Does anybody think that we might possibly get new avatars anytime soon? Or maybe even an option to upload your own avatar? I think it would be nice to have a few more because I see a lot of the same avatars all the time. So I think it would be pretty cool, for the sake of variety.

We actually just got a new wave of avatars awhile ago..

(By 'just' and 'awhile ago', I mean about a year)
We'll never get our own custom avatars though, sorry. Plenty of people on the forums have avatars they want to submit to the next update, but it seems like the Web Team isn't accepting any at the moment. We'll get some more, no worries. ;)

The site is getting a brand new update soon, with that update there's a chance we'll get new avatars since Halo 3 is right around the corner.

It would be nice to have a whole new set or Avatars. But I could never change.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet; what about Halo 3 in-game emblems?

There’s an excellent chance you’ll be able to use your Halo 3 emblem from Xbox Live as your B.net avatar.

Hmmm, let’s calculate the total unique number of Halo 2 emblems to get an estimate of how many Halo 3 emblem combinations there will be.

Primary emblem colour: 17
Secondary emblem colour: 16 (-1 since you used a colour for primary)
Emblems: 65
Toggle of emblems: 65
Emblem backgrounds: 15

Okay, so; 17x16x65x65x15 = 17 238 000 different combinations!

So when Halo 3 is released and the web team decides to allow emblems as B.net avatars, you’ll have roughly 17million different avatars….is that enough for you guys!?!

You know, I was just about to make a topic about this... Odd. O_o But yeah, new ones would be nice, along with custom ones. Or the ability to create the same emblems here that you can make in Halo 2.

Uhhhhhh we can already do that.

You can submit your own custom avatar for approval, but it will become open for public use.

FAQ EntryWhy not? Other sites let their users upload their own avatars.

We are not allowing custom avatars because inevitably it creates too many problems. Like it or not, plenty of people will upload things that are obscene, offensive and in violation of our code of conduct. We would then have to constantly police all of these files and spend all of our time making sure nobody was doing anything wrong. There's also the risk that certain files could break the site or cause unexpected behavior.

We will, however, let you guys create and submit avatars which could potentially be added to the existing library if they meet the criteria. These will become public domain, which means anyone can use them, they will not be personal.

If you want to create an avatar for Bungie.net, you should make an image file that is 90 pixels by 90 pixels and no more than 20 KB in size. The image should obviously fit our site – i.e. Bungie related in one way or another. We will review and IF we like it, we will add it to our library. Naturally we are trying to maintain quality standards for the site.

When your file is ready, you can send it to 7themes@bungie.com and we'll check it out. Please be patient, don't expect it to show up on our site immediately.

Here are the links to where I found this information.
Link 1
Link 2

NOTE: I do not know how accurate/old this info is. It may not be true anymore.

Wow, we can't have our own avvies because the moderators here are too damn lazy to do their job.

That's it, I'm leaving.

Bungie has used lots of member created avatars, why don't you create one and submit it instead of throwing a tantrum.

I have waited long enough on the promised improvements, that I don't think about them much anymore. Maybe we will get new avatars and themes once Halo 3 is released.

To tell you the truth, I always pictured it as a heroic escape from blue base, gallantly running across the dusty landscape of a forgotten alien world to secure victory for the Human race.

Thanks a bunch.
