Title: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 09, 2006, 10:08:58 am When bored, guess what you do? Check out the grd boards of course and I just got an idea I can steal from them! *cackles*
What about creating avatars like the ones Grd use, with Citizen, Highlander etc...Showing your station in the covian society...It will take some effort, but I think it can be done without taking too much time :P Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Olchafa Serpernt on February 09, 2006, 11:20:11 am What about mr white ninja! Where will he sleep at night?! Hes only trying to protect you from black magic beans!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Bayne on February 09, 2006, 02:17:38 pm Curse that white ninja. I will beat him one day...
I think it's a good idea to have it as a sort of title but maybe let each person decide on the avatar maybe? Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 09, 2006, 02:58:50 pm well, boviously, it's not a commandment :D May the avatar forbid that...It's just an idea, and all comments are very useful...I am currently making a Highlander one...So I will post it here for all to see and judge
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 10, 2006, 01:41:33 am Avatar? Vhat do you mean?
Like a Siggie? Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 10, 2006, 05:54:47 pm No no eason, like the small pic you can have in your profile when posting things...Look at my dog, that's the avatar
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 10, 2006, 06:14:44 pm Yeah, I know what ya mean now.
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 10, 2006, 06:50:30 pm Ohhh Mr. Eason, your so innocent !
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 10, 2006, 06:54:01 pm I can draft some up if you like. So they're intune with the website, and all *Grins*
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Octiovus on February 11, 2006, 02:35:21 pm Seems like a good idea, I may have a crack myself though I fear Eason will be better suited to the task. ;)
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 11, 2006, 02:59:35 pm This is to be noted, that this idea is stolen from the Grd boards! ;)
Out worst enemies have good ideas?! :o ;) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Khaelieth on February 11, 2006, 03:38:38 pm Our worst enemies are pandas
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 12, 2006, 04:02:43 am What did pandas ever do?!

Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Ben Radau on February 16, 2006, 07:54:34 am *sighs*
We are a guild of those I used to laugh about and call brainless heavy rp´er. Now I am part of it and always wondered, why at the boards RP´ing sometimes stoped. In MY opinion the signatures and avatars belong to the RP part, kind of continuing of the UO char. And I know, there are lots of fantastic avatars around to represent your char. Some boards offer it as an ordinary add-on. *waves* Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 16, 2006, 08:56:48 am I agree, even though my avatar has never been anything even remotly connected to my char... This is only an idea, but I still think it's an good one at that because:
1. It will be very easy to see who the person really is in the game. 2. It's almost like leaving a stamp with your insignia on every IC paper you "sign" Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 09:52:27 am May Jack Bauer bless you all :D
Could do a 50/50 arrangement AVATAR is roleplay, SIGGIE is optional. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Kazuo Shinrai on February 16, 2006, 09:52:35 am Well, my avatar is very much related to my chars!
Bob Marley - likes to smoke illegal substances, Kazuo likes to smuggle them (after which Kasei smokes them) Bob was very much against violence - Kazuo feels the same way, hence he has others do the dirty work for him Bob made pwn music - Kazuo has GM musicianship Bob pwns without question - pretty much the same as Kasei + Lightningstrike + Honour Bob was a honourable person - My chars are Japanese Bob is a legend! - Ok, not quite there yet Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 03:35:41 pm Does raise an interesting debate, really.
Should our Avatars and Signatures be monitored by the Roleplay Police? One can appreciate that a certain Bob Marley and Jack Bauer can set the atmosphere slightly off course (despite your exceptional comments, Kazuo :D) How's something like this? I know its small but thats the Avatar Limit. (http://sugeworld.com/boc/bocimages/avatar-regularguardsman.gif) Or... (http://sugeworld.com/boc/bocimages/avatar-regularguardsman1.gif) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 16, 2006, 04:03:26 pm Looks good, I prefer the topmost one...;)
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 04:04:48 pm Kidding!?
I prefer the second :D Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Ben Radau on February 16, 2006, 04:12:14 pm Just give this a try, no matter of the language....
Try to register and see the avatar list that the board offers... http://www.dragonbane.de/wdt/modules.php?name=Forums Maybe we can add something similar? The thing with the titles/ ranks makes some work if promoted... then we need a kind of page where all possible ranks are put to download the corresponding picture... Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 04:31:07 pm Couldn't register because it won't accept my hotmal address.
But I did have a look around at their avatars. They seem to use a lot of random artwork on there, including Dungeon Keeper images!? Dungeon Keeper. What a great game... "Your monsters are deserting!!" They have the advantage of larger avatars though. I'm not sure if we can expand the size of avatars on here. I'll have a browse through admin. But yeah, I'm quite happy to draft up a load of avatars/ranks with their links. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 04:33:18 pm Booya!
Increased Avatarsize to 150x150. *Edit* Maybe 100x100.. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 04:45:14 pm Behold!?
(http://sugeworld.com/boc/bocimages/avatar-regularguardsman.gif) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Shadwell on February 16, 2006, 04:58:27 pm We want more ACTION!
Oh and the Captain badge better be freaking AWESOME. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 05:00:47 pm How about that?
Dropped the cheesy UO graphics. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 16, 2006, 05:01:03 pm Wohoop! Looks damn nice!

Chop chop. ;) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 06:16:38 pm Aye.
Just getting the ones with artwork done first. Then what I'll do is I'll just edit the titles accordingly. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Kas Valentine on February 16, 2006, 06:26:12 pm Regulars have artwork already!? :o
You chaps have a VIP club don't you, I knew it ! Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Darath Mithar on February 16, 2006, 06:37:06 pm Nice work - you've changed the hues well
Highlander one is a bit unclear, has he got a shield? Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 16, 2006, 07:19:30 pm Wow, the scout one looks really cool
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 08:11:39 pm He does.
Its the bottom left orangey thingie. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Kas Valentine on February 16, 2006, 08:18:32 pm Yay I got a shiny picture, thanks mister Eason. 8)
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Nicholi Ravnthorn on February 16, 2006, 08:32:10 pm The Dragoon looks kick ass =D
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 08:46:36 pm So guys like them, and stuff?
If you don't just shout. I don't think these will be mandatory.. (unless you guys think that is kool..?) But I think as Ben raised earlier, it might be worth us cracking down on signatures and stuff.. Yer know... Just to give the Community "that little bit more" of a roleplay atmosphere. Thoughts? Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 16, 2006, 08:49:37 pm Agreed, even though that'd mean that I have to let go of the comment upon me by Dashell...:(
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Ben Radau on February 16, 2006, 08:54:47 pm *nods*
very fine work, explorer master ;c) that gives the board the real feeling ;c) the siggies can be chosen free - with some links to the char, but the avatars that way should be ordered... *nods firmly* Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Bayne on February 16, 2006, 09:09:07 pm Lets see if mine works.
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 16, 2006, 09:10:32 pm Yeah, RP related siggys ftw
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 16, 2006, 09:22:40 pm What about seniors and exploring officers and corprols and sergeants and captains and commanders and watchman and recruits and citizens eh!?
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 16, 2006, 09:28:45 pm All in time brother... all in time...
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 09:34:42 pm Took the words right out of my mouth :D
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 16, 2006, 09:40:08 pm I've gotta say..
You guys look pretty shexy with those avatars *wiggles eyebrows* Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 16, 2006, 09:56:59 pm Yeh... we be proper military now
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 16, 2006, 10:10:36 pm See one thing that I hate about fixed siggys and avatars is that I now have to look at the names to know who it is that i have to ignore. I mean what if i actually replied to someone i dont like?! :o
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Hrothgar on February 16, 2006, 10:32:20 pm Everyone likes everyone in BoC silly! *Jumps around, spreading joy*
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 16, 2006, 10:42:50 pm But other then that Its all good...
:P Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 16, 2006, 10:58:27 pm *Slaps Hrothgar*
Snap out of it! Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 17, 2006, 02:06:17 pm Captain?
(http://sugeworld.com/boc/bocimages/avatar-captain.gif) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 17, 2006, 02:09:07 pm I dont like it
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Darath Mithar on February 17, 2006, 03:01:50 pm Cape looks a bit shoddy, make the text bigger as well then it will be sorted
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 17, 2006, 03:06:35 pm looks good...
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 03:34:51 pm It's great!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Octiovus on February 17, 2006, 03:40:57 pm Quote Cape looks a bit shoddy, make the text bigger as well then it will be sorted I'm inclined to agree. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 17, 2006, 04:31:43 pm Alright, I'll try again.
I won't increase the text size because then that will deviate from the design template; but I'll find an artwork piece without so much cape. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 05:01:40 pm I like it like that
Why don't you let the only captain decide if its ok? ;) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 17, 2006, 05:03:40 pm Because we dont want to be ashamed of him now do we?
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 05:06:16 pm Do you have a char in BoC dell?
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 17, 2006, 05:07:54 pm lol, Jack Sinist fool
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 05:23:07 pm Oh!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 05:23:30 pm Hurry up with those boulders!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 17, 2006, 05:32:34 pm That's a good point, Tom.
Our one and only Captain should decide, but its not amazing - I can probably find a better piece of art and do a proper job. OR... I could just take the image for the normal guardsman and put "Captain" on it. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 05:38:46 pm No no! Don't do that!! Thats Just Lazy!!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 17, 2006, 05:48:04 pm Ahuh? ;)
*pushes Avatar work to the back of the line* I'll come back to it later. Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 05:54:12 pm NoOO!! Lazy! BAD!
On another note... Mmmm..... Chicken flavour super noodles... Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 06:24:24 pm Arg!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 06:29:36 pm WoOO!
Finaly Sorted out my Siggy! Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 17, 2006, 07:57:05 pm Not a babble thread. To avoid this thread being locked, please post only with relevance in mind.
New Captain Avatar. Thoughts? I change the almighty template design! *Cries* (http://sugeworld.com/boc/bocimages/avatar-captain1.gif) Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 08:16:22 pm I prefer the first
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Delcarakdur on February 17, 2006, 08:41:02 pm Top Notch! ;)
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Octiovus on February 17, 2006, 08:52:10 pm I like this one.
Perhaps use the other one for other officer ranks? Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: John Dell on February 17, 2006, 09:42:56 pm Yeah, I like the last one more.
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Samuel West on February 17, 2006, 10:36:35 pm Gah!
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 18, 2006, 01:20:42 am You humans annoy me.
Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Shadwell on February 18, 2006, 03:19:14 pm Hey I like this one the best.
And guess what! I'm Captain! Title: Re: Just an Idea... Post by: Gregor Eason on February 18, 2006, 04:27:35 pm Enjoy :D
