Avatars by Sialia

[Sialia]

I would like an avatar. I just have no idea what to choose. . .. I am very proud of what I did and my unit (the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, CRAZY HORSE!!!!).

I don't usually like trying to do portraits--too much is lost at 64x64. I have much better luck with something symbolic. Think about a concept that you think represents you--if you had to pick one noun to be your face, what would you choose? Or adjective . . sometimes I can do adjectives.

Aries-Omega suggests a very simple but powerful graphic to me:

That's awesome! I'm using it now. If you feel like still playing around (not that you should, this one is great), here's some other sprites.

Very nice work, Sialia. If you have the time, I'm looking for an avatar similar to my current one, only with a cooler, bolder, and more stylized look. While still being fairly simple. If that makes any sense. The concept would be a Paladin's shield to go along with my Crusader X nick - so I'm thinking a holy shield that incorporates both a cross, as well as an "X" symbol somehow.

First attempt looks like something that belongs on top of the General Lee.

Starting over.

Don't forget to put a liner note in your sig saying "Avatar by Sialia".

Done and done.

Sialia,
As always, you ROCK!

A Stormhammer symbol for this old, gnarled dwarf?

How's this?

Is it possible to get 2 avatars: one with a d20 with the 20 being center and one of 3 six sided dice?

Um. Usually, I'll try anything that's not a portrait. But I'm just not feeling inspired by this. I'm not sure how to make this any more artistically interesting than just throwing some actual dice on the scanner and calling it a night.

Can you think of any way to make this a more interesting project? Is there something special about the dice for you--something that is special to you specifically and not to everyone who posts on these boards.

I mean, I'm especially fond of the gren d20 I luck-rubbed on Piratecat last spring, but to anyone else, it just looks like a d20.

When I heard the description for the Strom hammer, I though a cloud over the head and a single bolt arking down the hanle or having the cloud on the head.

If I play a Dwarven Paladin who drinks alot of moonshine and shouts "YEEEE-HAWW", that could work!
