I'll probably have a little spare time this week/weekend. I've noticed that we've got quite a few new people floating around here and to them I say:

WELCOME!

If any of you'd like an 'official' Free-DC avatar custom made to order ;), post here and give me some idea what you'd like.

These avatars are the metal framed ones you've seen many of us using. They usually (but not always) have one or two letters to match your username in them.

So if you want one, speak up now!

Ah! A bike related one! How about a picture of my living room full of disassembled motorcycle? ;) :D

I'll see what I can come up with. Would you like something generic or something for your bike specifically? Aren't you riding a GSX-R these days?

I ride a '98 GSXR750 yes :)

This is the linkage to a recent pic -

Speaking up

Yeah, thanks a lot.

How about the standard look with the letters "FC"
with a red color background?

Thanks again,

FC

If you are still free I would mind getting one of those nifty borders around my current avatar.

Dyyryath,

How will you get those avatars to us?
Post in this forum or what?

IIRC, he will modify your account himself. That is what he did with mine at least.

Dyyryath
09-28-2002, 03:13 PM
OK, it's taken a bit longer than expected, but I'll be making avatars today.

When they're ready, I'll uplaod them to the board and update your account for you. If anyone's not happy with theirs, or they want some changes made to it, post here or shoot me an email or PM and I'll take care of it. :thumbs:

Dyyryath
09-28-2002, 06:01 PM
Ah, I see Jim's already handled frag's avatar! Outstanding. I've uploaded the other two...

If anyone else needs one, now's the time to let us know...

Dyyryath,

Wow, thanks a lot, I love it.

HI,

Thanks,
Wirthi

Hey there Stats Guy...can I get one? If I can...I'd love a Tyr rune...basically like the up arrow on your keyboard.

Just so you can thank the right guy, you guys should know that JTrinkle is helping me with the avatars now.

I've given him my base artwork to use as a template and he's taken it and run with it! He's a modest one, though, so he tends to just make them and not let anyone know who actually did the work. ;)

wirthi and Tyrfang were both done by Jim and they look great!

Thanks, Jim. :thumbs:

hi!

all the avatars dyyryath created are looking great!

i'd like to have one too!

is it possible to have the "the-mk" in blue with an unobtrusive background? or could you insert that picture in any way (http://mitglied.lycos.de/the_mk/the_mk.gif) into the metal frame?

that would be great and i know it will look much better than the one i have now!

thanks!

Jammy
01-22-2003, 09:28 PM
I think that your avatar is quite classy looking myself!

You know, I think I'd like me one of them there avatars. Maybe something with a nice shiny "Z". Something tasteful, and in keeping with the office of president of the universe (retired). :D :D

...or whatever is hanging about that doesn't clash too badly...

Dyyryath
02-04-2003, 01:09 AM
OK, I'll be making avatars for SAK, TheMK, and TheOtherZaphod tomorrow morning.

Anybody else while I'm at it?

You are a gentleman, and a scholar. A man of boundless energy, and infinite good will. We don't always know where you are headed, but it is always certain that once you get there, you will have arrived!

Dyy,
You must be busy, but I found something that might be good for my avatar. See Tiger

Thanks

02-20-2003, 03:24 PM
Heh, I got sidetracked. :)
I've made a couple of them already. I'll work on the others as soon as I get home today. I should have them uploaded tonight.

Sorry for the delay. Sometimes you guys are gonna have to stay on me about stuff like this. ;) :D

I know I'm speaking for a lot of people when I say "Thanks" for all the hard work that you do for everybody.

Got some of the new avatars uploaded tonight. If anyone wants something 'modified' on theirs, let me know.

Wedge: I tried to get you an X-Wing, buddy, but it just wasn't going to happen. It'd have been too small to be recognizable. Hope the stylized W works for you. If not, let me know.

MK: You had similar issues. There just wasn't much room for the width of your whole avatar so I had to trim it some. Also, if you want a different background color (other than white), let me know.

MrTRS: I like the way yours turned out.

Zaphod: I like the way yours turned out, too. Good color scheme (http://www.zerothelement.com). :D If you don't like the lettering style, let me know.

Tax Bracket: I think yours worked out nicely, too.

Excellent work as always. Thanks so much. I have uploaded an extra 2 million DF structures in honor of the occasion. I really like the font; it strikes me as sort of neo-retro-modern:D :confused: .

MrTRS
02-25-2003, 07:13 PM
the-mk,

How do you make your signature use small font.
I looked at the vB code and tried what I thought would work and it didn't.
