Request an Avatar from Marc Xavier

Marc Xavier · Post by **Marc Xavier** » 2003-04-06 05:37am

I'm in a creative mood, so I'm posting this here. If anyone wants me to make them an avatar, just ask. If you like, provide source pictures for me to use or just ask for something in general.

I did this one for Cpt Frank in a few minutes:

Once I make an avatar do not link them off my site. If I find out you are, I'll delete the file from my site, and then I will proceed to cut off your ears and feed them to you.

Good day.

Do you have anything of a combat medic? I'm going to paramedic school and a Guardsman doesn't suit me all that well...

Ein! What have we told you about slobbering all over the board members?

Well, ESB, I have 2 pics here for you. Tell me which one you like more:

Einhander Sn0m4n, I have 2 variations for you too. Here's the re-sizeto 65x65:

And here's one with a shadow I added, just for kicks.

Marc, what do you think would be a fitting avatar for me?
If you have no suggestions, then could you re-work my current one?

Have a very nice day.

Thanks, MX! You just made my Spacebattles av. Damn tiny size restrictions...

Well, since your title is "SD.Net's Resident Russian" I'd suggest something obviously Russian. Perhaps a Russian special ops officer (If I could find a picture of one) or something blatantly Soviet (but that's probably horribly overdone).

Perhaps something to do with one of the old Czars, I'm not sure. But if you'd like me to rework the avatar you have now I'd need to have a source picture (where'd you get that avatar from, and is there a larger version?).

Glad to oblige.

Well, you could use a variation on the Russian two-headed Eagle:

As for the current avater, the original is this:

Nothing terribly original, I'm afraid.

Have a very nice day.

Here's a bigger version of the eagle, if you can't make out the details in the previous pic:

Have a very nice day.

Got some treats here for ya. Here are two logo designs based off of the Russian two-headed eagle:

The first one has a red Imperial Logo kind of blended into a watermark.

The second one has a Russian flag.

I also tossed together an enhancement of your current WarCraft III themed logo:

In the process, I made a gag logo of WCIII with your name.

You're lucky you caught me during a bout of inspiration. Normally I wouldn’t go through so much trouble.

Wow, man!

Thanx a lot!

No problem.

So, folks. Any other requests? I wont be here all day, you know.

MX, I hereby nominate you the Official SDnet Avatar Boy!

Well I dunno about that

I mean I do much, much more than just make avatars. And I'm only making em now cuz I'm in the mood. Folks might get upset or confused if they find out the "SDnet Avatar Boy" isn't making avatars.

Perhaps ... "the most awesome guy in the universe" would be more appropriate.

I agree with the "Most Awesome Guy in the Universe."

Could you make something out of this?

If you need the source image I can dig it up somewhere

Sure, I could. But if you want to get better resolution than that I'd need a bigger source pic.

How's this? I made his gun into a hand-held turbolaser gun.

I can take off or change the words if you like. Any ideas, just let me know.

Brother-Captain Gaius · Post by **Brother-Captain Gaius** » 2003-04-06 07:44pm

That's awesome!

If you don't mind, could you change "turbolaser" to just "las"?

Post by **fgalkin** » 2003-04-06 07:46pm

MX, is this some sort of plot to take over the board? I mean, making all those avatars can't be without some evil reason.

Have a very nice day.

Curses! I've been exposed!

No, not really. In all honesty I'm trying to be helpful and make some friends here. A long time ago I got into a pretty bad argument with a bunch of people (some of which who probably frequent this board) and I'm doing this stuff as a sign of friendship and peace.
