    NbroszI quite like the night vision dragoon but that background glitch is annoying. As for the second one hardly anything is visible. Third one, now it’s a nice one but is it visible that it’s a dragoon? Btw I see that you changed your sig. Nice work.

    You have some good ones?


    He's the T-A Legend just like it says underneath his nick.

    Nice. Very nice. Very, very nice.

    To get rid of the glitch, try grabbing the frames you've got and looping them backwards. EG:
    The picture at the moment is:
    Frame 1
    Frame 2
    Frame 3
    Frame 4
    Frame 5

    So try:
    Frame 1
    Frame 2
    Frame 3
    Frame 4
    Frame 5
    Frame 4
    Frame 3
    Frame 2
    Frame 1

    It'll make it bigger (file size), but it should get rid of the glitch. Of course, the Dragoon will now be walking forwards and backwards, which might look even worse :/

    In the meantime. I am SO getting me a custom av now.

    Well, I figured if I looped the frames backwards, it would make it walk backwards. Okay, I will try it...

    Dragoon, yes, if you have ever played star craft, it is obvious that the third one is a dragoon. I thought it was the coolest one of the bunch, but I will work on the first one.

    I forgot your name, but I added a text effect. Tonight I will try to make it shoot the bow. Sorry I didnt already.

    Here is an avatar I made that is up for grabs: (if you can't understand it, it is a guy drinking a beer, and a spike goes through his head)

    And here is a signature base I made. You can use it if you want.

    Correct. You have to have at least 1000 posts on this board before you can get your own avatar, but you can get a custom signature at any given moment!

    By the way: DU, are you going to use that avatar I made for you? And Dragoon, if I take away that background glitch, will you use that avatar?

    I wrote earlier on that I'd like to get to 36 shot rifle and enjoy that for a while. Only then will I ask Jinxed to set up a custom av for me. It might very well be that dragoon you made but I can't guarantee I won't use anything else should I encounter some image that would suit me better. Therefore if making these avatars is a tough job rather than fun leave it for now and when I'll be switching to a custom one I'll ask you. I have saved them on my hdd so they won't be lost&forgotten. Oh yeah it might very well happen that Jinxed won't accept so many so big (size) avatars. I use Opera so they just load up once and then they get loaded from cache. People with IE and modems might get seriously pissed though so perhaps you should ask Jinxed if he'll accept them.
    Btw that cold fusion pic is great - I'll set it up as my sig. I'll just resize to make it smaller.

    I hope DU will get that shooting robot avatar - not only is it great&and seems to suit DU but also people will stop mixing us*


    *they might not stop mixing us.

    Okay... I will edit that nightvision avatar, so when I finish it and re-post it, save it again, so you will have the updated one.

    I really liked the smile face at first but now after seeing it in all those back2back post it looks kinda creepy :paranoid: I kinda expect it to pull out a knife any second and go to town.

    friend, is your sig supposed to be linked to a page? I'm looking for tips on icewind dale 2 character generation but gamefaqs hasn't come up with one for it yet.


    Isn't that smiley face a custom avatar?

    I haven't uploaded the files yet so I won't be linking the image to the site just yet. And what do you mean by character generation?

    As for the smiley face, I have to make a request to have a custom avatar. Although the smilie isn't my idea.
