There are two words for that which every artist knows and will use at leisure:

((((Artistic license)))))

Do you remember my old avvy that was an edited photo of a bearded guy at a computer, his legs and those of the desk and chair all turning into tree trunks, with the caption "Moot More"? I thought of that instantly when I read Rian's idea. I think it would be perfect, but I lost it though, and the only trace of it is now in ye olde avatar shoppe that is no longer out on display, but away in bmilders' computer's innards. (Somebody fiddled with it in the thread, though of course. Maybe someone still has it? Nurv?) Anyway, that, or the "Ents have no butts" idea.

And nobody knows exactly what's in an entish draught, but it looks and tastes like water, but has a hint of some other essence that would usually appeal to smell, and so its barely recognisable as a taste but the mind knows it pleasing and it's super-nourishing for the body. It comes in bowls.

I like that idea, too, Bombadillo! Funny!

We-ell, one more vote for Bombadillo's old avatar and I won't have to be drawing Ents in the holidays anymore.

I wish I could see Bombadillo's old avatar. The only one of his I've seen is his Pinky and the Brain mouse.

I've found it! Accidently, in some folder within a folder within a folder in My Documents.

Here's the actual avatar.


Unfortunately, I don't have the original picture I made that from, so it's very tiny. But for some reason I hid the words using basic Microsoft Paint techniques.


Now that I can actually see them, they would definately be too small for a shirt, and if elarged, too grainy. If other people like the idea, we could probably re-create it with a brand new photo and someone with great computer graphics skills. Ben could be the model!

Yeah I like that! But make the guy sort of "tree-ish", like an Ent, and keep the motto "Moot More." What thinkest thou?

We could have the words 'Moot More' underneath, and perhaps the users name on the back!

I love it. Leave it just like that, only bigger (du ). The pic must be on the back, without a user name IMO. But then I don't care, I won't make a t-shirt. All I have to do is find a place where someone can print that on a mug I love coffee

Do you know where the original pic came from? As in online or a hard copy you scanned in?

I found it online, on an obscure webpage while Googling from something completely not related to Ents. I was lucky to have found it, I remember, but now I'd never find it again.

This thread is awesome!

You guys really like Bombadillo's old avvie that much? I made it for him. But he, as he said, found the picture. I might have the larger version of the picture on my other computer, when I get it set up.

However, it seems a bit unfair to use someone else's picture for our T-shirts. What if we used Darth Tater's Treebeard for the Moot shirts? Personally, I think the Entmoot logo on a green shirt would look awesome. Maybe with orange borders on the sleeves and neck. (Maybe that's asking too much. )

Wow, I have got to get one made up! If no one else is going to make them, I'll make one for myself. Heck, I'll clear out my entire wardrobe and repalce it with Entmoot shirts. I am already waiting to buy HVEL pencils, an HVEL coffee mug, a ZAQ1 shirt, and a Brendan's Classical Music website hat.
