Bestest Avatar!

[jpark]

This is largely a content free thread  :-D (but that doesn't mean it belongs in the EQ2 forums  )

Previously, I would have voted Mi-Tes for best Avatar when she/he had the picture of a menacing looking baby with the caption 'For the Horde!" which split me right up.

Currently, however, I find myself amused and mesmerized by Righ's hybridization of WoW and Ipods :)

(For the record, my avatar is a photograph from Hubble taken just inside the event horizon of the nearest black hole)

Okay, so I vote for Righ.  What's your vote?

[schild]

You have an avatar? If it's what you say it is, I would expect a big black box, not a small one.

Edit: BTW, I just noticed your location is Pangea. Clever. How are you making posts from the past? GIVE US YOUR TECHNOLOGY.

[Strazos]

Maybe he's actually from the far Future, and the continents have moved back together....

[MrHat]

Wouldn't we already have his technology?

I gave it to the Mayans.  Didn't they share it with you? Wait when you guys made contact you...

Now get voting!

[Margalis]

I vote for myself.

[Samwise]

I vote for Nebu.   

[Fabricated]

I kinda dig Samwise's, but I think it comes from that comic or whatever I haven't ever found funny.

[schild]

Here's a slew of my old avatars:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Samwise]

Heh... S-Child.

[schild]

I don't get it.

[jpark]

I like the Ben Stiller one from your portfolio there Schild.  The caption you had wais funny.  What film is picture from?

Margalis - you can't vote for yourself.  So choose wisely - much rides on this informal poll   

[schild]

If you're talking about the Hebrew Hammer, that's not Ben Stiller. Linky.

[Paelos]

My favorite was Shockeye's with the hugely fat cat in the Superman outfit.

That and I like the dancing monkey. He's been dancing for years now.

[Signe]

Is there a prize?  If so, I also vote for Righ whose name should be added to the spellcheck. 

[jpark]

Last I heard - Schild was still working out the details of the prize 

(actually, would not be a bad idea to give the winner preferred seating on the next beta invite ticket that comes to f13  )

[Strazos]

Aww, now why do you have to put her on the spot like that?

[Shockeye]

My favorite was Shockeye's with the hugely fat cat in the Superman outfit.

Here's the original image.

[Signe]

That cat is wall-eyed!

[Viin]

Sorry, mine wins. Please send the prize to 555 17th St, Suite 1600, Denver, CO 80202. Thanks!

[schild]

Prize? Wha?

[MrHat]

Dude, you live downtown?

[Cheddar]

Sorry, mine wins. Please send the prize to 555 17th St, Suite 1600, Denver, CO 80202. Thanks!

I will use this information well.  Thank you.

[Zetleft]

I love Murgos's current one, who doesn't love Egg Shen, bus driver. 

[schild]

I did not change my avatar because of this thread. I changed it because it's Christmas Eve and nothing is more Christmas than Palpatine the Pope in a santa hat.

[Miasma]

Sorry, mine wins. Please send the prize to 555 17th St, Suite 1600, Denver, CO 80202. Thanks!

I will use this information well.  Thank you.

I'm mesmerized by that map.  It's like they had a nice, orderly grid system going and then some lunetic civil engineer decided "Aw fuck it, let's turn everything on a 45 degree angle just to mix things up"

I vote Supercat.
I also like Fabricated's, Morphiend's (even though I don't know what it's from) and at least one hundred and six of Signe's avatars.  If I didn't have animated gifs turned off I'd have voted Righ.

[Llava]

Idiot impressed by other idiot.

Sadly, it loses some detail in its current, tinier version.  The expressiveness is what makes it so funny to me.

Don Hertzfeldt has made all kinds of nice little avatars. I'm surprised Signe hasn't already used this one.  And I like this one a lot.

Anyways.

My vote goes to our resident Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer.

[schild]

Lol.

[Llava]

I do so hope that you've already seen Rejected.

I assumed that to be the case as soon as I arrived, but you posted that picture like you'd never seen it before.  Please tell me I'm wrong and a presumptuous asshole.

[schild]

Neg. Never seen it.

[Llava]

Good god, man.

Here.  Not great quality, I'm sure you can find a better one.

(And you can find "Ah L'Amour" easily on Google... it's the first match if you search for that title, I believe.  Much less refined than Rejected, but still good.)

[schild]

This one did me ok.

I've seen his stuff somewhere. I don't remember where. It's irrelevant. But ya, he's not foreign to me.

[Llava]

Thanks for that, never thought to check him out on Google Video before. Hadn't seen Genre before... eh.  Billy's Balloon, though, my god.  Forgot how funny that is.  If I was not lazy, I'd make an animated avatar of the two kids suspended in air by their balloons waving at each other.

[Shockeye]

Where's the picture of the Pope morphing into Palpatine that schild had for awhile?

[Viin]

I'm mesmerized by that map.  It's like they had a nice, orderly grid system going and then some lunetic civil engineer decided "Aw fuck it, let's turn everything on a 45 degree angle just to mix things up"

Yep, that's Denver. Wee! I think it might have had something to do with putting skyscrapers up with their broadsides into the winds from the mountains, so the 45'ed it to have the corners into the wind. I heard that at a cocktail party many years ago, so who knows if that's right or not.

My residence isn't actually downtown, but I do spend the vast majority of my waking hours at that address.
