Add something to it that looks like it's from space. If you can think of something. I can't.

Black background with random stars and bits of space junk.

A black background with stars?

Exxxcellent.

Thanks

No worries mate :thumb:

I used PSP4, it is better for pixel drawing :) And don't worry, it is from 1996.

This is the best you will get out of me. My paint skills suck :D

You guys all jumped ship too early. :lol: Its still August for a little while still. I'm not changing until tomorrow. :D

Sorry... it is the First of September here :D Well, ok, 20 minutes until that but who cares... ;)

You know I'll never abandon you Rob don't you? Now rep me :mad:

Dang Merri, yours is awesome. I'm curious how RD's will turn out. So far mine is a load of crap. I mean, everyone thinks theirs looks bad, but mine is. You guys saw the screen shots on the last page.

This is a great theme for this month though. The only holiday is Labor Day and that doesn't leave many options for avatars. At least the next few months are figured out for us.

PS - The first month I was here was July, did you guys do themes before then? I remember JR, RD and I kinda sparked up July into an avatar theme instead of just a couple people doing it, so I am guessing there weren't many people taking part in this type of thing before then. Am I correct?

Not that yours was bad but i had to make a few changes.

Yes, your correct. We did do the holiday themes last year but not during the regular months.

grilkip, I'll send you a Rep alright, -Rep since you didnt specify a positive one. ;) :lol: Just Kidding!

I must have made history for VBForums doing the regular month avatar trends :)

Yes.

No!!

He's jealous. Iggy'im.

All the unnecessary changes and updates have brought the system to it's knees, practically speaking. Rejoice!

Hand Drawn Version of Original Avatar :D

Which one is better? This one is definitely hand drawn :)


The green on the right looks pretty bad. Someone can fix it if they want :)

Where?

Who me? Its still August for me over here. :D

I don't want to mess my avatar.. I refuse! hmft. :mad:

I'm pissed. :mad: I spent an hour or so making mine hand drawen and this is what I came up with:
http://www.vbforums.com/attachment.p...chmentid=40206

I swear I drew every pixel by hand using the paintbrush. I simply was doing it in PaintShop Pro and using the original as a layer behind it as a guide. :D Its not cheating! ... Kinda... Anyway, it turned out TOO good and doens't look like I am participating in the theme at all. So I guess I will have to really do it by hand. I'm just mad that I spent so much time on it and it looks like I applied some filter/effect to it when really I drew every single pixel. :sick:


Heres what the original looks like:

Going by the job you did on your avatar EM I'd say your not even that far off...

Aaagh hmm, I guess this means I've got to put my money where my mouth is and get my own avatar that looks half way decent :sick:

Hey TPM. Gangsta Yoda Month is over. Hand draw your avatar and lets see what you got ;)

I'm aware of that, I just need to get an avatar too draw...
Any Ideas?

I've got another one... Simple but rocks! :cool:

lol you drew that?

Yap... MS Paint...

EM, can you rainbow the text as well?

Thanks.

Hey EM, You need to update the monthly theme in your sig.

What is the monthly theme for signatures? :confused:

Random avatars?

:lol: no i don't think there is. I was refering to the link in his sig that points people to the thread that is about the monthly theme.

I'm not sure how to make the vbf tags not work so that you can see them, so just quote that post and that should show all the tags that i used.
