Who has the best ones? Personally I think Bruce's one is quite interesting, although I've never seen this guy at all.

Is this to draw attention to your new one? :p
The Red Guy
October 25th, 2002, 09:36
Nope, I saw a similar thread on invision board forums. I do like to duplicate interesting ones.

Let's see...Akalon's down there in Australia and Bruce is in the United States. So I'd say he's pretty famous worldwide. ;)

When my brightness is turned down, I could still see Kaliber's avatar very clearly but not The Red Guy's.
The Red Guy
October 28th, 2002, 06:40
After setting the brightness to 0, it does seem like a black blob, but isn't it because it is coloured and not white?
Ben
October 28th, 2002, 07:32
I can see L'Homme Rouge's avatar even after I turn my brightness all the way down. But I can still see it if I turn the contrast down (unless I turn it to 0, of course then the screen is black).

It's AWP not arctic ;). Ay Dubya Pea.

I'm not sure, it's been a while since I went to their game models but I think I have them downloaded, gimme a minute and I'll look for one holding one of those....

[add]
I found one with a scout in the downloadable ZIP file (you have to be a CS nation member to download.....tis free registration) that is holding a scout, but the background is bright red (You could always do an Image>Extract in photoshop....then you have to do all kinds of stuff to the image to get the CT out)

The NLC thing was updated recently so that long time members who don't post that much won't be stuck in NLC.

This means that when you have been a member for 180 days and have posted more than 1001 posts you will have your custom title. If you have posted like crazy and reach 1001 posts but haven't been a member for 180 days you'll get stuck in the NLC until you've been a member that long.

7 pages and no mention of ANY of my avatars?

SHAME!

First off, I had the original great avatar featuring Hitler, Jesus, Ronald Reagan and Bad Religion. Also, my Duck avatar was the best one out of all of those.

And as DANK as my current avatar is, it pales in comparison to the greatest avatar of all time, which was lucifer's GC avatar.
