Part II: Choose OldPhil's Avatar!

Postby Mithrandir » Wed Oct 22, 2003 1:14 pm

OK. We've got a substantial number (6) of pictures to choose from. Here are the choices (in cronological order).

1. Some dude from Akira.
Image

2. A wizard drawn by EireWolf (Based on Gandalf).
(edit: Snipped.)

3. Miagi-San (Mr. Miagi from The Karate Kid).
Image

4. Obi-Wan Kenobi (From Star Wars).
Image

5. Gandalf the Grey
Image

6. Soma Cruz (From Castlevania, evidently)
Image

7. Other (Write in for a different picture)

8. Abstainer (I don't think you should change the avitar)

There you have it. Choose away!

Hmm, I couldn't decide between Wolf's pic and Obi-Wan ... so I voted for both. :sweat:

Just a note.... the guy from Castlevania would be ok, if there was a beard.... I'm leaning toward Gandalf, but I'm not so sure about that picture, maybe we can find a slightly better one, maybe more of a face-shot?

I would've chosen Gandalf the Grey and Obi Wan, but I chose Gandalf instead. After the fact I was thinking, "Hmmm. Maybe I could have gone for Obi Wan too." Sooo... Go Gandalf! :sweat:

Bah... I meant to vote "Other" but the stoopid punch card was too hard to understand!

Dang... no hanging chad!

Why not try these avatars? >;2)

Hey Gyp: That's why I made them check boxes! So people could select more that one.

DaneJovax: I think if I had my avatar as a cat on the crapper I'd get banned. :lol:

The plato images, however, are intreguing.

He's not flipping anyone off... he's making a point... something you do tend to do around here... even if it's the wrong one! >;2D

Phil, um... you aren't even making sense, and on top of that, your 'sig is repeating quotes. Tsk Tsk.

I'm going off to pray for you now. Ja ne.

I think this proves that your new avatar should be Gandalf the Grey (or the White) in some form or other. But not my drawing, since it's actually based on a pic of Saruman... :evil:

Okay, I just visited a LOTR avatar site, and their avatars pretty much all sucked. So I'm going to try to make you a better Gandalf avatar. (Not that there's anything wrong with the one currently in the running, but someone mentioned they might prefer a closeup.)

Photoshop is my friend... :hug:

Alrighty, I made 8 new Gandalf avatars. IMHO, they're better than any I've seen on avatar sites. All I did was crop pictures and resize them.

Here they are:
