    I need more feedback, one person doesn't cut it. There are quite a few avatars, and doing them all in both versions is something I don't feel like doing. I'll leave this till tomorrow.

    Edit: The whole point of resizing these avs is because such graphics on a forum need to be in relatively the same size. Otherwise, it would look really chaotic and out of place.

    Actually, I'm turning to that belief myself. Like Jinxed said, avatars of different sizes will screw everything up. Too bad that the resizing has such an impact on quality though.

    A question: When pictures are being made smaller, will they always loose quality, or can different programs deliver different results? If so, someone here at the forum may have a program that can turn those avatars into proper size while maintaining the quality.

    Sorry, I don't have any adequate skills in picture-editing, just trying to reach for something at random.

    This is the best I can do.

    Edit: With some help from monkey, it works now. Expect to see new avatars tomorrow.

    Meh, its good, but its not that good.

    Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your efforts but I was looking forward to eventually getting the goggled helmet.

    Oh well, whats done is done, I do like your new avatar Jinxed

    PS. What exactly would I have to do to become a 'rare case' and get a custom avatar (yeah right, as if they would give me a custom avatar, well maybe if I kidnapped Bill Gates and then threatened to set him loose on the world again)

    You have to be somewhat liked and have at least 1000 posts.

    A custum avatar only comes to regulars (I don't have one because of my terrible past on this forum)

    Anyway, in order to earn one, you must show loyalty to this forum...show that you are WORTHY enough for one...

    Or...something like that.

    As good as it gets.

    I find it strange that none of you uses a Fallout avatar. There are a couple very nice ones.

    It's so rare that a definition cannot be provided. You'd probably have to be here at least a year, popular with pretty much everyone and have developed an online personality that demands one.

    Or something like that.

    That's because I changed the directories. Check the gallery.
