What's your opinion on my new avatar?

In comparison to my old one on the bottom of this post. Is it an improvement?

Thanks! It took quite a bit of photoshopping, since I only had an image of one panel (the left side of the Lady of Pain's face).

Ah, Photoshop... such an excellent tool.

The PS gnome is very slick, and I particularly like the faded edges -- stick with the new one.

Plus, I don't think I could take staring at your face everyday...

Hey! What does Eric's face have that mine doesn't (apart from a boyish smile )?

I love the new avatar, though may I suggest editing in a flaming character sheet in one hand and a bloodly d20 in the other?

I actually thought about stuff like that, but the resolution is just too small to allow for such a thing in any detail ("why is your gnome burning a tax form?")

I give the new avatar two thumbs up from this side of the computer. Which makes it really hard to type.

I have read all of the above comments and I think the underlying feeling is anything but your face! I mean that is not what I think, I actually like the new avatar, but I think the others...

I like having myself as avatar, but in your case I'd have to say... go with the gnome....

(En als je voornaam David is, is dat mooi meegenomen.... )

Er... Well. Thankfully some people in rela life do find my face interesting enough....

I'll definitely stick witht the new avatar though.

And no, my first name isn't david, but I think D&D gnomes aren't real gnomes. Gnomes are 6 inches, 300 grams (250-275 for females) and wear big pointy red hats to deflect hail and raindrops. They are not Halflings with big noses and a nack for illusion and sprockets IMO.
