Anyone Feeling Creative?

[DrWho]

Help! My old ET avatar is no longer relevant to me. As you can see my photo editing skills are not so hot, so I though I call out to you talented folk here.

I mainly play the support class in BF2, so if that were somehow included that would be cool. I also found these Dr Who logos, which might be incorporated somehow.

I have to admit my knowledge of the actual Dr Who is quite limited, so the avatar need not be related to the show.

I am giving complete creative license here, so if you don't use the above ideas that is fine with me. Heck, if the avatar ends up being two frogs playing chess in tuxedos, and it somehow says Dr Who, that'd be fine by me.

I thank you kind sirs in advance,

Dr Who

Looking good. I love the guy posing with the gun, very nice. Could you maybe fill the corners with something? Or how about less purple... Otherwise absolutely love it. Thanks man!

I would say he needs to blend the colors of the army that is posing and the colors in the background.

right on. I'll do it Friday sometime. I had ISP issues and couldn't get to this InterWeb thingy not 15 minutes after I posted that first pic.

Hey, no problem SK. I just can't wait to get my new avatar, with or without the so called royalty color...

Note: I am expecting this this avatar to have some sort of magical H4X so I finaly stand a chance against the folllowing:
SpongeBob in a tank,
Dr.Strangelove in a chopper,
Stickboy's artillery,
or NV basically with any weapon at all....

Well, after my reformatting this weekend, I just got everything back on the harddrive including photoshop. Tell me where to go from here:

Do you like the silhouette? I thought "Dr. Who" is a mysterious name so I figured leaving a person hidden through backlighting would be kinda cool. Tell me what colours you want, do you want to get rid of the diamond, do you like the Doctor Who writing?


Is it too plain? I'm more than willing to make whatever you like, as I love this kind of thing, but I need feedback, *****!

want me to make it animated? the silhouette running and jumping? firing the AK?

I'm reconfiguring the first one I made with USA colours to match the uniform of the soldier...and some other variations...




*accompanying sig pic maybe?

Too much orange?

I've got A.D.D. so you'd better stop me to tell me what you like in your choice of colours, schemes, whathaveyou, before I go crazy. ;)

Sweet Jebus man! The second one is awsome for a signature line, and I like where you are going with the square one. I really like the new font, and the idea of silhouette guy, although I think I liked the crouching pose better. What are your thoughts on filling the back of the avatar with black to match the sig, and making the guy with the gun white? And can you make the diamond that same cool orange? Animation could be very cool, feel free to go nuts, but maybe nothing that'll cause epileptics to go crazy...

Anyways, keep up the awsome work!

test 1:

I'll see if I can get the guy to fire a few hundred rounds into some poor *******, like Seminole or Astro. hehehe Animation isn't my strong point. I'll have to play with it later tonight.

Oh, and the sig pic isn't mine, I found it on the Internet on a random search for "doctor who". I'll make a new one for ya if ya wish as well. I don't like to plagerise much. :D I have fun doing these things.

Hey, sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner. Just started a new job and have been very busy. I really like your test 1; my only concern is is the text hard to read? I don't think it is too bad, and I like the purple on orange. Animation would be cool if you feel like giving it a shot. Also, a signature line with some combination of the same colors would be neat. Anyways, I really do appreciate you doing my bidding like this. I wonder where you draw the line....

Hell, there is no line to be drawn here. I am at the whim of my friends...imaginary, real or "internet". 'tis all good. You must know that I have a hard time NOT tinkering around with photoshop.


Give me a few days more and I'll see if I can get this damn animation series running. I'm having difficulty, but it's a learning process and I really want to know how to do it efficiently. Hence, don't think that I'm being "put out" or whatever the idiom is. It's no trouble and I'm going through the learning curve here.

Bear with me a few days, I'll continue. I'm getting busy this week's end so ...



... soon

More Cow Bell!!!

[SauerKraut]

Had a bit of um, interesting weekend and I just damn plain old forgot.

I'll get a fire lighted under my ass soon, Who.
