Why thank you Eomer. I am quite fond of it myself.

Anywho, I like Durelin's latest Star Wars one. Well done, well done indeed.

Agreed! Very La-T-Da

Ainaserkewen · 09-08-2005, 11:08 PM

I stared at Durelin's for awhile trying to figure it out. It made me convulse with silent fits of laughter because it's the middle of the night and I don't want to wake anyone.

Holbytlass · 09-09-2005, 04:46 PM

Have you seen Feanor of the Peredhil's new one?!
I think it is a picture of her, with wicked changes to it. Vey scary, the eyes, the eyes!! (I admit I am a weany

)

Glirdan · 09-09-2005, 09:20 PM

I would still like to know what Oddy's avvie is. I have been pondering all things you guys have stated and I think I've come up with one.

It's a robot made to look like a catapult that can also be used as a gumball machine and an old gas pupm!!!

What do you think?

Orominuialwen · 09-09-2005, 09:26 PM

I quite like Fea's avatar, even though it's very creepy!

Ainaserkewen · 09-09-2005, 11:29 PM

I think yours is kinda my favourite right now Oromin. It's just so personal.

Orominuialwen · 09-09-2005, 11:34 PM

Thank you! I just thought that lots of people in WW all saying similar things about me was hilarious. The only problem is that now (especially late at night) that picture of myself really scares me. It looks like my eyes are moving. So I guess I really am creepy if I even scare myself.

Thank you very much. It made a brief appearance in a link in my signature, but I thought it was simply too cool to be subtle with. There is a bigger version on my deviantart page which can be accessed through Encai's Da Vinci thread, for anybody interested. The bigger it is, the cooler it looks.

Here ya go, Glirdan. It's (well, was) a show on Sci-fi called Mystery Science Theatre 3000. The premise was a couple of bad scientist launches a human into space (I think he was the janitor of the ship) and forces him and his robot-pals to watch cheesy 'B' movies. You watch it, too and you see the guy and robots at the bottom of your screen making funny comments and dialogues about the movie.

Glirdan · 09-11-2005, 07:47 AM

Awsome, thanks for clearing that up Holby!!

wilwarin538 · 09-12-2005, 06:16 PM

I like Cailin's a lot. It looks like the snow moth I spotted in WW8.

Nuranar · 09-12-2005, 09:11 PM

Fea's new outlawed skwerl is perfect. I need one just like it - but with crosshairs.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 09-13-2005, 02:59 PM

I do love that heart picture but I'm not sure it's particularly appropriate; especially at the expense of that which has become synonymous.

Fea loved it too, but she will be honoured in another fashion from now on.

I don't think I'll ever change this avatar again.

Kath · 09-13-2005, 03:06 PM

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 09-15-2005, 02:38 PM

I am in awe of Bêthberry's avatar. I wish I could meet such wondrous creatures.

May I ask where you found it, m'lady?

I really like Eomer's New/Old Avvie. I was missing it and a bit lost without it.

It really is almost like Linus' blanket, isn't it?

The Only Real Estel · 09-16-2005, 09:03 AM

Personally, I like mine pretty well. And that's bragging on Oddwen's great drawing, not myself.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 09-16-2005, 10:14 AM

I love mormegil's. The specs just complete it so well...

And B[diacritic]thberry's (

)... I've grown attached to it in just a short time. Where is it from, Beth?

Encaitare · 09-16-2005, 04:29 PM

Durelin's flute-playing dark angel is quite beautiful.

The Perky Ent · 09-16-2005, 06:45 PM

CYCLOPS!!!

<-- Big X-Men Fan

Than you Glirdan! The cyclops was much needed. Also, I really like Eomer's Snoopy. Big snoopy fan as well. I'm currently thinking of changing my avitar to a foxtrot icon (as Foxtrot is the comic i'm now obsessed with! )

Only time will tell

Glirdan · 09-16-2005, 06:49 PM

No problem Perky!!! Glad you like it!!!

I have other X-men avvie's as well, but I'm going to keep this one for the rest of the month.

The Perky Ent · 09-16-2005, 06:50 PM

I'm thinking of switching from Hobbes to...

Any thoughts?

Glirdan · 09-16-2005, 06:51 PM

FUNNY!!!! I LOVE what it says on it. "Orlando Bloom has ruined everything." It's funny but honestly, I think LotR was the only movie he was good in.

Kitanna · 09-16-2005, 08:12 PM

I love Foxtrot, Perky! But I also love Hobbes. But either one you choose I will love.

Gurthang · 09-17-2005, 12:13 AM

Way off topic:

Actually, I thought he did decent in Pirates of the Caribbean, but maybe that's just cause I like that movie a lot(not as much as LotR!).

Back on topic:

Perky: Calvin and Hobbes is probably the best comic strip ever! Foxtrot is up there on the list and would do well in an avatar. Yet I must say that I have grown very fond of your picture of Hobbes. I'll be sad if he goes...

Ainaserkewen · 09-17-2005, 02:35 AM

The thing I love about Hobbes in your avatar Perky is that he's looking up. I don't know why that's so great but it is. And even though the Foxtrot week that they devoted to LOTR was hilarious (I saved all those strips), Hobbes just defines you...I see that pic and I know it's you.

wilwarin538 · 09-17-2005, 05:51 AM

I would hate to see Hobbes go. He's adorable, and he seems to suit you.

I am very upset with TORE for changing his avvie. Its just not right. I loved the Aragorn pic, he was so cute.

I went through a lot of avatars in the past few months but I just ended up coming back to this one, its me, its the way a lot of you imagine me, so I will definetely keep it this time.

Kitanna · 09-17-2005, 10:55 PM

I just saw Fea's and dare I dream? Could it be a teenage mutant ninja turtle?

Feanor of the Peredhil · 09-17-2005, 11:10 PM

It could indeed. It could be a Raphael.
