Hey! I wanna ask you something!
ColoJohnBoy, from where did you find your avatar? And who is the woman in the picture?...
It's PERFECT! :D
 
I vote for myself for best avatar, but only for April Fool's Day, when I switched to it temporarily.

For the other 365 days (it's a leap year, remember), I vote for sonofslim's power button:

More power to you, sonofslim!
 
Excellent job, Doctor Q. Your avatar is perfect.

thanks! i'd like to acknowledge the hard work and support of my manager, my agent, my producer, everyone back at the studio, and of course all my fans -- i couldn't do it without you!
 
Eye like mine!! I want to touch it up a bit, but I lost the original and I can't remember how I did it. :(

Actually, Son of slim's is one of the sweetest. I love those pulsing lights.

I'm sure glad nobody saw what you wrote before I edited that post. Funny, though, I hardly remember doing it. :confused:
 
Kiwi the iwiK has, hands down, the best avatar...

the kiwi bird that is diced into slices of kiwi fruit.
A++++ for originality :)

an honorable mention to etoiles... for graciously pointing me to this thread... THANKS!

:)

Doctor Q. You avatar is the absolute best!


Last edited by Doctor Q: Nice try, Dippo. I had to correct your post as well. We all know that my avatar is the best.

Not in any particular order:

agreenster

wdlove

rdowns
(static, but priceless!)

Sun Baked used to have this as his avatar, but there was more to it...much more!
This gal really looked good wearing milk...all of her!

PG-17
Now Sun Baked has gone from sex to violence...

PG-13
Who is the guy pounding Bill Gates into the ground?
 
hey i just noticed that Sun Baked has turned to a bit of the old ultra-violence. ;) but i still prefer the 'milk' 'tar. that was a good one! :D

Doctor Q, i wish i saw your 'Moderator' 'tar. did you still have 'MacRumors xxxx' under your name? wouldn't that have made people catch on?

and is it true that on April fools everyone was a Moderator?? damn! i can't believe i missed that!! :eek: :(

Yes, but somebody went and deleted the large version of the Sun Hi Lee tar, wasn't me -- so somebody finally complained about it. :(

Oh well, might as well stick with something violent for awhile again.

whos that guy with the same 'tar as wdlove? applematt? we've got to do something about that. the other day i thought wdlove was giving props to a movie about getting even with your ex via her mom. it's just not right to think that.

Woah slow down, a PM would do, no need to start industrial action/gang war ;)
Yeah we (7 of us) watched that video when we were drunk, thought it was the best thing since sliced bread (but in reality, nothings as good as sliced bread), now it's long-gone into "Secure Empty Trash" heaven. The post was just harmless fun, nothing more.

I have been caught off guard by this one too, i've learned to look for the telltale animation. But usually, post content is distinctive enough ;)

Lol, I'm not that bad am I?! Aside from the *cough*post-about-the-video*cough* and getting a bit narked a couple of weeks ago with everyone arguing over everything, almost all of my posts are on-topic and hopefully helpful or useful.

Doctor Q said:
There are no forum rules about similar avatars. It's just informal agreement among gentlemen and ladies that we try not to confuse each other. You could live with the slight confusion (it's only momentary, at least for me), PM AppleMatt and ask him if he'd be willing to differentiate it a little more, or change yours and let people get used to the new wdlove. You can also change your mind!

I've only just read this thread. I've always (since 1999 iirc) had the "Apple face" on all forums I'm a member of, it's just simpler to keep it the same...but..."AppleMatt's avatar has confused me several times" is enough for me to change it, the only other one I had was a power button but sonofslim's animated version is tonnes better. For the record, I've had the face on here for almost a year (since last mid-summer) I'm surprised it's only just come up. As for the thread topic, I think Rower_CPU's avatar is pretty good. Also Nermal's and aswitcher

edit: Ha! I've just read wdlove's thread about changing his 'tar and he said he's considering a "possibilities...medical" avatar...buggar!.
edit 2: How about this one? I just quickly knocked it up, it's only 8Kb. If anyone has a side-profile of saltwater fish (blue ring angels or firefish would be good) or knows of a good resource that'd be great.

AppleMatt
 
Actually, my favorite avatar would be Sun Baked's original Count Blah as well. +1

Oh, and neut's avatar has to be the most sickening of all. Every time I think of it/watch it, I get a cold feeling on the back of my throat, then feel sick. -1

S***, Doctor Q. is on a rampage!

:D thanks... feeling sick anyone? :p

i was actually wondering if anyone really disliked it... i know my last avatar:
72x72.gif
wasn't well liked. :(

i need a new one... just haven't got around to making it yet.


peace.
 
I did use the word medical in my thread, but not the word bugger.

I'm sorry that anyone would take a harsh attitude toward you.

I'm humbled that someone would list mine as a favorite. It seems that like our country the opinion of my Avatar is 50/50.

I think that Doctor Q is a great guy.

Lol, no. What I meant was that I was thinking of a new avatar and as I study medicine I'd make it medical...but your thread said you were thinking of a medical one. Seems we have the same 'tar-tastes, but you're willing to put effort in and get an animated one whereas I'm happy with a static image. I'll edit my previous post so it's more clear what I meant.

People don't always get on. One of the best and worst things about forums is that they bring people of all ages, cultures and beliefs together in one place. No biggie, it's not like I've been screamed out of the forum.

Doctor Q often seems to be a voice of reason in threads, and the April fools joke was top notch :D

AppleMatt
 
I've been out of town for two days, so it was certainly interesting to catch up with this thread today. I even notice that I editing a post by Dippo while I wasn't near a computer - how talented of me!

Here's the avatar I used on April Fool's day:

Maybe that's what AppleMatt should use so his avatar won't be similar to wdlove's. After all, I'm not using it any more! ;)

neut, seriously, put one of those blue USB turds as your avatar so I don't adopt a terminal illness.

peace.
 
Damnit, now I have to find another supplement to hold me over...

Errrrr..... a low quality animation of a hand on a stage person... yeah, I guess that'll hold me over for a few hours.
