How does everyone love my beautiful airplane. About Mach 1.6. That`s what I call flying. Busted windows. Officers angry as hornets. Laughter. This is no bus driving. A P-3 pilot called me frustrated once. At least I wasn`t a bus driver.

The larger avatar is OK by me. If anything it has increased my IT knowledge by creating my new one. (The PA provided avater became too pixelated for me - being a detail type 'n all). Hope you like the new one. The only trouble is that I own the copyright and have to pay myself everytime it gets used. Wink 
 
Bigger avatars OK, what does annoy me though, are the large pictures used in signatures. All that unnecessary scrolling.

I think I have found something scarier than Gray-O: A painting by none other than Henry Lee Lucas. Evil Smile

I changed my avatar from nothing to what you see now. I have a higher quality of the image on my computer but I made it the size it is in order to comply with the PA requirements, not the forum. Now the forum stretched out the image so it looks quite blurry. Is there any way that I can keep the avatars from the main site separate from the forum?

Eh? You can upload a 120x120 avatar for the forum, and it'll get shrunk down for reviews and stuff. Also, I never understand why that flash was so popular on Newgrounds, other than the absurd amount of time he must have put into animating it.

Harry, if you ever get tired of irony, I was going to whip up a resize of the Doom marine for you because I'm sitting here for hours anyway so I might as well do something remotely useful.

I was pleased at the quality of mine when they did the resize.  It's a combination of a cartoon image I took from a make your own card program where I took an actual picture of myself and used the clone tool to do the hair and beard. 

I've decided to make it a yearly tradition to change into Bug-Eyed Earl for Halloween.

I forgot to mention yesterday I changed my avatar, but I did.
I'm the guy that used to have Doomguy as my avatar, but that picture got pixelated because it was 64x64 pixels, so I decided to get a new avatar until I can find a bigger Doomguy pic that I like.

While I am almost ready to concede such a hollow victory, I never saw what was so entertaining about it.
 
Not that I've even gone to Newgrounds lately.

Behold in despair, mere mortals, for I have found an avatar that is even freakier than that painting by Henry Lee Lucas: Burger Bill.

Now, I can hear you ask, what in Nyarlathotep's name is this "Burger Bill" abomination?

Well, he's an advertising mascot, but not for burgers. He's a figure from a series of vitamin advertisements designed to show the grisly results of a vitamin-deficient diet.

Just stumbled into this:

LOLLOLLOL

I think I changed the eye with Cyggie's "Quadrophenia" avy, one almost all of us thought (back then) it would be "eternal" - till Cyg changed it with Marillion ones, thus creating controversy.

Rejoice, for Burger Bill has left in favour of Hunter S. Thompson!  In case you're asking, my new sig is not a HST quote.
