    Barnesy - what did I do wrong?

    Doug (and others), if you ask real nice, I might be able to mod others, but I'm not going to do many- takes too much (work) time!

    That's brilliant
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Just temporarily turned animation back on: I see Gumby's in Gumby Nirvana.

    Geez: I though I spent too much time on this board.
    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

    Woohoo! - Honoured indeed if we managed to entice the great Zen master to reanimate (even temporarily!)




    fyi - I didn't make the animation small enough to be an avatar, simply because I wanted to create a reasonable result, and the 19k limit would have shot the quality all to hell. As it was, I had to compromise quite a bit to fit under the 200k overall attachment limit!

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't tankstand have doug's avatar first before he became a "nice boy, really"?
    I remember being mesmerised by it and SWMBO banned me from these forums for a long time as a result. I still hear a ringing in my ears and a bouncing in my eyes.Let's give credit where it's due.
    Cheers

    Re Tankstand, yes, he did use it on this site previously, but he would concur that he wasn't the originator of the image.

    Quite correct Stuart.

    I pinched it from cyber space and after an all too brief love affair with it, I removed it, why?

    Just to appease a few members, much was the suffering, withdrawal and remorse! (That was just me! )

    And then came Doug!

    All hail Doug!

    All hail Doug!

    Doug, received any RED rep points because of it?

    Waldo: if you look at the rules carefully, they're banned.

    G'day Stuart Lees,

    Took a wild punt they'd be the same spec limits of a straight avitar. Thanks for the compliment.
