Avatar Upgrade

I'm not much for changing my avatar because I like how it helps people recognize me. Think of it more as a cleaner, stylized upgrade.

Why does the new sheep not chew its grass?

I'm too lazy to animate it. Perhaps I'll get to it later.

Err..no! But I do like the borg.

I nominate the last one (#4) to be the new avatar.

I vote for the christmas version. Simply, because soon the shops will start to display all the christmas crap again. Already looking forward to it.

hehehe... very funny

no-reply@allegro.cc (Pedro Avelar Gontijo) — Mon, 24 Apr 2006 20:24:29 +0000

Just animate it and it will be perfect. I didn't like the changes at first, but now I see it's much cleaner and better.
Your avatar is sooo cool, so nice and calm
And I'm too lazy to draw myself a worthy one.

@Mark Oates:
The borg one is funny. Pretty nice cartoony style in every one of them.

@23yrold3yrold:
Very funny! Still sporting a goatee in real life?

@dudaskank:
Nice to see you in a while, it's been...let's see...about half a year since your last post.

Are we all going to have an assimilated avatars now?

Additionally, 3c shows you thinking of C++, but there isn't any keyboard around.

Inphernic: I didn't know you had invented anime.
But then, I didn't mean to join teh gang... if you are going to sue me because of that I can stop doing it, you know?

Btw, X-G has stolen spellcaster's avatar.

Is that the mongler??

So you using that face is all just a big coincidence, right‽ I call shens. You have been found guilty of a second degree premeditated failure, and are hereby sentenced to 72 hours of Cotton Eye Joe and bee****.

no-reply@allegro.cc (m c) — Thu, 27 Apr 2006 17:47:12 +0000

Anime? Are those eyes actually from something?

Anime eyes are typically unnatrually gigantic and glassy, so i doubt it's just random to say that. Unfortunately a google image on x-g or Inphernic eyes didn't show anything usefull...

no-reply@allegro.cc (Pedro Avelar Gontijo) — Thu, 27 Apr 2006 23:12:53 +0000

jhuuskon: Yes, that is the mongler, just like here, posted even before the original mongler image... I like how X-G remembers the past

[edit]
Inphernic: Too sad for me.

no-reply@allegro.cc (Mark Oates) — Fri, 28 Apr 2006 03:06:49 +0000

I encourage any and all avatar variations, no matter what references they pertain to.

no-reply@allegro.cc (Bruce Perry) — Fri, 28 Apr 2006 05:03:27 +0000

Bah, how can you upgrade perfection?

no-reply@allegro.cc (jhuuskon) — Fri, 28 Apr 2006 12:36:17 +0000

If that's your idea of perfection, then the ugly english women and the english men who like 'em makes a lot more sense now.

jhuuskon: Avatars and women are different things. The avatar is perfect <3
I don't know any english women so I can't say a thing there...

Too fast! If you follow Dragonball Z, you'd figure out that in 1 post (episode), you'd say half of it, and only release it in your next post.

no-reply@allegro.cc (Mark Oates) — Tue, 02 May 2006 09:40:33 +0000

yeah, I never understood that. It's like in horror movies where the person just sits there and screams instead of running away.

no-reply@allegro.cc (Pedro Avelar Gontijo) — Tue, 02 May 2006 20:33:15 +0000

Maybe they rely too much on their natural defense methods... like um; they say you scream when scared so you'd scare your enemy off too... sooo... when the big dude with a big bloody chainsaw shows up, they just scream to death hoping they can turn the villains away, since even burning to ashes doesn't seem to work. Too bad for them it will usually just lead them to an even more gruesome death.
