie, I wasn't sure what to expect when I saw the "My little snake" title. ;D

You naughty girl, you.

As for gimp being under appreciated, you can definitely say that again. It is truly versatile.

A similar thought was going thru my head, and I'm a little sorry I was wrong.  At least I could have understood that topic.

You could make your avatar up to 130x130 pixels so its easier to see it.
Larger pics are scaled down I think but I haven't tested the limits of this.

Actually, I completely redid my avatar to the burning scarecrow. I don't mind if Tank or any of the other mods will allow it because I already changed my mind, but if it's not too much trouble, I think the username of "The Burning Scarecrow" would be really cool!

Yeppers, this is a good one. And you can see it better too!

:edit: Actually, i think I would like to retain my current username of "RenegeReversi" Thanks!

You know the Monty Python film, where they did a spoof of king Arthur's story? "What's the optimal height for a scarecrow" is a question they should've asked, after that one about the speed of an unladen swallow...
