Gifs are auto-converted to jpegs? That means no animated gifs, I guess.

Damn, I was just thinking about making one.

Animated avatars are the scourge of forumkind.

Why stop there?  Animated avatars are the scourge of mankind.

TRWTF is HTML is meant for *documents*. The original design was not meant to be styled. People seem to not understand that. It's like trying to treat eMail like a chat room. Just because it can be done doesn't mean it shouldn't be done.[/opinion]

Yeah, it's one of the cooler parts of this forum.  It often looks like nobody has custom avatars, and then you see Einsidler's googly eyes. 

 Anyway, I thought I'd get in on the fun.  I stole the gun from this IMDB still: http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0425112/DSC8432.jpg

The movie is 'Hot Fuzz', and I highly suggest it.

That was the first modified anonymous avatar I saw. I love it :D

You know what, b? I retreat my blanket statement. :)

Your Radiant Anonymous icon could be subtly made into an animation, where the rays just undulate & shimmer a little bit -- and it wouldn't be annoying.

So what's wrong with something like this:

Is she from a known series? or just random anime art?

Cave Story's Misery

Some flattering fanart

As fun as the ubiquitous Super Mario series is, it obscures the fact that, yes, even side scroller games can have plot. Involving, thought out plot, I mean.

This one looks worth a try.

Mine is the pink shirt guy...

I'm detecting three distinct strains of avatars that are variations on "gray forum guy".

In approximate order of appearance (i.e. order I noticed them in):

• "gray forum guy" with extra decorations
• "other color [texture, etc] forum guy"
  
• "gray other guy"

I'm not sure if mine fits into one of those categories.

Yes, but you created a derivative work.

It's a really fat grey guy now.

I'm not quite clear. 

I hereby designate this thread as suitable ground for amusing variations.

 

Bahaha North Bus.

I've got the wooden table and I was going to but I was too lazy to take a picture

 

...and mail it to alex so that he can scan it and set it as my avatar. 

A hand-crafted avatar.

 

Wait.

I'll use this.

Nice. This one has clearly the most style of all avatars on this board.

Alex is the owner of the site... I guess he has attachments enabled for admins only, to prevent abuse or something.

Salvadore Dali's remake of the Mona Lisa? 

Finally got around to one.  For some reason the grey anonymous guy just screams "Grover" at me.

Best I could do in 2 minutes. 

And I thought I was being all edgy and cool and shit. *pout*

Thowing mine in...

Mine was made before seeing this thread, but I was beaten to it by jvdl. I will change it soon, have to think of something else now!
