Should I use this avatar?

His Divine Shadow · Post by **His Divine Shadow** » 2003-09-09 07:19am

It's got my actual face, or should I keep going with God?

Put shades on God.

But then you can't see his glowy eyes of doom.

Meh, when I tried to use my face as avatar people accused me of being in an ego trip (which incidentally I was). So, shame on you and stick with God.

They can glow through the shades.

Of all the people on this board, HDS, I think you can pull off using your own face as an avatar.

Whilst we are on the subject, I've made an alternate signature banner, I think I'll be using it on SA and keep my original one here though, anyway, this is only a rough idea of what I've got:

Use the picture of yourself. You've got a nice Agent of the System/Resevoir Dogs thing going in it.

Use your face, HDS. One recommendation: Tone down that glare just to the right of your face quite severely. If possible, try a subtraction gradient on it starting right on the edge if your face and getting darker as it goes to the right.

Cool. You look like a Matrix agent.

Hey HDS, you could use my face, and it would still be God!

Nah. The reflection looks sweet. Although yeah, an added light source or gradient would be good.

Weird, I use my own pic as an avatar all the time, and nobody really says a word. Maybe they expect it from me or something.

Anywho, HDS' current avatar is great, so there's no rush to change it just yet.

Go with God, HDS; go with God.

You're one of the last people I'd expect to say that.

The glint off his face looks great, but not that glare from the window that's causing it. I told him to dim the window, not the glint off his face

Make your face have glowy eyes!

I second that suggestion!!

His Divine Shadow · Post by **His Divine Shadow** » 2003-09-10 02:24am

I overrule that suggestion and then I sentence both of you to the gallows for exhibiting democracy like behaviour.

EDIT:
New version, tried making it darker on the right:

Frank, care to clarify which God you look like? I'll just assume you look like the Indian God Ganesha until you do.

See that, Mr Anderson..?

I say you should stick with God.

A Red X? I figured that. God was 404 ever since right after his son floated up into the sky two thousand years ago!

Red X? I see no red x, just me, in a state of undress, aroused. Sorry about your luck, Einy.
