Time to get your avatar skills up and running.
This is a simple game, really - But for you who doesn't know yet, I'll explain:

The one who posts after me in this thread will have to rate the avatar I am using. Give it a score between 0 and 10. You can rate it in whichever way you want. It can get a full score due to uniqueness, or because it has some special meaning, or is just simply cool. Or you can give it penalty for it being boring, too general, or anything! Do whatever you want :) And of course, you're allowed to post more than once in the thread, but never rate your own avatar.

So how well would the next poster rate my avatar?

It's Link. From Ocarina of Time (arguably one of the best installments of Zelda in the whole series).

Do I need to say more?


Bonus point for anyone who knows where my Avatar is from (Be specific!).

Don't know why, but it reminds me too much of Spock from Star Trek.

Rating 6.5

"it reminds me too much of Spock from Star Trek" said the Rasta Man
:-)

Rating would be 7 if in colour. However it is not Elf-related, is it?

Well, I cannot really make head or tail of that one. A Pokemon in clothes?

the pic looks a bit noisy. Don't you have one in better quality?

Rating 7/10

Still noone likes my avatar of the elf king.

ITS KIRBY !
as me. haa. i wear my urban camo hoody alot, or have one of my band ones on, have a side fringe. lip pierced. and wear skate shoes alot and so on.

please tell me you know who kirby is! if not. google him. or try wikipedia ;] he's a nintendo character. never as big as the zelda series, about as big as samus from metroid. he's uber cool aha :)

i think the elf king's alright. kinda..old looking. but hey. old = wise with elves usually. wise elders and such. 7.5/10

It's kirby, ok.. but still looks like this Pokemon:

Name (D): Pummeluff
Name (USA): Jigglypuff
Name (JAP): Purin

5/10 is a fair result....

too much Nintendo here anyway ;-)

And I should stop this game!

Kirby!

7.6/10
He's Nintendo's cuddly cutie. Can't give a bad score to him. I dislike the outfit a bit though.

8 points

As said befor, Its link! Besides the posture is nice. What lowers the points is that the picture could be of alittle better quality.

It's green, maybe even a bit too green... But it's a good pic of a Wood Elf in a rather good pose. I'd give it 8/10.

I've gotten myself a new Avatar (made by Mel'Reyna). I like purple, and I like Link. This should suit my needs.

I like it, Nag. Slaaneshi Link? 8/10.

Just to add to Mjateznik's avatar, it looks like a Glade Guard seen through nightvision. He looks kind of surprised too. Cool image though, I love the gaunt style of depicting elves.

Since Tethlis didn't comment, here go I.

uruk-hai: 5/10
Your avatar might be a paintjob but... What is it? A more adult approach to pokemon? Well it certainly ain't a elf. And coming from someone named after some twisted orch breed chaotically merged out of the pure life of a elf...

Naghati: 9/10
I like this one even more. 4 points for Linkness and 4 for artistics but minus for purple. If you could, it would be great to center Links face alittle more. Oh wait, I will have to throw in one more point for it sure is better then the other one.

Uruk-Hai's avatar is Midna, from the twilight princess game.

I'd give the original pic a 6/10, but it needs some work to be an avatar.

Mjat; My avatar was made by Mel'Reyna, and I like it very much. I'd probably move the face a few more pixels to the left to get the second eye in, but it's supposed to be off centre. It's artistic :) Glad you like it though.

You're still rather cool. The Nightvision comment by Tethlis really fits the colours. I imagine a 40k soldier coming in, and seeing a Wood Elf in a forest :D

Well I can't center it more because that's what the picture you sent me is like, it cuts right after the eye (the whole eye is there actually, just barely). I didn't cut a single pixel off from that side of the image.

Anyways rate Nag's instead of mine for obvious reasons ^_^

When we're still on the subject of this avatar, could you make the border brownish/woodish? Would suit the new skin better :)
Also, I'd rate it 10.9/10 :D
