Custom Avatars

[floppa21]

Quit yer whinin ya maggots! You got yer choice of 413 avatars??? I got a choice of none thank you very much. TF = Turnip Farmer I mean, how do you guys get those little vehicles next to your name anyways?

You have to make ten consecutive polite posts, going out of your way to help people and never mention banning anyone. So how come you haven't got one yet?

 

[floppa21]

Good one you mushy pea eater!

 

[Zwelgje]

And on top of that: you've got your Jay Leno smilie above all of your posts so what do you need an avatar for?

Civish feel? Ok let me see let us take a count on just this thread on who's avators are not civish:
awb, floppa(sorta), K-D, ME?smash who stole MY avator , Rodgers, Corn, Gonzo.
I think that point is moot.

The star Trek units come from a scenarion for Civ 2 I believe...Although the arguement could be used for other Avators.

 

[duke o' york]

Well if you all want to write scenarios that have your custom avatars of choice as units then TF may reconsider. But they'd better be good scenarios! I can see that a FFVI scenario would be possible if Kefka is determined enough - might even be quite good now I come to think of it. Maybe like the Moria scenario by Favoured Flight. Questy. And if that's not a word then it ought to be!

My avatar is VERY Civish.

I think custom avatars are crap, because they ruin the Civish feel of CFC, like TF said.
That's MY opinion, though.

You know what, now that I've thought about it probably is a bad idea. Though I think as a small compromise FavouredFlights Lord of the Rings units should be added to the collection. With his permission of course....

 

[gonzo_for_civ]

Well, you should ask TF.

 

[anarchywrksbest]

I'm scared to ask him

 

[Ohwell]

I got my avatar through a few days of begging TF, it can't hurt

Fortune favours the brave.

Besides what's the worst that could happen?

 

[anarchywrksbest]

OK I have asked him, lets see what hap.................

 

[gonzo_for_civ]

I don't think he'll cut your throat quite yet since you are young. Ask again in a few months and he might just kill you!

That is the biggest load of rubbish!!! Civish feel...right!

Custom Avatars!! Whoohoo!

 

[Fez_Monk]

I am all for custom avatars!


OK, that was probably the 100th time I've said that.

Custom avatars work well at Gamecatcher, and I see no reason why they won't work here. Thunderfall can set rules and such for the use of them.

Oh the other reason, is that they can be ugly, and an example of Poly was used once...

I can't stand poly because of their avatars. If they are implemented, they should be small, and not disrupt formatting of pages. I love how they work at GC.
