That one is full of win. I like the how all of the colors blend so that it's not an eye-sore.
Thanks. Good to know about lighting with avatars.

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".

There's some good stuff here, guys. D1Mik, the eyes in that avatar look like they belong in a Monty Python cartoon animation.

I've just finished what i like to call the 'Myth Pack':

Avatar 1 | Avatar 2 | Avatar 3
User skin 1 | User skin 2

That's some sweetness, even though i know nothing about myth, the whole pack is some serious sweetness
ps.
GP - ye i know about the eyes... found it holarious o_O
plust that one is just for fun, i don't think i'll be submitting it.

Also...
I really like the idea Gods Prophet presented.
The "pack" (3 - 5 avatars, 2 - 3 skins), it makes it a little bit more challanging by sticking to a theme but creative at the same time. I donno, just my opinion o_O
Personally that's the format i'll be following.

Any way...
OMG !
I was browsing the "active community screenshots"
and i ran into this pic by MessnerMan who unfortunately does not have a b.net account.
(i wanted to PM this person since he deserves most of the credit for taking the pic)

I've edited it since and it will be my first skin for my firs "pack".
The reason why i'm so excited is because it PERFECTLY fits as a skin if you take in to account the "gamertag" and "Avatar" and text in to concideration. Any way...

Thank You MessnerMan preview

Well, here is another set I just sent. Used primarily PNGs in the first set because transparent gifs are ugly as sin. So I modified the ones I thought were good with backgrounds and threw some new ones in. Any comments?

A skin is the picture on your B.net profile (behind the GT and avatar)

Well, I get the joke, but I can't support the defacing of the HHGTTG cover like that.

  • 04.04.2008 11:26 AM PDT

Heres one I just did for fun. I didn't want to start a whole thing like I did for the theme so I just used what I had on my computer.

I'm loving these everyone. Great work! Here's my attempted one. Personally, I like it, but I wouldn't use it myself. I am honestly against using the screenshots as something to work with. They just never look right unless it's scenery, in my opinion anyway.

Please?

Working on one right now. Though, it's getting tough to get everything to blend together.

In that one it looks like a stretch or resize instead of a crop.
