Winna, you've got a PM mate.

Edit: TOTPD.

[Reply #161 on:]

Ok.

[Reply #162 on:]

1 custom avatar plz

[Reply #163 on:]

winna will want to see what you want to use first.

[Reply #164 on:]

Um, he's probably going to want the face of a creeper or the minecraft guy. TheWise is one of my friends from Uni, and he's currently obsessed with minecraft. More than I am. Seriously, he makes his girlfriend dress up as a minecraft spider and then hits her with a foam sword before making love to her. It's a little awkward to watch sometimes.

[Reply #165 on:]

He should post a picture of the avatar he likes or have one made for him.  Although, since he's a friend of yours, I'm of the assumption that he's at least semi-aware of the rules.

[Reply #166 on:]

tnuk?!?!?! you said if i let you dress up like a block of diamond and watch, you wouldn't say anything :P, would upload but ubuntu is being crazy again

[Reply #167 on:]

Well... for you to have a custom avatar you would eventually have to upload it to PEEL.  I usually go with imageshack to upload images for the internet?

[Reply #168 on:]

Imageshack SUCKS NOODLES!

Well, only for Malaysia anyway

[Reply #169 on:]

 Isn't that what you're supposed to do with noodles?

[Reply #170 on:]

Winna, would you please help me in changing my avatar to custom with this one here:

[Reply #171 on:]

Switched to png and transparent:

[Reply #172 on:]

Testing on grey background:


gifified (any different?)

[Reply #173 on:]

That's why everyone should use imgur or tinypic!

[Reply #174 on:]

sweet! so how do i upload it to PEEL?  I go through profile information and don't have the option to change it.

[Reply #175 on:]

You're going to the right place, you just have to wait for winna to enable it for you.

[Reply #176 on:]

Now, check your profile again.

I'd shoot for the .gif cause mArc is pretty specific about filesizes, and I didn't see a degradation of quality, but whichever is probably fine.

Out of curiosity... what's the picture about?

[Reply #177 on:]

Thanks to the both of you! 

The picture is the main character for a comic I'm putting together.  Basically, me in robot form. 

[Reply #178 on:]

Neat, I saw the full size picture in that one thread yesterday after I asked.

[Reply #179 on:]

How do I change avatars?

[Reply #180 on:]

Send a PM to Winna the person above you and he'll allow you to custom your own avatars if you know what you're doing.

[Reply #181 on:]

Check out this page.

I ask for users to send me an example of an avatar they plan on using.  This is so that I know they're aware of the guidelines and capable of following them.

There are a plethora of pool avatars to choose from as well.  All of these can be accessed from your profile page (as well as the custom avatar option if it is enabled for you).

[Reply #182 on:]

I've got a question... I am trying to upload a new custom avatar(on the correct format and such, I tried both: .gif and .png) it is 64x64 px. It's an image of myself which I drew futurama style.
But it won't upload somehow... I tried a few times, but it just won't replace my old custom avatar. 

[Reply #183 on:]

At least I can see it.

[Reply #184 on:]

It's a modified avatar of this image 

[Reply #185 on:]

The one you're trying to upload? 
Because this is the one I can see:

[Reply #186 on:]

Jep. That is a custom avatar, but It looks a bit low quality and I like to have something more spring-y now ^^

Trying to upload this one:

[Reply #187 on:]

The reason you couldn't see it is because the images are already cached in your browser.  After you upload your avatar, try right clicking on your avatar and clicking something like "view image" which should send you to just a view of your avatar.  If it's still the old one, try refreshing your browser to update the cache.

[Reply #188 on:]

I thought you had changed your avy but I wasn't 100% sure

[Reply #189 on:]

Ah! It was my browser cache, I can see it now ^^  thanks guys

[Reply #190 on:]

It looks good, Eternium

[Reply #191 on:]

Can I have this as my Avatar? I'm not sure how to make it clear, so if somebody could help with that, I'd appreciate it.
As for what it is, it's a drawing that I did of Skeleton Zoidberg. Why would I draw that?
.........Some things are meant not to be understood. Even by the person who draws them.

[Reply #192 on:]

Yes, it's possible for you to have that, as long as it follows the rules.

If you want somebody to avatarize it though, it might be helpful if you include a copy of the original; I'm assuming here that there's a much larger copy of it.

[Reply #193 on:]

I would like one Paddy the Pelican please.

Just the pelican, cropped. The words don't need to be there because he is already so recognisable.

[Reply #194 on:]

I didn't recognize him

[Reply #195 on:]

I didn't recognize him

Good one, Randi! You jokester, you.

I'd nominate you for POTM for THAT gem, but your name isn't Scarecrow.

[Reply #196 on:]

EDIT--actually, I think i'll just stick with my current avatar. Please pay no attention to this now pointless post.

[Reply #197 on:]

I still want a Paddy the Pelican avatar.

He's so dreamy.

[Reply #198 on:]

Frender, anyone?

[Reply #199 on:]

That's not Paddy the Pelican.
