Would be really great if we could import individual avatar images instead of just the limited selection.......................... just a thought

Any smallest thing beneath yon rock out of men's knowing. Only nature can enslave man and only when the existence of each last entity is routed out and made to stand naked before him will he be properly suzerain of the earth."

It would be great.

The problem: You are basically trusting everyone on this site to not upload a picture of their own privates (or anything equally bad).

So we will have the power when the jerks on this site go away, or stop being jerks.

Until then, the limited selection will continue.

I realise this but if they allowed it only for linked accounts and threatened with serious action is abused it might be possible.

p.s i know this will never happen just want it to.

Phrog pilots, reckless and free. We would strap into our birds, set the engines on fire, and leave these earthly bonds with a chorus of WHOP WHOP WHOP. Akin to beating your chest and howling in defiance at the rest of the world.

Which is never. So the quick and dirty answer is: "It's never gonna happen."
There are lots of other ways to distinguish yourself from everybody else though.

First, it isn't really fair to only allow such avatars for Halo 2 players. There have been members here longer than you, who have been fans since Marathon or Myth.

Perhaps you don't realize just how many jerks there are on this site. Even if such avatars meant the member would be immediately blacklisted, there would be too many accounts that would need banning.

Think of it this way...does an avatar represent you and your life? It's a privialage not a right...and bungie cant trust everyone...jerks will be jerks.

I like bungie.net because it isn't cluttered with avatars, pets (do we really need online pets), emotions, and other stuff I usually find in forums.

Indeed.

We just need more avatars for the selection, preferably the Arbiter, Tartarus, other stuff. hundreds join each week, we need more avatars.

More selection would be good. Hunters should be rare.

Best. Mod. Ever.

Uploading your own avatars will never work. You can however, put new ones in for evaluation at this thred by Echo.

*Click* Psshhhhhhhh

CLICK HERE. It's a post I made recently about improvements, costum avatars were one of the sub-topics. As said by Archonos himself: "Incase anyone is unsure, there will never be costum avatars, or smielies on this site."

Basically, it could easily be taken advantage of, as I said in the post I made.
