View Full Version : Christmas (or other holidays!) Avatars

I don't know about the rest of you, but I do enjoy when people dress up their avatars for Christmas, or Chonukah, or Halloween or whatever holiday. I figured it would be ok, since there have been threads about avatars, to do something like that here.

I wanted to use this avatar (http://mywebpages.comcast.net/synkr0nized/synk100Av.jpg) for now, as it's what I'm using everywhere else, but it was too big for the filesize limitation -- I am currently being lazy and not converting it to smaller format. I'll get around to it. For now, I've got one I did for last year.

Edit -- I went ahead and compressed it to use it. I was using an older avatar (http://mywebpages.comcast.net/synkr0nized/LilithXmas.gif) as a place-holder.


Anyway, please share!

I'm planning on using a Holiday-esq avatar, as soon as I can find one that fits me.

If I can convice a friend to draw a holiday CT, I'll use it as an avatar.

Same goes for me with Cloud. If I can find one, or someone can draw one, I'll use it. ^_^

That's true. Maybe I could add "naughty" to the top......or get someone to do that for me.....

To the request thread!

Would a "Green, Stripped, Two-Assed Rabbit" Cheat count as holydayesque? If not I'm fresh out of ideas... I could try and draw myself one, but that would take effort.

I was lazy but since most people here probably don't remember TWC or the avatar I used for Christmas back then I think I'm safe to be cheesey. I took a picture of an actual ornament on my tree and there's my avatar.

I have a good idea. Why don't you use Jack Skellington as your avatar? When he's wearing a Santa Clause outfit that is. :P

As for me....I think I'll find a holiday avatar as well. ^_^

Well it's time to sprite Totsu with a santa hat. :D

Look at the li'l sprite candy cane! :D

I'll try something, but no promises!

To Totsumanu: And make him ask "Would you like that gift wrapped?"

Here's mine! It would be better if I had anything but paint to work with.

Meh...might as well do it, too.

Behold...the weakness of my art skills combine with the lack of power in paint gives you my holiday avatar.

That's a good idea. I just made a Druid sprite with a santa hat but that's also a good suggestion.

Yay! Christmas avatar for me! :D

Thanks to DruidoftheDead for the modifications, though we aren't completely sure who did the original sprite... ^^;;

I did one. It is my avatar right now. This is the product of 15 minutes of thinking and MS Paint. I'll do another, better one later.

And there's mine. I would have done more but I'm lazy as hell and this alone is better than any of you desire. Mwa ha ha ha haaaaah!

You know AB...I can almost imagine Christmas lights strewn over the robot...or maybe I'm just tired...

No, BMG!, I can see it too! I like it! :D

You might see a christmas avatar from me. Soon...

This is the closest thing I could find to fit me. Besides Jack Skellington is soooooo much greater than old saint nick.

Thanks for participating, everyone. I mean, I'm sure you would have anyway, but in the rare occurance that I actually start a thread, it's nice to get replies.

Not to mention that I'm enjoying the pictures.

Man Its so had to abandon my favorite avatar Hmm... I know... I ve got an idea...

(thinks about synkr0nized's avatar...and adds the fan service element)

Mmmm...Asuka Langley Sohryu in a skimpy Christmas outfit...

Yeah, I had the idea of decorating the "Metal Foot" and I might just do it, but right now, I'm lazy, I should be able to leave work now and eat and play video games, and I'm still thinking about Asuka in that revealing outfit.

Actually....
Last year, on other forums (in which I could use a large image size), I cropped from the skimpy-Santa outfit Asuka picture for my avatar (as I said above, I used Christmas lights Lilith-Rei here). Since then, I've used 100x100 on all forums, even if they allow large avatars. This year, one of my friends at clanBOB used the image I had used before for his Christmas avatar "to spite [me]." So, I had to "reply" with an original synkr0nized avatar -- this one makes use of Asuka in a much more Winter-esque outfit from a scan of her and Rei in Christmas-like clothes. It was the cover of a magazine as well as some other things.

Whew, that was long winded for no real reason.
I think I'll use the image you mentioned as my wallpaper once it's actually December.

I really like Druid's skeletal Santa list.

Thanks :) Spok did an awesome job on making it.
Thanks for the idea Elminster!

I think I'll keep it after the holidays are done.

Dude Totsu, that freakin' rocks! The consoles add a nice touch. ^_^

Ya I thought so too! I found a whole sheet of Nintendo sprites and just couldn't let it sit there. Plus what else do we all want for Christmas!!:D

Astral Harmony

Nah, I don't need it wrapped. It's for me, heh. Oh, do you have Super Mario RPG and Final Fantasy Mystic Quest?

Awww crap, now I gotta find some sort of Christmas Avatar for myself which I might have to stick with. :P

If I could find a Palm tree, and if I weren't lazy, I'd do a "Christmas in Cali" Avatar.

I'm no good, so I'll ask nicely for someone to turn my avatar into a christmas one. Ok now that I asked I'd like to now threaten you all into making one right.

Melfice
12-01-2004, 03:39 PM
Voila, Melfice is in the Christmas spirit!

I like it. But my funny-bone is broken, so I'm not sure about you guys.

I actually found a use for all those Roland sprites I have... recolors of the generic Hero class from Fire Emblem, but there's just something... can't place meh finger on it... but there's something about a guy about to hit something with a giant candy cane that makes me smile.

I added mistletoe to mine, in the classic overhanging position, because I like kissing the ladies, and I guess its Christmassy haha. Too bad it never works...darn.
