Hey, do you think that we could use some new avatars? I mean I am getting pretty bored with beaker. Although it does remind me a lot of my Chem. class in school right now.

Just a though,

I am certainly open to new ones. I don't have the time to make them up myself right now though. Busy busy.

What about uploading your own avatar?
If kept within a certain amount of pixels wouldn't that make it realy personal? Something like the rogue-gallery?
Just a thought...

At one time officers could submit their own custom avatars as long as they were 45x45 pixels. I don't know if that still applies or not.

Peter,
Yes...provided they follow a style similar to the ones already used here. Not only in size but in makeup. No wierd symbols or such. People, creatures, etc.

I am certainly open to adding new avatars. People should feel free to submit them provided they won't get mad if we don't use them. I am pretty choosy about avatars.

And I doubt seriously I will allow direct uploads (see above).

hi Peter,
I did my own avatar and I believe you have more skills than me to do your own. Any photo resized in 45x45 pixels can be used as an avatar. You can send it to Jim via e-mail as your special avatar but you know he is really busy and will take a while to add it in your profile.
best regards
