Hey guys, due to excessive usage of the Doughboy, I have decided to retire my old avatar in favor of my new one. People working on the ED may use this avatar, so now there will be some knowledge of whos on the team.

How do you like it?

I made it simple, just so I didnt cram too much into a 50*50 space

Now, how am I going to recognise you? Oh well, it's good to change avatars once in a while. I change mine all the time, but I kinda like my "pow" avatar (big fan of mario ).

It's ok. If I may critisize, it's kinda simple. Maybe you could add a screenshot of ED.

Yes I have played CS

And the reason I changed my avatar was cuz too many people had the doughboy and I didnt want to be confused with them.

This one, if someone not on the team uses it I can get pissed off

In my opinion, something like this would be more suiting for you:

Personally I like spinny things. But thats just me.

The piccy is ok, personally never liked the chubby boy with the <insert name here> gun in it's hands. Didn't even notice it was a gun.

Although an Avatar makes you unique and others can recognise you easily (subconsious thing methinks). With this in mind I wouldn't have everyone in your project have the same picture. Just gets too confusing when more than one of you is on a thread at one time. Why not change to an animated GIF, with the main pic flicking to another avatar pic every now and again? Just to keep things separate.

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

RPGamer, your a traitor against our plot for doughboys to take over the worl... ahem, never mind.

BTW, I've also come to think of you as a cute little doughboy with an AK-47. ROFL!

Oh, I have an idea for a Doughboy GIF! Why don't you invert the color of the doughboy's eyes! Could anyone point me to a GIF Image maker?

This is still Chessplaer! I just decided to spell my handle correctly!

Oh for gods sake, they are M16s not AK47s! And the one you have, Chessplayer, is obviously an army-class rifle-- I can't see what type from that distance-- good god, you couldn't mistake that for a machine gun from a mile!

No way! Are you aware of what AK-47s look like? Chessplayer is very obviously holding something completely different. I don't think it's an M16, but AK-47s are both smaller and have a totally different build.

I think the idea for the Avatar is a good one Rpg, it could unite your team members. Plus its great that even though its so small its easy enough to read without looking too boring Altho I will miss that cute lil doughboy

Bunnies aren't just cute like everybody supposes, They got them hoppy legs & twitchy little noses,
And what's with all the carrots? What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?

Hmmm. The avatar looks plain. Too plain. Maybe you oculd put a nice silohuette (sp?) in the background of a character.

However I'm still no fan of all these "team" projects as most fall into disrepair, but I've seen Eternal destiny continue for quite a while now. I think you may actually be able to pull it off

um... well... it's good to change every so often but I must say your current avatar really sucks ... maybe a picture in there with that text would help?

See, people now see me as a caffine crazed cat... so I blew him up as a way to retire him, although I'm sure we'll see more of him in the future. Just look to the left and let the animation play all the way through...
