Avatar Creations

Way back when I first started out on the internet, i was given my name, accidentally, by an employee of mine while I was working in Wyoming. He didn't know it would end up getting back to me, and I really didn't mind (if you can't laugh a little at yourself.....). So when I went onto forums, I found the gorilla in the chair below. Of course, he didn't have the hat, the cigarette, the beer bottle, or the chair (i may have done other things over the years that i don't recall).

I love this gorilla. Its been with me in one form or another for a long time (although I have used many gorillas, obviously):

If you are interested, you can make the images take up the full back ground. The image you put in your avatar, put it in the background instead, then click update. Then, in the avatar, put this image:

files.abovetopsecret.com...

ETA for clarification: the image i link to above is a clear gif image. It is a trick that you use to extend the background all the way without impeding the image itself.

Not much on city scapes. But here is a ninja with a machine gun:

That's Snake Eyes from GI Joe and, yes, I do watch my kid's cartoons WAY too much.

Were you looking for something winterish? Like snow and ice fantasy? I really like the fall one you had, so maybe a twist on that theme if you like.

if you decide tomove away from animated.....

That is brilliant BFFT. I wonder if putting a darker, hellish style sky background would make the image better or spoil it?

Found some you might like...

I miss Agarta

He is the Leonardo of the clan - and a top bloke!

I'd be proud to call him my drinking partner - and coming from a sailor that's a BIG call.

(no disrespect to the Michelangelo's on this thread whom I have come to admire and respect )

Hello, my friends

I had to stop by and admire the new artwork.

Hello to the new faces and welcome to the friendliest thread on ATS.

Is it too early to start thinking about my winter look? Would it be an imposition to ask for ideas?

Much peace and many blessings to you all.

LOL - December for me (and 74Templar) is a bloody scorcher, so getting my head around your request has taken a whole lot of (extra) beer - but have no beer, I mean fear, I have persevered...........



This one is beautiful



I love these ones, I think they are worthy of M'lady

You have outdone yourself, m'lord! Consider them all taken!

Oh my goodness, I can change clothes all winter longer and never wear the same thing twice!!
