Good man. Good man.

ROB that avatar is excellent!!! I need to find one like that!

Andy

Me and my Cowboy Bebop fan over here can help you.

Are there any scenes in movies or whatever you would like made into an avatar.

Note:nothing to long, anything over 5secs is stretching it and anything over 10 is just impossible

Wow, cool, if I find something in particular I'll let ya know.

Thanks man!!!

yes.

It won't fit and it takes ages(for me at least) to resize and format the images for something that long.

[QUOTE]Ah, very cool! Jet Black is my second favorite Cowboy Bebop character, right after Spike. I can go make the avatar limits 80 x 80 if you'd like. I totally forgot about those. I'll do it now.[/QUOTE]Thanks Zach!

I was having trouble making my original 200 x 200 look ok in 50 x 50. It looks much better in 80 x 80.

Tyler

cool man, if I think of something I will let you know too.

by the way, i'm trying to figure out where I put the link for an avatar

any help will do.

How do I put an avatar under my name?
(sorry, I'm new to forums)

[QUOTE]How do I put an avatar under my name? [/QUOTE]

Using the menus at the top of each Cult page: hit "Community" then "Profile" to get to your user profile; then click the "Edit Options" link. At the bottom of that page, press the button that says "Change Avatar". This will take you to a page where you can change your option to display an avatar to "yes", type in a link to an avatar on some other site, or upload one from your computer. The size limitations for avatars are listed earlier in this thread.

It took me a little while to figure it out too. But with a lot of help (like 100% of the effort) from [B]R0BB23[/B], I now have my all-singing all-dancing avatar.

For anyothername and murderkitchen:

Make sure that you are logged in. Since you have just posted, you probably already are.

Then, go here:

[url]http://www.chuckpalahniuk.net/community/member.php?s=&action=editavatar[/url]

Follow the instructions. If you have problems, come back and ask. If you have excessive problems, then try a support group.

So when carrying a bomb on an airplane, always disguise it as a dildo.[/i]

Got it. Thanks guys. But how do i change pixel size to 80x80?

You can post it here and one of the makers can resize it for you.

Unless of course you want to learn.

just testing an avatar, don't mind me.

[QUOTE]Got it. Thanks guys. But how do i change pixel size to 80x80?[/QUOTE]First, it doesn't have to be 80 x 80. It can be up to 80 x 80. So, you can do 50 x 30, 75 x 60, etc.

Most image editors (I prefer Photoshop myself) will allow you to change the image size. Just remember to do it proportionately, otherwise, the graphic will look squashed.

And if this seems too difficult, then as Rob pointed out, just ask one of us to do it for you.

Tyler

I figured it out. Thanks for the help.

Testing my new Avatar...

I hope the movie is damn good because I don't like to advertise, but I'm excited for a new Tarantino show so I did this avatar ...

I'm psyched up about Kill Bill, too. I almost did a Kill Bill avatar.

Like I said I hope...

I think Uma Thurman is great, but I'm sketchy on the matrix/crouching tiger influences the trailer seems to peek at.

Then again its Tarantino and hes one of the best at telling a story, through writing of course but also visually without the ohhs and ahhs of visual effects, but in camera cinematography that has been so great in his previous films...

lol, and this is coming from someone who creates visual effects for a living,

I know I wont be dissapointed tho, its Tarantino!

Looking very forward to this one.

KILL BILL is going to rock. I have the utmost faith in Tarantino. Plus, don't forget guys: As big as you think Tarantino is into gangster films... he is much more influenced by Asian cinema. I've now read 3 biographies on the man and all he does is quote his endless inspirations for Shaw Brothers films, John Woo films, and anything with crazy wire work and samurai action.

So while KILL BILL may seem different to you then the standard Tarantino fare..... it's actually the most passionate and personal film he has thus far made. In short, it's going to rock.

And since Dennis works waaaaay too hard at this site and I imagine at this point his brain is totally fried (ha ha), I am not in the slightest bit surprised that he forgot to mention the most OBVIOUS of all the Tarrantino / Kill Bill influences.

If you haven't seen it yet, before KB comes out, go and rent Bruce Lee's "last film," Game of Death. Don't watch it; the movie was obviously released for money and is absolute crap (Bruce died before it was completed). Just fast-forward to the end, when Bruce (the REAL Bruce) is in the Pagoda, and has to fight his way up all the different levels.

You'll see the tracksuit that Uma Thurman is wearing (I think I read somewhere that they even had / used Bruce's original tracksuit in KB), as well as the whole Pagoda / fighting levels thing.

There's also... I can't remember the name of it at the moment, but there was a documentary on Bruce that came out a year or two ago that also had some recently discovered footage from Game of Death. That's worth watching, too. But only if you're hardcore. Like me .

This is my first post on the new site! Was it as good for you as it wasn't for me?

any help would be appretiated [/B][/QUOTE]

Emailed you about it.

PS>Zach can you raise the amount of characters allowed in pms, a 1000s kinda low. Im used to 10,000.

Hey Rob, could you make me on of the "dodge this" bit from the matrix? just the bit of the agent falling...

Sure, but you dont have to specificly ask me. Just ask for an avatar to be made and someone who can will

I might start a thread on how i make avatars.

and let others post how they prefer to do it.

Thankee muchly Rob.

Actually, why not anyone who's got some good avatars put em up! Let us all benifit from your genius (yes I am flattering people)

I have a small collection of avatars I have made. A few are pretty good: one from the opening sequence of Goldeneye, an Ed Norton punching himself, and Till Schwieger slowly coming into focus then flicking off the camera.

can anyone make me an avatar from donnie darko.
when he stabs frank in the eye in the bathroom?
just so the light pulses?

Could anyone get me an avatar from Reservoir Dogs. The part
where Mr. White (harvey keitel) is shooting up the cop car with
both guns blazing. Only that shot.

test.

Put them up! I like the idea of a Ed Norton beating the living shit out of himself on my screen... actually, just had an idea, one of the four "tyler flashes" at the start, before he sees him in the airport... someone wanna give it a try?

Ok, ill type something up tomorrow.

Hopefully TSB will throw in his prefered way of making avatars also.

Dont know if we have any other makers out there.

Okay, this is a total shot in the dark (and a sad excuse for me to post again!), but before I ask it, please take into account that I am the world's biggest computer retard and that I'm constantly on the very product that I would like a minotaur made for.

Can anyone make me a NYQUIL Minotaur? I'll send you a free bottle of NYQUIL if you do! (It'll be empty, of course).

Thanks alot dude.

[B]Thanks alot dude. [/B][/QUOTE]

No problem.

I've got a crap load of avatars I made before I came up with the one that was just right, selah. I was going to post a couple but the files are too large to attatch to a post.
Any suggestion?

Use a webhost and just link them.

Ummm if you have broadband, you most likely already have something you could host pictures with. Youll just have to find it

EDIT: Forget it, I found the avatar in the Vacation post. Thanks a lot Robb.
