Default Avatar 100x100px FRIH$100

 


mathiaus
I need an avatar to use on my forums for users who don't specify one.

Size: 100px X 100px
Colours: background transparent, green

Basicly I'd like the msn icon dude ( this dude) the front guy (the blue one) to be green (not as shiny as current) with a wizard hat and a wand (both green outlines only with higlights)

More info & quick contact: msn - matthew_foody@hotmail.com

$FRIH: 100? Slightly neagociable

EDIT: I'm fussy so be willing to change it sevral times Smile (extra $FRIH for putting up with me)

EDIT AGAIN: some more images if needed
hat: http://www.dpent.ca/Images/scwizardhat.jpg

That looks quite simple Wink - i'll give it a go...wait 10 min. for my post Razz

Im not sure i understand what you mean by this though:

Could you clarify ?
LukeakaDanish
Ok...so i've given it a go Razz

Its not really what you asked for...i know, however:

Transparent images look AWFUL because alpha-png's dont wirk in IE6...so i decided to give it a background - i hope you like it anyway.

Changes are as usual with me and my .xcf files, super fast.

Thats the sort of thing I mean Very Happy

Changes:
- smaller hat, larger body
- wand other side
- wand starting lower down (where the had would be)
- wand 'spark' same green as body
- hat coloured out

What I mean about the hat, is so that it is like the body, just the outline filled with colour (with fading like in the body if it's not too tricky).

The reason I asked for a transparent background was because I hadn't decided on a background colour
// I'll post back when I do

Ok...i need to do homework atm, but when i get time i will do the modifications (maybe later tonight, maybe tomorrow night)

perhaps you could decide on a bg colour before i redo it???

Im sorry, but i stil dont quite understand that... Confused

Do you want an outline on it?
Or an outline that is green, but the inside black

The fading isnt too difficult, though i may not be able to do it quite as smoothly, as the original "dude" is obviously a 3D render - which i dont have time to do for you (and which would look crap if i did it Wink)
mathiaus
3D Rendering Shocked sounds scary ...
Ok then just take the green from the middle of the 'dude' for the fill colour of the hat and then go around the outside of the hat with a darker green.
Example from paint;


Background colour ... I was thinking green, dark or dark pale green, hopefully you'll be able to quickly change them and see which is best (or maybe a different colour even?

Time wise I'm flexible for a week so take your time Smile

Ok...i understand the hat thing now Very Happy

I'm think a grey-black gradient might look good in the BG...i will send it tommorow and you can see what you think.

You still want the stars on the hat?

Also, what color is pae? (sry, but i'm not from england as you probably know, so my english isnt entirely perfect)

So am I! I meant Dark Pale Green Embarassed (typing too quickly)

No stars on the hat thanks, plain and simple.

I tried my best from using your instructions... I'm a little unsure of what "Dark pale green" is though. Anywho I dont mean to be a jerk and jump into this conversation late... but this seemed like a neat idea.
mathiaus
Getting closer, maybe make the hat smaller though so it fits on and the body slightly to the left to make a bit of space for the wand.

I'm not really sure what I meant about by 'Dark pale green' either Embarassed but I feel that one is too light for it.

Thanks Ghost_Rider but not really what I'm looking for, saskshadowplayer's was closer.
This is still open!
LukeakaDanish
Haha...this is REALLY a long time ago (I'd completely forgotten), but here's an update to my img:

Better than I initially imagined thanks. Very Happy
