My new avatar kicks ass.

Where is your new avatar from, VestCunt? Reminds me of XZR on MSX.

Turbo D · 06/25/2008, 10:54 PM

It reminds me of a wizard and samus aaron mixed into one

But...I'm speechless.

Seriously though, where's that from?

Joe Redifer · 06/25/2008, 11:02 PM

Mine is still the best. I stare at it for at least two hours a day. Mine was voted "Best Avatar EVAR" on Entertainment Tonight as well as in Time Magazine. Shinobi should have wore some sunscreen!

Just like a rousing game of Hungry Hungry Hippos, this was a competition. Guyjin came closest to winning, but alas, you're all losers (with the possible exception of Joe Joe Joe Redifer).
Anyway, it's an enemy wizard from my favorite RPG of all time: Ultima Quest of the Avatar, NES version.

It's the new avatar appreesh thread. I'm not so conceited that I would start the "VestCunt's new avatar appreesh thread." Others are welcome to blow their own horns. BTW, did bust3dstr8 just put up a new one? I didn't notice it moving before.

nectarsis · 06/26/2008, 12:24 AM

No, my point was that was just a random pic not a new avvy...was left..bewildered...lol

Yeah, weird. Nintega did have it as his avatar for about 30 seconds though, which is why I posted my response.
~~Something to do with Don Imus and his "black Pacman" comments?~~

My avatar is a only 85% new since I've had it for a few weeks. Do you dudes like it? It was made in Photoshop from screenshots taken in MagicEngine.

Yes, but only the original 15%.

Your new avatar is really cool, VestCunt. I thought of it as a dragon warrior (one that could possibly perform magic) when I first looked at it. Bust3Dstr8 has his "sway and punch Kunio-Kun" icon for quite a while up to this point (I've noted to first see it back around April).

I quite agree (though Black Tiger's is a close competitor to the type of greatness that it has). It makes you look like a serious butt-kicker, even when joking. I wanted to try to best it in a staring contest, but have never gotten the chance to...I wonder what would happen if both of Shinobi's eyes were poked

It looks as if a dragon, that only stands on two legs and wingless, is holding an egg on its belly and is constantly turning around. I also thought of it as a plant (specifically a tree or some kind of bush) swaying in the wind when I first had a glimpse of it (maybe its from Dragon Egg or Lode Runner?).

It was good that you were able to make a topic such as this, VestCoat. Since I change my avatar monthly, it'll help to show the new icons I have for others to see, instead of needing to post in any given topic to do so (what do folks think of my current Dragon Spirit if they wish to give an opinion, also?).

Tatsujin · 06/26/2008, 03:13 AM

lol..no dragon so far. but a much more famous animal which symbols some power and strength.

Joe Redifer · 06/26/2008, 03:55 AM

Looks like the spray from a whale maybe.

Tatsujin · 06/26/2008, 04:33 AM

funny but very cold.

Tatsujin · 06/26/2008, 06:11 AM

new hint. it's a very small crop out of a game screen.

Ceti Alpha · 06/26/2008, 09:15 AM

I was thinking Dragon Warrior as well in regards to VestCunt's avatar.

As for Tupac-Land - negatron.

As for tats old avatar from the 2600.....

. I really like it though.

Alt-Nintega · 06/26/2008, 09:21 AM

How can your folks not appreciate my masterpiece? This is coming from the same people who laughed about this "Super Turbo Booster EX +Alpha".

Ceti Alpha · 06/26/2008, 09:44 AM

Don't get your knickers all in a knot Nintega.

We're just perplexed. Please explain the avatar.

Oh, nevermind. I get it now.

Ninja Spirit · 06/26/2008, 10:31 AM

To get your own animated gif made, all you need is a camcorder, or camstudio (for rip off youtube videos) and Windows Movie Maker if you have to do alot of trimming, make a 4 second movie and upload it at gifninja.com

For some reason my animated gifs seem to run at full speed on Firefox than on IE.

Does look rather antish doesn't it? It's actually from the cover of one of the most popular TG hucard titles

Obviously it's from The Legendary Axe, but cropped down to just the head reminds me more of the cover of one of the least popular TG titles (the mandible shape and eyes are not quite right for a spider).

Sinistron · 06/26/2008, 11:52 AM

Absolutely- and a spider should have eight eyes like this

while this sucker only has two.

It's a nice image but needs more personality. A fierce avatar is crucial if you hope to win any flame wars or subject other forum members to your will.

Quote from: Sinistron on 06/26/2008, 11:05 AMHow's my new one? Yay or nay?

Yay. I would loath to debate collection sizes, average game values, or Dreamcaster's shipping practices with such a ferocious visage.

From your link:

QuoteOverall I would be hard-pressed to find a better RPG than Ultima: Quest of the Avatar. On the NES, SNES, Genesis, and even PC Engine or any system for that matter! The game is rock solid with many twists and turns along the way to keep you leveling up and creating your own perfect world of Britannia.

bwahahaha!
