AVATARS - AUG. 30 DEADLINE TO SUBMIT YOURS!

Honestly I think it would be a good idea to be able to choose an avatar from all teams including Ottawa and not just a few. I've often wondered what sense that made. As for custom downloadable avatars I see no need. Please fix this.

Thanks

Thats actually not that bad of an idea - though with a slight modification. Allowing uploads in the past have created a significant number of headaches for the admin types - people tend to take advantage and upload inappropriate photos.

So, how about this. You all have two weeks to get the word out to the forum users, everyone who wants to add an avatar, post a link to it here. Two weeks from today August 30th, I’ll lock this topic, grab all the graphics and upload ones that are deemed appropriate for public consumption.

Your post must contain only the URL to the avatar and nothing else, and the avatar must be a maximum of 80px by 80px and no less than 20px by 20px.

Whoa. First, I agree completely with a post by cflisthebest and now this. If I start hearing trumpets, I'll know the time of reckoning is near.....

Jett, what format can these be in? Will anything work besides jpeg and bmp?

Probably jpeg - I checked a couple of avatars on this page and they were both jpeg

jpeg, gif or png - preferably not bmp.

Hey, thanks Jett. Its really cool that you would do this, and so quickly.

I feel all warm and fuzzy knowing that you guys are listening :smiley:

Just for some more clarification since I am sure this will happen
Do you want the post to be like this

http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d18/Billy_Soup/saskatchewan_vintage_bigger.jpg

or just the URL

[url=http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d18/Billy_Soup/saskatchewan_vintage_bigger.jpg]http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d18/B ... bigger.jpg[/url]

Good point, Billy.

I'm already starting off by setting a bad example....repost coming, just the link.

DG, your images can't be bigger than 80x80.

i'm sure whatever they upload will be fine to me. :slight_smile:

Just the URL - I’m going to just filter this topic for URLs that contain images and then sift through them. Might not have them up on the 30th - depending on how many get submitted - as I’ll be doing it in my spare time.
