Avatars

Hey,

May be a stupid question, but I can't get an avatar. There aren't any listed when I look where it's designated, and I'm not technically advanced enough to find anything on my own. Thus, any help in laymen's terms would be greatly appreciated.

Many preconcieved thanks,
`Icarus`

Re: Avatars

Try this way. Find an image you like, post it on this thread and ask some good floyd friend to resize it for you!

Re: Avatars

We plan on having some default avatars so people can choose from them, but there are a lot of things on our "to do" list that this is kinda backlogged...

Re: Avatars

Yes, there were, as a matter of fact. However, I have tried to reach Patrick (Charade I Am) several times with no success. He is probably busy with his own life. In the meantime, I removed his status as a moderator to avoid problems. Whenever he comes back, he'll be more than welcome to be a moderator again, if he wishes so.

Pat, we all miss ya!

Re: Avatars

Wing'd Icarus,

Taking thorin's advice of posting a potential avatar pic and having a friendly Floydian here reduce it to size for you is a bonza idea.

Or, you can use this one below I resized earlier when I was deciding upon my current avatar, then abandon it when/if you find a more suitable image. It's not very exciting but it DOES have a PF provenance.

CIA: come back, mate all is forgiven. We don't rate all these newbie moderators. We want our veteran back!

Re: Avatars

Anytime, Wing'd Icarus.

The image is the rower, perhaps Pink himself, who can be seen in one of the central pictures of the Echoes: Best Of... album cover art.

Official Pink Floyd Site - Hollywood & Vine

I suspect this image, or character was used on one of the post-Waters Floyd albums.

Re: Avatars

The "rower" comes from the artwork of A Momentary Lapse Of Reason, you can find it in the CD booklet and on the video for Signs Of Life.

Re: Avatars

hey, this is straying off subject..but on the Echoes cover (for what I guess would be..disc 1) where the red veil from I suppose WYWH is falling like...is there an arm there holding it up, extended from below frame, or is that just a shadow from the window sill?
