You missed the point like Vader missed the banshee, your whole argument is covered in bees.
Stop sending me group invites -blam!-s!

Stosh deals with backgrounds, graphics and avatars so take it up with him.

There are plenty of things and features I'd like to see first before a new avatar option is introduced.
Not trying to be ignorant, but what matters/features would be more needed?
I said I'd rather see other stuff first, like tweaks to the recent forum update, a theme builder, expanded group functionality, etc.

Hello :)

This is a quote from my other thread. I posted it here because TGP locked mine (sorry 'bout that ;)) Hope you guys like mine.

I just suddenly wondered why it's not an option to have your rank symbol as your Avatar. I can't think of any way that it can cause any problems.

It would be like when you select your in-game emblem or your current armor combination to be your Avatar.

I have created a pic of this emblem for a better visual. I did some Photoshop on it to make it look more elegant.

well i think it's a good idea but it doesn't seem to be wow gotta have it. I mean it would be cool to link your rank to a background. *light bulb over head* *hint* *hint*

Notice how all the avatars they have now are somewhat related to Bungie? Halo, Marathon, etc.
You just have....an eagle? Umm...Some military rank , and oh wow you're breaking new ground there, another military rank. If you have any Bungie related avatar ideas redeem yourself by crankin' em' out bud.
You're saying rank insignias made by Bungie for their game Halo 3 aren't Bungie related?

I fail to see the logic and common sense in your argument.

I think it's a good idea. Alternativly, they could have an option on the avitar page that simply sais "show my halo 3 rank"

Wow. glitch since when am I a heroic member?...

not that I'm complaining.

I think a picture you took in the game should be able to be used as an avatar

Try using anti-aliasing, and blur to minimize the pixels.

I have an idea that we should be able to use our rank symbol, as an avatar?

What do you think?
Here are examples:

I like that idea looks more interesting than the plan ones.
I really think this is a good idea and should happen.

People stop butchering the Photoshop effects and leave it alone.


How about we try something interesting.

[this one's different, i think it's not as blocky]
