Yes, but it raises an interesting issue: How the fuck are people going to get new avatars?

Look at stolb3rg right here - so much for Tweek's statement "people have avatars". He doesn't. As long as there's no thread for people to ask for help, it will cause a lot of incovience.
What do you want everyone to do? E-Mail the Avatars to Marc? Well, that's a fucking good idea.

Since it seems agreed that there are enough pool avatars, how about this thread is just for custom avatars and is only for the posting of a request for an avatar. Cut out the spam and commenting and only have one request for the upload, then wait?

Let's hope people are more sensible this time  :) I hope it doesn't degenerate in to another spamfest or the same few people wanting a new custom avatar every few weeks.

Jupp, what Sal said is right. It's already on the list, and in the zip I made, Otis.

Am I allowed to collect the custom wishes again, because last time it helped Slimmy a lot and made it easier for him.

Because it will probably be another couple of months before I get it uploaded, I think I'll post my new custom avy now:

Hopefully the new series will aired by the time my avy gets uploaded  ;)

Sorry stolb3rg, but this doesn't fit to Peel. It's not the picture, but its dimensions. I see you saw that, too.     :)

Find out why here

edit: hmm, the peelfaq seems to be down now    :(
Here is the checklist:

  • They must be a .gif
  • They must be 64x64 pixels in size
  • They must be transparent
  • They can not be animated
  • Should be no greater then 3.4KB
  • Should be scanned, no cutting out from framegrabs
  • Should be of a decent quality, bad avatars will not be uploaded
  • Should face the right
To the others: Sorry that I commented on that

stolb3rg, there is no GIF because of a patent that UNISYS held on the compression algorithm LZW held up until recently.  (LZW is the compression used by GIF, and compress)  Just save it as a PNG, making sure you have it in "Indexed" colour (if you're using GIMP), first.  IIRC, you're allowed to use PNGs, but most people use GIFs.  There's a big long argument on the GIF vs. PNG wars, but PNG wins on all but the animation front.  (For which there is a lesser known MNG format)

Oh yeah, slimmy, I remember writing something to fix this avatar problem about three months ago.  All it needed was a bit of tweaking to work with UBB (as it's closed source, so I don't know how it handles it's flat files).  I'll find it if you want me to.

I don't think that avatar is going to get uploaded simply because of the nature of it. It's a very distracting avatar, and not transparent in the least bit. Hate to break your bubble.

He has tried to explain it many times. I.e. in the closed Avatar-comic thread, or here when he asked to make this avatar. I've half seen one of these flash comics and... ... well let's just say I didn't like it, but he obviously does.

It's an incredibly stupid looking character that nobody really understands. ooy, no offence, but why are you trying to have it as your avatar when there are so many btter alternatives?

guys, not to butt in, but i seriously suggest we stop commenting and making pointless posts in this thread before it gets shut down. It happened to the last one and if this gets shut down, I wont get my new avatar, as will various other PEELers.

So i ask curtiously, please stop spamming up this thread.
