    Yes, yes I do. Name changes make me sad. At least in your case, the name you changed to is inherently awesome for containing the word "pants".

    SHODAN > Pants.

    I don't even know what a SHODAN is. I do, however, know what pants are.

    First avatar here. I never changed the user title that goes with it.

    Where's your "radioactive" one?
    I posted it, didn't I? Maybe it's not showing up.

    Yup.

    EDIT:

    It was the only one showing when I looked at your post last time. But apparently now they show more than 1 icon. No wonder ther was so much white space.
    I see all (I think) now, including semi-nuclear icon...

    That's... that's cool. Whatever. I am merely the most powerful force in the Galaxy, no biggie. Just a Dark Lord of the Sith.

    Yeah, it seems that the thread went back to it's original direction while I was writing that post :)

    It's good to have a visual hint to identify people. Lack of an avatar can make it very hard for people to remember your posts or, indeed, who the hell you are. Takes a while before your name itself can be enough, and even the, when you change avatars people might still not realise it's still you right away. Takes some readjusting.

    I haven't yet got myself an avatar. I meant to start looking for one, but forgot. Maybe later.

    Very true. I was gonna say people should put their old avatars in their signatures when they change them, but pictures aren't allowed in signatures here for some reason (although animated smileys are?).

    Hey, I was exclusively a console gamer (with the very large exception of The Curse of Monkey Island) until very recently.

    I see your chart and raise you this image.

    Incidentally, if "Telltale forums" appeared in any sort of dictionary or encyclopedia, that's the image that would be next to the entry.

    I go to another forum where the topics tend to change after one or two posts. Granted, only one or two people go to that forum, but still.

    Did I mention that the only non-Nintendo consoles I own are the Sega Genesis and Atari 2600?

    The judges have let you know this makes not a single darn difference.

    I don't see why we should object, GuruGuru is pretty obviously guilty. I'd sentence him to either go on a PC gaming history sabbatical or be hanged, personally.
  • edited September 2010
    I kind of missed having a cool unique logo thing as my avatar, so I just decided to combine it with my eyevatar for the best of both worlds.

    So here's my new old avatar: eyevatarmarkii.png

    I used an avatar stolen from some guy on the HR*Wiki for a long while, imagine below without the Santa Hat.
    picture.php?albumid=167&pictureid=1186
    The hat was added for Xmas time. Then I used a crappy, vague avatar made in GIMP:
    picture.php?albumid=167&pictureid=2039

    And now, I have a boring avatar of a game that looks interesting. Hooray.

    I just saw that Lennie Melvin has adopted an eyevatar. In before she comes in this thread to talk about it (and if she doesn't, she's BANNED).

    Pfft, I don't see why I should be the one being persecuted. If you guys have never played games like Star Fox Adventures or the Metroid Prime series, you don't know what gaming is and should be hanged yourselves.

    Congrats, you've gone from looking worried/paranoid to looking demonic. I personally liked your last non-eye avatar best. I like seeing people besides me using animated avatars.

    Really? If I saw someone else using my old avatar, it'd probably annoy me slightly. I wasn't sure if that was just me. I guess I'll switch back to it once the Eyevatar Movement (TM) fails to take over the world again.

    Of course we've played them, we're gamers, unlike some people who've never even heard of the single greatest villain in gaming history. :p

    No, I'm pretty sure I've heard of LeChuck.

    Just to take some of the heat off Guru, I started playing Deus Ex a few days ago and I've stopped playing it because I'm not really enjoying it. Maybe it's because I didn't play it when it first came out, who knows?

    I guess it bodes well for today's developers that some people enjoy modern games more than Deus Ex.

    That, or it bodes well for out-of-work psychiatrists that some people enjoy modern games more than Deus Ex.

    It was starting to feel annoying. anyways, I fixed it, but I got a screenie to remember it by. I can bring it back if I want, though.


    I don't know exactly how it happened, but I created a screenshot from the game with mspaint and gave it a 372x502 size. After saving it, I moved the part of the image I wanted to the top left corner and dragged the canvas to the size I wanted and resized the image to 50x50 (at least I think that's how I did it.) It seemed to have t same effect on the forums whether I uploaded it directly or linked to it via imageshack.

    I could tinker with it further and try to recreate it, but I think I've had enough fun for now.
