View Full Version : You--drawrings or avatars, not photographs

this is the thread for people who really don't want to post a photo, but are happy with a drawring of themselves. Draw it yourself, or get an aviatar artist to do one for you--

here's mine:

and
http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m264/anna_pictures/Anna.jpg


no drawring can accuratly show age--my pictures make me look like I'm 12. (don't worry, I'm not--It's just hard to show my age)

Oh, this is me as a half orc. It was made by someone that owns an MMORPG to be an NPC face, however I don't think they've found a place for my face to fit in just yet.

Problem is if I wanted to use this for role playing purposes I'd end up playing some kind of half orc bard or something stupid. Typecasting.

'Tis me. Or at least, it's meant to look like me.

Maybe I will take this as my avatar, after a week.

EDIT: Changed it.

You know, it actually looks like me...

Meez was a meme? I had no clue...

But I felt I had to make one, since I have no drawing skills to speak of.

Wow, is that Meez thing so old? Because I've just discovered it. I'm having a blast! (ok, I'm merely amused by it but it's been entertaining for over 2 minutes :p)

Edit: When I read "aviatar" I keep thinking of avatars of ourselves as birds :p Quite fitting for the animal week thingy.

Just a thought: if a lot of people are going to do Meezes now, perhaps instead of embedding them, you should instead provide a link to the image, as I've just edited my post to do.

'cause it's slowing down my connection loading all of these large animated gifs up on one page. Don't know about other people, though.

Here's a drawing of me done by one of my friends. It actually resembles me quite a bit, apart from, you know, the lack of LIMBS and all.
It has eyes, I have eyes.
It has hair, I have hair...

IT'S LIKE LOOKING INTO A MIRROR!

I'm planning on drawing myself an avatar soon. This plan is being hindered by the fact I'm not good at drawing...

Wow, you're locked in stocks as you write this? Pretty cool :p
Also, I like what you're wearing, the striped stockings or whatever they are called are cute. ^^

Now that everybody has made one of these... :s it does feel a little pointless and it would be better to post photographs. Sorry, I'm losing interest in non-real life stuff. I'm off to the other thread to post an actual photograph of me.

Nono, I'm not saying they're not fun, but just that I rather see photos of people than drawings, at least if it's to know what they look like.
Now I want to check out your guitar! ^^

In case I don't find the thread, dunno, can you post the link or PM it to me?

I take no responsibility for the qualities of the pics here in because I didn't do them, so blame someone else. :smallwink:

Meh. We all had to deal with it. My original plan was to be skating in a hockey rink with a hockey stick and a Sens jersey. Then I found out the Sens jersey costed money and the hockey animation sucked.
