Ok I am flying back home today..Ill post the results for last week as soon as I have some time.

We will try to post one of these topics once a day for your enjoyment.

These are the rules:

* RESOLUTION : The image can have any aspect ratio up to 800 x 600
* They can be done on any medium.
* If you wish, you can add a brief text description about your piece.
* Only original compositions. No "tributes" or plagiarizing, unless is it an integral part of the challenge.
* The topics will be posted every day between 10:00 - 12:00 am US EST.
* The artist also has to post total length of time it took (Thanks Clanger for the idea) and program used.
* Only final pieces can be posted on the thread. They must have been done AFTER the topic has been announced.
* Any piece caught breaking the rules will be taken off the thread.
* The topics will be picked at random from the list on this thread
(The author will be given credit). So guys keep them coming.
*You can add multiple entries, but please dont post WIP (Unless you intend to update them). NEW RULE!

Here's an avatar for 11th Door so he can come out an play with the rest of us.

It's something simple for that took about a half hour in GIMP. I'm sure that Alice can come up with something better. (WOW) (I also liked BoomDragon's Panda.)

I do have one question for csgirl. Does chewing on someone else's avatar count as a redesign, even if it was deserved?

ButchMakora
08-09-2005, 02:21 PM
i'm not sure - did i understand your question correct... but will try to explain:

that was a Preacher of Positive, he brings light and smiles, color and emotions to that grey life - many of us having during working weeks at the offices. so - he is a preacher. and a stick, i prefer to name it stave - is a weapon and an instrument - to help preacher - to explain positive to those - who don't get the point by words ;)))

(sorry for spelling and grammer, is it terrible or you even understood something?)

Your Avatar changed to that mess? How should I know a single panda has such an impact, man those are some hungry animals.

I hope my Avatar is safe...what the? Doomy?! Nooooo...! Somebody rescue him! Call the fire fighters, he's gonna blow!

You can't do that to a dragon! That species is so threatened with extinction it doesn't even exist in the first place. At least not in our dimensions. Damn you! :cry:

You gotta have some sympathy with the pandas. They have to eat alot of that stuff and I bet there is not much bamboo to be found here on cgtalk. He just asked if he could pose for me to help me redesign your avatar. I had no idea what he was going to do. I'm so sorry.
I wonder where that panda is now.

Man I hope my little dragon will get well soon, the doctors said his status is still critical. But he started to speak again, well one sentence only "does bamboo burn?"

Well not too well I guess but I wonder what he is up to.

reading the first words i sincerely felt a tinge of relieve.... i thought i had been a tad bit too rough. BUT! you better talk any thoughts of revenge out of your dragons mind or this will get really, really dirty.

The Vux
08-10-2005, 03:11 PM
had some spare time, so I did something for this topic aswell

took the avatars from:
Roberto, Gord Mc, doomdragon, CSGirl, Erilaz, Alice, Daw, Jebas, ButchMakora & Hexaditidom
and just remade them

hopefully you can se which avatars they are remakes of, but some can be a little bit harder to get like erilaz's, his cup is now a glass. and Butch's avatar is no more the preacher. no, this is the reaper whom is the total opposite of the preacher, he is the one that brings sadness boredom and the grey in our life (sometimes red) and he too has a weapon for those who doesn't get his message :D
rob is a hippie
and the middle dragon thingy is a combo of the dragons in dsg
