Sigs + Avatar Requests II

Right, new thread. I am expecting ONLY requests and responses in here, along with some comments and such.

I would also like to make a list of people willing to make avatars and sigs, so if you would like yourself added to it, send us a PM and state whether it's avatars sigs or both.

I will be deleting posts and infracting heavily in this thread. You have been warned


Please use this template, as provided by mitsur
:

Type of Picture:
Obvious, really. What do you want? A general picture, or an avatar, or a banner? This will keep me frommaking you guys an avatar when you want a banner.

Main Text:
What main title do you want on the banner? This is usually your username, but it could be something else.

Subtext (Optional):
What do you want under the title? This is usually a phrase, or witty quote.

Font:
What font do you want the main text and subtext in? Both can be different fonts. Include the color if you want. Also, please give me a link to where I can download the font if you don't think i'll have it.

Picture:
What picture do you want to be with the banner? You can tell me a combination of pictures, also. It would really, really help your banner's make-speed if you included a link to the pictures.

Theme:
Do you want an underlining theme to the banner? Like tech, organic, or biohazard? Theme mostly means the overall feel of a picture. Like, if you say, grunge, that pretty much means for it to be overall dirty.

Notes:
Here's where you post anything that can't be put into any of the other parts. Maybe you want a picture to be slightly blurred, or maybe you want a border. Anything you think should be included goes here.

And also, please post if the picture is going to be a signature, avatar, or just plain picture.

Here you go, Hobo. It's the template from the first one I made.

Type of Picture:
Obvious, really. What do you want? A general picture, or an avatar, or a banner? This will keep me frommaking you guys an avatar when you want a banner.

Main Text:
What main title do you want on the banner? This is usually your username, but it could be something else.

Notes:

And also, please post if the picture is going to be a signature, avatar, or just plain picture.

Now, if you guys think 'You don't need to force us to use this template, you nazi'. you're wrong. I have seen picture threads like this (one of my own, as well) degrade into idiots just saying 'Make me a Vincent Valentine sig plz ty' for pages on end, totally paralyzing the system.

Well, that's pretty much all of it. Oh, and anyone who wants to help me out, just email, or pm, or im me. Any help would be appreciated!

And for anyone who doesn't know how to upload their signatures, here you go.

I'm glad to see that I have been mentioned before I even knew of this thread


I believe Abe Is Now! PM'ed me about an edit:
And Alienmagi, as I said in the previous thread the signature I made you will not work with any other Alien but a xenomorph since the whole thing is around 'Alien'. Anyone who knows of the 'Alien' movies is free to tell him what I'm on about:
As well as the reasons above, I refuse to put your avatar in it because that will result in you asking me to change it every time you get a new avatar... which would be OK if you didn't change it continuously like you do.
fuzzle army's watching you Alienmagi



Back on a bright note! Hello everyone! Feel free to comment on my work because I like the advise and Hobo said he wouldn't infract you if you did!

Actually, the first time I saw AlienMagi’s current avatar, I was strongly reminded of the Alien theatrical poster, and although it’s the Aliens theatrical poster that has that distinctive typeface. I’m saying that to my eyes it would still be an appropriate sigpic.

I'm sure that wasn't what I was looking for but sure.
If I get another one... maybe two posts suggesting that I should do it anyway I guess I will have to put Alienmagi's avatar in that sig.

And your welcome Abe Is Now!.

I just want to say to all those who are/will requesting sig pics. The people who make sig pics are using their time, they are making something for you, asking nothing in return. It is not your right to demand that they make one, nor can you expect them to constantly remake them according to your specifications, maybe you should have been more specific the first time. You shouldn't someone to do something that you would not do yourself (if you had the skills).

Beggars can't be choosers. Take that into consideration when you ask for something.

Yes I am! So odd damn give me more stuff to do I'm so bored, meheh.
Sorry Salamander but if I did have anything better to do then I wouldn't be answering requests. So as far as I'm concerned, as long as I am not bogged down or seriously angry and it isn't past 5:00pm (that's when my internet dies), I don't care if I'm asked to edit something.
^the above discludes anything to do with editing it every f****ng minute.^

Yes Alienmagi, I did notice that I'd just hope that no-one else would. I will fix it as best I can this afternoon.

This is true. I know Carnix doesn't mind, but keep in mind you little mindless cretins who change your sigs every week

Ok, I would like an avatar for my MSN account with the completion of my OWF avatar (I post it) with the half of this pic (I post it too). And the back of the complete pic would be white. Can anyone do it? Thank you very much.

Yea. I'm requesting a signature, all of the ones I make just come out crappy and/or disgusting.

Type of Picture:
Signature

Main Text:
Alf

Subtext (Optional):
CANDAH!

Font:
Something fancy.

Picture:
The same two pictures in my signature right now. I'll provide them for you though:
http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/2801/alfaviuq2.gif
http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/2...3guiltymy1.gif

Theme:
Stones? Like a stone background? With a red tint (if the tint is too difficult, just a stone background).

Notes:
Surprise me where the locations of the images are.

Aha! Walah!

Thank you, Mitsur, but I meant a completion of the Abe's head with the a half of the green pic. Half head and half pic: united, attacked, paste... excuse me if I can't explain me well.

Oh yea! The graphic-illiterate man has returned for another request! I know you're all happy to see me again.

Type of Picture:
Avatar

Main Text:
None

Subtext (Optional):
None

Font:
There needs to be words for a font!

Picture:
http://mv.cgcommunity.com/images/archer.jpg

Theme:
You have two options (yes-more freedom! and be sure to read notes first, actually) my dear graphic artist:
1. Cut out the archer himself with background, and have a thunder strike behind him.
2. If cutting him out is too hard, simply follow the notes and have a cool Bevel effect on him, with a cool glow.

Notes:
Cut out the upper part of the archer, and make the avatar like that.

Try the best you can, I know my descriptions are always vague when it comes to avatars and signatures.

Now I wouldn't have thought of that, very... irregular.... different... unexpected.
But surely AbeIsNow! means that he wants the symbol to complete the left part of the head (correct me if I'm wrong). However, if that is what he wants then the top is going to have to be recreated. Providing my assumptions are correct I suggest that an image of abe's entire head is used but cut in half. I'd do it myself but I'm not going to because I'm busy working out how to make AlfShallRise exactly what he wants.
