Erm, I really don't know who to ask...so this is for anyone who has the time and would like to take the time to make an avatar for me.
If you would like to do it, I'd very much enjoy a picture of Snowmane(preferrbly not a picture of him crushing Theoden) with the words "Master's Bane" at the bottom. Or just "Snowmane" if the other is too long. Thank you in advance.

An Avatar for Lief Erikson!
We need to come up with an avvy for Lief, a longtime Moot member and good friend
I led the charge to get SGH to get an avvy, and she got her cute kitty one, and now I'm feeling my oats again and want to lead the charge for Lief to get one! It's just so much easier to find a person's posts when they have an avvy (yes, I'm lazy! ) Anyway, any suggestions? (please keep them nice!) Maybe a nice picture of a leaf (leaves are very cool with the sun shining through them) or a picture of his namesake?

Nice colors - I love the sky! and here's one of those interesting x-ray pictures:

How about the Dawn Treader; ship, if not Viking, plus it's Narnian.

I'm afraid I couldn't do the Dawn Treader. In all our games, my younger brother calls his nation the Dawn Treader. He'd tease me to no end about how I'm imitating him because of his grandeur .
Thanks for the thread. I'll think about the ideas .

You're going to get an avvy then Lief? Awesome! I always thought you were needful of an avatar. Time to stop being a rebel.
I made this avatar from the background of this website. What do you think? I had it shrunk down but there was an accident converting it to jpeg format. If you like it I'll try again though. The avatar would be the ship by itself, surrounded by the dark red, and 60x60 pixels.

He could use the face of that guy on Atharon, the one with the big sword and the red tunic...that would be cool.

Sorry, not yet. There are a bunch of nice pictures, but I'll need to think about it more.
