So I guess i have a long way to go... but anyone tell me if there are any rules or is the AVATAR assigned to me?

68 posts to go here :mrgreen :mrgreen

But then I've got to make a decision as to what I want!

Need a little more time to think about it :lol:

[K-man]

Now there's a thought :lol:

[JB22]

Size is basically the only restriction... the number of pixels allowed made it kind of tough for me...

[K-man]

I think I'm going to need some advice / help sorting the avatar.

Any volunteers??

[K-man]

I meant getting a pic to the right size to be able to post it, but thats not a bad idea!

[Spike]

Even more so that mortals only get 100x100 pixels. :lol:

[Valk]

Pay me $100 and I'll make it happen.:cool

[K-man]

$100 :shock: :shock:

I think I'll go with the poll option:lol:

Are there any file types that have lower density? The lowest pic I have so far is 12kb.

[K-man]

Thanks Artee. Downloading a trial of photoshop now.

[Valk]

Is that allowed?

Check the Moderator Handbook, page 34, Article VI, paragraph 3.

"Avatar creation is the sole responsibility of the user. If the user can not create an avatar, for whatever reason, then a Moderator or Administrator may perform said duty free of any compensation"

I believe you still have the old version of the handbook. I got the new one 3 days ago. The section you quoted got replaced with this:


"Abuse your position and power regularly to satisfy and inflate your ego.
Bribes, fees and other dirty tactics are all at your disposal."

[K-man]

I like Artee's version better :lol:

[Valk]

Yes, but his is outdated.

[K-man]

Did you ever get around to replying to that e-mail Valk??

[Spike]

What's a "trial"? :lol:

A bit late and out of context. :lol:

[K-man]

You know trial version, i.e. free :lol:

[Valk]

Did you ever get around to replying to that e-mail Valk??

Yes, but its obviously you didnt receive it.

Thats weird, I didnt get a delivery failure either.:?

[Spike]

And the full CS2 version isn't? :cool

[K-man]

Where would I find that??

[Spike]

this message will self edit in a minute or two.

[K-man]

Do I need additional software to run it and can I get that on free download also? Windows does not recognise the file type :x

[Spike]

Install it. It'll spring into action when you try download something.

I set maximum upload speed to about 2/3rds maximum.

[K-man]

Thank you kindly :D

Some downloads will be from other sites where you need to sign up first. If nothing happens or an error pops up you've probably found one - demonoid is one, good site though, keeps riff-raff out and has quality stuff.

Worth reading the comments before grabbing something.
