As per suggestion, I'm working on a new Yoda avatar to present to Mr. Michael Wong, and I want to get some feedback on my first concept.
This actually took awhile to get right in terms of the coloring, but what do people think? Or does anyone have suggestions for an entirely new direction?
Version 1
Version 2
Version 3
And before anyone (else @ fgalkin) asks if this is an evil plot to take over the boards, I assure you it is not.
If you want to request your own avatar, please refer here:

"Most Awesome Guy in the Universe" "proof that folks can become much better..."
"wait people being polite... am I sure I am logged into SDN?" ~Sometimes truth defies reason.
While waiting for replies in my avatar request thread, I tossed together an avatar for Master of Ossus as well:

I'd personally use PNG instead of GIF too.
I'll keep that in mind and try to size reduce. Although I suspected that Mike, being the owner of the site, could easily bypass the size limit if he so wished.

That's cool. Any suggestions? I wanted to do something with Yoda material but I have a limited amount of media to draw from. Obviously I want this to be good, whatever it turns out to be.

I like all of them, actually.

If my program is working right, they should all be that, exactly.

Personally, I really don't like any of them more than his current one.

I dislike them all, and no matter what the "Darth Wong" text should die fast. Its an avatar, and thus going to be directly under his username.

Yoda's not bad. But the BEST picture I ever saw, that made me laugh out loud, was a photoshopped pic of Mike's head on what I believe was the Emperor or Dooku's body, shooting lightning.
Mike had this funny grin on his face which made the picture hilarious.
Note: I'm semi-retired from the board, so if you need something, please be patient.
I PMed Mike a while back about borrowing the larger image he used for his avatar, and later replied back with three pictures of it I did in Photoshop.
Two of them were rather too funny-looking, but the first one wasn't too bad, so I'll post it here if anyone wants to see it:
Duuuude, that is the creepyest thing ever. Cool, though.
