The same unpopular topic, Reborn.

Keeping with the funny images theme, If anyone wants to end their lives and can't quite decide how you want to do it, just pick up this book from any good bookstore! Only ?19.95!

A much clearer version is available here:

I'm so cheap, I just took the little icon from the LF logo and shrunk it down.

Mines is just a jumpy object with weird shapes. I think of it as an object for a level in Bublaria.

I liked the other one I used; it was some circles that look mesmerizing, but I had to change it.

I drew mine on paper, then scanned it and edited it in Paint Shop Pro.

I love home made avatars :)

*bumpity*

I like my new avatar and it was very difficult to get.

I first spotted this (it just scrolls past for about 1/2 a second) in the flash "Geeks In Love" that my friend sent me.  So, I downloaded the SWF and imported it into my copy of Flash (and it took a good 45 minutes -_-), found the frame, and copied it out.  Then, I made a new file and pasted it in.  I rotated it back to flat (it was a sideways picture on a bulletin board in the movie), then used the Export to Image function to make a larger version... 300dpi to be more specific.  Since Flash movies are vector, I could make it as big as that.  It's equivalent to 4000x2000 or so pixels.

Then I used Paint Shop Pro to cut out a section of the picture and downsize it to avatar size, and now it's here!  Whew!  If anyone wants the original 300dpi export, I could send it to you-- it's 20 MB (holy crap!) as a BMP and still 500kb in PNG.

Mine is now a very squashed 100% solution to mayhem 2. :winktounge:

I changed mine into a Tetris Attack Screenshot of 6-08. It's a level I used to hate, before I solved it.

This is in place until I find a better avatar.

I think my solution to boiler room was a lot different than that...

EDIT:? Changed my avatar, and the file DOES exist, but it's not showing up...

EDIT2:  Okay, so it only likes gifs.  Whatever the case, it has returned!

Just a completely random picture I had on my computer, that's all.

Mine is a picture of Rakdos The Defiler, a pretty good Magic card (trading card game for those who don't know). I might change it, though it does look pretty cool.

I basically searcched my computer for stuff, then picked a picture out. I made this from scratch in photoshop 6.0. As for mny signature, it really is a good question that even I don't know. Who is that guy?!

It's just not the same when it's no longer 'Avatars ... intresting fact', complete with typo and 74 pages. XD

Anyhow. I haven't really drawn any more Lemmings-related stuff since the last time I changed my avatar, so it's the same. I can't entirely remember that this was supposed to be, but I think it was pretty much random. It works for now.
