Additions to the avatar gallery

I added some LOTR and Mortal Kombat avatars to the avatar gallery (viewable by clicking on the "Show Gallery" button at the bottom of your Profile screen). The gallery hasn't been changed in a long time (a couple of years IIRC), and I thought it could use some additions because I was starting to see certain avatars over and over.

If anyone else has any avatars they'd like to see added to the gallery, let me know. I understand that not everyone can scan or capture the image they want to use for their avatars, and quite a few people do seem to use the gallery avatars instead of making up their own.

Here are the LOTR avatars:

And here are the MK avatars:

What are you using to get the LotR avatars? DVD capture?

Pretty cool, I'd forgotten that there was an avatar gallery.

How did you capture the LotR ones?

DVD screencap with PowerDVD. It took quite a while to find a screenshot of Frodo where he wasn't either screaming or looking really gay.

:lol:

How about one where he's foaming at the mouth after being stuck by Shelob? I don't think there was a single Brokeback Mount Doom variant that didn't make fun of that!

Now that I think of it .... we could force such an avatar on trolls ...

Hey, if you took screencaps from Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, you could get like 80 more avatars. Image

You took an avatar for that loser Arwen and not Eowyn? Not that I'm particularly interested in having such an avatar, I'm just disapointed you missed her.

This is about the least gay you'll get for Frodo:

A Klingon D7, a Connie, (first version and the refit), an Excelsior, and a Miranda - they'd all be nice little contributions in my opinion. The Romulan BoP and the Klingon BoP as well. And Spacedock.

Of course you could be thinking of wet navy ships.

I'd say that's a pretty gay Frodo, but i think that's just a function of the character.

That's pretty cool actually, if you remove those annoying red letters...

I challenge you to find a less gay pic of Frodo. If you can I'll eat my hat. :wink:

The premise of my argument is that there are no less-gay pictures, and that even this "least gay" picture is remarkably gay. So, your hat is safe.

That's a relief, I like my hat.

We need some avatars for Warhammer 40K.

Nope, spaceships.
Several of those are at the top of my "would like to see" list, too, especially the D7.

He's not interested in that stuff, I fear... you'd have to ask one of the moderators who actually likes it to do that :P

I didn't mention the D7 idly. :)
