Gunnerkrigg Court Forum Avatars!

[descoladavirus]

I'm making this thread to share avatars for new and old users alike, feel like you need a new one, or just need one in general? Have a look here. All avatars are made from gunnerkrigg strips, with as few alterations as possible. All credit for how awesome they are should be given to Tom, I just cropped, and resized them for the most part. Feel free to share your own of course! Thanks again Tom for letting me share these!

Note: You should save these then upload them at your own image storage. I cannot promise that they will remain on my photobucket or that it will remain active.

Man, I was totally thinking of making a thread for this!

Here's a few, I'll edit more in later.

Also, if anyone ever wants an avatar of a certain panel or what have you, but there's word bubbles or something else you'd like removed, feel free to ask me.

Maybe someone who knows the forum software could investigate whether an approved set of avatars could be added to the Profile Editor by Tom himself, or whoever else has access, which would be rather more efficient. I took a look at the default list and they're awesomely blergh. I know on the Dresden Files forum, the forum itself offers avatars which are actually relevant to the subject, and I think that uses the same software.

Nice idea
Some Parley/Smittey themed ones

[descoladavirus]

I didn't think of making avatars based on certain themes/plotlines. Hm... More in a new post.

I'm assuming Tom will read this thread eventually and I have to say, Spiders scare the living hell out of me. The spider I made an avatar of though made me say "Huh. That's a beautiful spider."

Didn't there used to be a thread for this?

[Max]

There have been a couple, I think, though I could only find one. I know Yin made a ton of then sorted by chapter.

Anywho, here are a few I made a while ago:

Haha brilliant! I'd be happy to fire up the ole MS Paint and make a series of avatars like mine, though it isn't much in the spirit of the thread I suppose. ("... made from gunnerkrigg strips, with as few alterations as possible...") Plus I'm not sure Tom would entirely appreciate me defacing any more of his characters with BLUH BLUH faces. That's just how I show my love, Tom!

[descoladavirus]

Well, that just describes mine, if you want yours to be hand drawn...I won't say a word against it

So mean!

Somebody mentioned it on formspring and I'd also love a Shadow2-hoodie like this!

Me too, I would certainly buy one!

Is it me or some of the avatars in this thread are distorted?

I'm surprised this one hasn't been made yet:

Here they are

If you are looking for good avatars you can also look on the Gunnerkrigg Wiki too, they have all kinds of pictures.

They are. It is hard to make a avatar that's 100 X 100 pixels and keep the aspects of it the same. sometimes they get a little stretched, sometimes they get a little compressed. All in all they're the best we can do sometimes.

It has, but since I didn't make it I didn't want to put it in this thread and seem like I'm stepping on anyone's toes.
