Sprite War

[Ghost Who Walks]

I got this idea from my neighbors. A few years back, they had their lawn gnome (yes, they had a lawn gnome) stolen. For the next three months, pictures of the gnome came in the mail from strange places such as Paris and Victoria Falls and Wyoming (go figure that one out). So I've decided to have a little mock up of that funny situation.
Take your avatar sprite (if yours is a sprite, sorry guys) and use Photoshop/Microsoft paint and let's see who can come up with the best picture featuring their avatar. Since this is my thread, I guess I have to throw one together even though I have no experience.
Ahem.
Did you know Ghost Who Walks auditioned for the lead role in the award winning drama, The Pianist?
Observe the pilot movie poster:

[BigBadBrad]

well here's mine!!

[Ghost Who Walks]

I know there are many talented photoshop people with good senses of humor who frequent this forum. Don't make this thread a pathetic display of my lack of skill.
I'm a big fan of history.

Edit: I forgot to complement Brad. Good job!

Here' a pic of mine:

Clicky Here, Yo! (http://www.vgcats.com/vgc_comics/images/040112.jpg)

Although I guess I'm cheating, seeing as my avatar is form an episode of Scott Ramsoomair's VGCats comic strip...hehehehe...

[BigBadBrad]

Here is a better one

[lymerion]

Had to be done.

[Ghost Who Walks]

Something near and dear to my heart.

[Lycanthrope]

here's mine, in its own lovely environment. :p

[CHICAGO¤lollie]

Here's one from me.

Chicago in Chicago :rolleyes:
(No, not the movie)

[Ghost Who Walks]

Boo ya. Ogre Battle, 8-bit forum style.

[Joe Falco]

Uh oh, you used a sprite from Squidi's webcomic! Now his fist of anger and righteousness will come upon us all! Aieeee! ;)

[Flarecobra]

Later I'll put something up that I made. In the meantime, here's a little prank pulled on Black Mage.

Keep in mine that the redhead is a sprite version of me, and I do have a tendenicy to beat up on Black Mage.


(EDIT) Made something, however the colors got a little screwy, so the light grey tuned some strange shade of purple.

[Ghost Who Walks]

Behold my mad skillz.

[lymerion]

Final Fantasy... on the moon?

[BigBadBrad]

new one

[MC43]

Well... it might be Black Mage, but he is in my Avitar. As soon as my computer cooperates with me, I might do one of me, but for now...

The one card... (TO RULE THEM ALL!!) (http://www.hpphoto.com/servlet/LinkPhoto?GUID=66a13c6c-359f-4a90-6497-2d291d0d182b&size=)

[Sever"n"steal]

Well my avatar is Locke and here he is(plus some new enimies)

:All:lets see,Lets see,lets see!!!!

[Riak Karasawa]

sigh i wish i had photoshop

[CHICAGO¤lollie]

The cheapest place to get Photoshop is off the KaZaa Lite Networks... although it's not really that advisable because:
A) Piracy issues, and
B) It's over 200 Megs in size, so it's not download-friendly.

The easiest places to get Photoshop are:
A) From a friend,
B) From a friend's friend,
C) From your mum's brittish friend's daughter, or
D) From a shop*

*Please note that option #D from the second list is very costly. :rolleyes:

[Sever"n"steal]

I used paint.

:fighter: WHAT?!?

:thief: Cool...

[BlackDragon99]

Heres mine. By the way, love the final fantasy on the moon image, Imyerion.

[Sky Warrior Bob]

I honestly couldn't come up with a decent idea for this one. However, the many FF1 battle scenes helped me throw this one together...

My avatar is right under Drink, in case you're wondering... (And no, that doesn't imply anything to do with this picture...)

SWB

[a black mage]

"I wish I could get photo shop, but I don't know if its even compatible with this computer.........Thus I am avatarless" *crosses arms* "YEAH I'm pouting....its YOU'RE fault for making me jelous"

[Lockeownzj00]

I really dont want to use PA, but I have this Moogle parody of Google I made. I'm fairly good with photoshop, if I do say so myself. This is an easily-made example. I could show you other stuff, or make osmething if you want.

[Stover]

That makes me laugh. Mostly because its funny.

[BlackDragon99]

Gotta love the google parody, except for the lack of colors....

[Ghost Who Walks]

'Tis Art. (http://img13.photobucket.com/albums/v39/palinurus/ghostbackground.jpg)


Edit:
Also,
Here is a little something. (http://img13.photobucket.com/albums/v39/palinurus/trainplatform2_copy.jpg) Every avatar should have a background story. :)

[Rayinne]

Dang, all I've got is this.

[Mashirosen]

For Ghost Who Walks's bold Squidi reference, I hereby award him:

[RedMage]

Lockeownzj00 came out of the closet to say: "I could show you other stuff, or make osmething if you want."

The Last Supper with Red Mage in the middle and the other characters where you see fit, something I can use as a background.

[CHICAGO¤lollie]

Ghost got a medal!
Though it's hardly surprising ;)



Oh well, onwards with the so-called war!

For Ghost Who Walks's bold Squidi reference, I hereby award him:
Thank you. Thank you.
Here is my pitiful attempt at comedy. (http://img13.photobucket.com/albums/v39/palinurus/awardcomic.jpg)
