I am a penguin. Every day I boogie on down to the water, and eat fish. Once, while fishing in the deepest depths, I saw great Cthulhu... And he said to me "Shine, to thine own self be true. They can't tell you what to do once you've gone guru." Also, I should tell you, "slide".

I redid the background: Green MC v2

Any preferences?


I'd stick to the former.

Side note, Awesome OS, brother.

I'd stick to the former.

Side note, Awesome OS, brother.

One more thing: on the first one, is it too bright near the member info... should I darken the image a bit or is that that text easily read...?

I actually like that latter more. I find the background in Green MC v1 to be too distracting. Anyway, to give my opinion on your picture in regards to your question, I think you should darken the image because the member date information is a little hard to read in my opinion.

Use a image editor like GIMP, Photoshop, ect, and set the canvas size to what stosh specified in the OP.

If you're reading this, you need to stop stalking me. If you can't stop stalking me, you might as well go here.

Do we get a notification or something if our avatar was accepted, or do I have to wait until/if I see it available under the Profile Edit feature?

Here's two versions of Mister Chief I made, modeled after Frankie's painting of him. One has solid colors, while the other uses gradients.

Mr Chief01
Mr Chief02

I don't know if Stosh prefers transparent gifs or gifs with the forum background already on it, so I'm gonna send him both.

I think the first one is the best out of the two.

I think the avatars no one ever uses should be deleted.

I just downsized my Green Fire screenshot and sent it in for an avatar (and you can't see the stupid spawn point like in the screenshot). I hope it makes it, but I'm not counting on it.

Hey Stosh, are you adding my 2 user skins? You said you were in the PM you replied to me.

Or will they be added during the next site update? (Sorry if I'm pestering you)
