Thanks Foley.
-- I liked Saucepans sketch of a person with a saucepan on his head. I've heard he drew it himself (great job). I like his wolf alot also.

Hacking into accounts is definitely not among my skills
or I'd find him a picture of a faberge egg to be his avatar ....
We could let him be original and avatarless....

I actually very much like both your avatars, Mith and Lal. I'm glad you figured out how to do it. When I was trying to get an Avatar, I had the worst time making a picture small enough. But I've got the hang of it now, I think.
I know someone who could probably hack into his account... But I don't think he'd appreciate that. Why not some smooth, convincing talk? -- Folwren

When I saw it, it sent a shiver down my spine! piosenniel's avatar is awesome, just that glimmer of a face and glowing eyes. Is it Casper?

No, not Casper.
It's a combination of a couple of favorites of mine - anime/manga and the Harry Potter series. It's a chibi Snape. Fits in nicely, doesn't it, against the B-D's black background..... ~*~ Pio

pio, no casper...now that I look at it on my latop I can just make out hair. Darker contrast and lighting on the uni computers conceals the hair. A wonderfully freaky face.

lol. Pio's always reminds me of the girl in The Incredibles...I forget her name. Was it Violet? Her special power was the protective shield.

Why? It's especially the Great Mr. Himself himself (cf. Hookbill's location), and then I'd say he looks cool!

I quite like Lalaith's Miss Bianca avatar! The Rescuers was always one of my favorite movies as a child.

Interesting guess but sorry no, the Galadrim helmets don’t have full nasals (nose guard). Although you can't see the full face, you can see that it's longer. Again, interesting guess though. Yes, very interesting... ~Beleg

My last avatar was a screen capture from a UK Lost promo (it was Claire and Boone for you Lost fans). I was going to wait until the season is over, but since it ends on Wednesday and I found a new avatar and couldn't wait, I decided to change it. The new avatar is supposed to express my newly exposed wolvishness (so yes, it is an "evil Brinniel" avatar ). The picture I photoshopped from a movie poster about werewolves. And yes, though she may not be in full form, I promise the girl in the picture is a wolf.

I also like your avatar, very dark, very moody. I give it 5 stars *****

I suppose I should inform you all that this is my first ever avatar change, as noted in my signature.
Indeed, I've now lost that last one forever because I got it off some obscure site deep in its labyrinths and didn't save the file. Why am I getting so attached to it anyway? It's just a picture ... |
