    I was wondering if we will see Tripod Avatars. They are so ugly I would change over to one for sure.

    Haven't thought of doing any of them. Hmmm...

    These could be made into avatars...

    Those are looking pretty nifty, Mr. OldGuy59, sir! Lovely work, indeed, Mike Still not sure I would change my avatar, but they do look pretty tasty...

    All the best,

    It would be a difficult choice to pick a Martian avatar. Great work as usual Mike.

    The artwork above is from Ares and Andrea, not anything I did.

    Taking them and doing a bit of Photoshop gets us these:

    I'm with you on that. There are, at least, three I would like to have, depending on the section of the Forum I'm posting in.

    Excellent work on those Tripod Avatars. So how do we get them added to our selectable list?

    When Obest Hajj and I get back to our respective offices, I'll see if he will add them to the selection lists.

    Gold members could save them to their computers, and upload them as custom avatars, like the one I have, for BSG (being that I was appointed the moderator for that section, and didn't want to show bias to either side).

    PS: I might have to do new backgrounds for the T&T section. Hmmm...
