Avatars?

[EireBadBoy]

Hi,
I was just wondering about Avatars. I see from other posts that you were looking for the crests so I'm guessing thats what they were for (?). It's not really a big deal but it's nice as a guide to who supports who....sometimes it's hard to tell.
Cheers,
Darren. (EireBadBoy)

If you decide to reactivate the avatars I thought you might be interested in this site. You might have to shrink them before use but they're quite good

[dahamsta]

Very cool. I've sent the chap an email to ask if we can use them here.

adam

[dahamsta]

He's agreed to let me use them, so I'll add them soon as I get a chance.

Thanks,
adam

In the meantime, Mikhail says...

Anyone willing to help him out? Mikhail's email address is mikesip@aha.ru.

Also thanks to Ciaran for the UCD crest, and whoever gave me the Galway crest ages ago -- they've been added now.

It's a bit cwap slk, no offense like. Any chance you could get a high-quality scan of it? Or could you get your hands on some headed notepaper and send it to me?

adam

[sadloserkid]

No offence taken at all... I agree as it happens! It's the only existing copy I know of though... leave the headed paper with me but it could be a few weeks before I can get anything for ya...

[patsh]

Very nice, Adam. The crests really add a classy touch.
However, given the speed of your average dialup connection, will it slow up page loading by much ?

[dahamsta]

You can turn avatars and sigs off in the user control panel oddboy. See the "thread view options" here (http://foot.ie/member.php?action=editoptions).

adam did'ya get the one 1 sent ya

[dahamsta]

I chose to ignore it James. I'm busy being selfish at the moment. :)

adam

[dahamsta]

Could everyone stop sending me personal images and avatars now please? You're not getting them. Make do with what you've got for the moment.

adam

[dahamsta]

I had to reset the avatars in order to upload new ones, including strips. You'll need to choose one again if you'd set one yesterday.

The Limerick jersey has just been added to the colours-of-football.com website. Good old Mikhail! If I send it on to you any chance you'd add it to the list of available avatars? Pwetty please!!!!! ;)

Go to 'My foot.ie home', select 'edit options' and then 'change avatar' is down near the bottom.

[Neil]

Nice wan!

[dahamsta]

So anyway, am I the only one that thinks the avatars are distracting and ugly, and I was right all along?

adam

[Schumi]

Yes. :)

maybe, they are quite big here. On the IS board (http://indsaints.proboards9.com) the max size is 65 x 80. Don't know what it is here but they look bigger (might be an illusion caused by the opaque colours)

[Neil]

They're a bit on the big side alright!

Only until buckin' Tuesday when I hit the big 22... :(

[dahamsta]

They're 75x75 pixels. Any smaller and they just look awful. Well, worse.

adam

[Dodge]

75x75 ? not too different, just looks it. As long as you don't allow images in signatures I think you're ok

[sadloserkid]

Ignore Dodge Vetinari, he's just jealous coz you nicked his favourite manager! You've done well!!! :D

[Dodge]

What?! :)

I'm all for avatars...

[Badweather Fan]

Avatars forever!!!!:)
