Our next Avatar theme week is ON FIRE!!!!! Have your normal avatar set on fire, preferably running around flailing in panic. :smallbiggrin:

We agreed in the last thread that the theme weeks would be every 6 weeks, but we have Christmas on Dec 25, and the annual genderbender week the week of Valentine's Day in February. So, we can either have this week occur early in December, or early in January.

Any preferences?

The masses have decided. ON FIRE!!!! week will be January 4-10.

I'm gonna request one (shock horror!) of my Normal Nerdy Halforc who I think I named Jim (lightsabre optional!) on fire. The reason being I suck at drawing fire.

Sorry for never starting this HT! *slaps his ADD*.

Anyway, I'm looking for an avatarist! Info to come.
So, for the upcoming ON FIREEEEEEE!!! week, I'm looking for someone to do a high quality OOTS version of my current avatar (done by the fantastic Dragonrider) + The infernal from Warcraft 3.

Infernalhttp://www.warcraft3.sk/pics/races/undead/units/infernal.jpg

I was thinking the human could be replaced by the infernal? And the Green-ish flames could be radiating past his helmet, and other pads? And possible the ground beneath him on fire too. PM me for more information, if need.

Thanks in advance :smallamused:.


January works fine; in fact the day after it ends is my birthday :smallamused:.

Blue Ghost
2009-11-11, 11:25 PM
Here is my request, any takers?

I would like my avatar to be a picture of Blue Ghost standing on fire, with a :smalleek: expression, and Red Spectre leaning into the panel, grinning at the audience, while casting a hellfire blast at Blue Ghost.
Here is Red Spectre (by Tiffanie Lirle) for reference:

Reccaiden, I'll get on and finish the red flame echidna before then.

Mud, i'd be happy to take your request, that kind of thing is my strong suit.

Mr. Mud
2009-11-12, 10:29 AM
Sweet, thanks Random. To clarify it, just in case: I was thinking my current Avvie as an infernal, still in the pads, and his ghastly aura still radiating out of his pads and everything. Maybe the background still the same, but more ominous? Like the grass is gray and dead and the background is more night time?

DeeRee gave permission to edit the pic any way you want :smallbiggrin:.

Oooooh, this is interesting. I wonder if my avatar could look somewhat cooked when it's on fire?

Wow. Fire week during Wrath's birthday too. Obviously he'll need 2 avatars that look near him. One is the before with the b-day cake, the other is the after...when wrath is on fire... :smallamused:. I might actually get a chance to participate on this one.

My avatar is already a fallen angel. Now i need someone to give him the blazing wings and turn his eye glow to yellow.

Maybe pose him like the classical fall-from-grace image.

I might do this, probably since you're one of the people who seem to catch the spirit of this. :smalltongue:

Any kind avatarists wanna do this?

I seem to have grown attached to my home made DJ avatar. As such, and also to have a bit of fun (I figured out how to make making these easier for me!), I set him on fire.

It occurs to me that it's going to be a little disappointing when ON FIRE!! week starts, and I'm still using the same avatar.

I am curious. Is my avatar already on fire? I mean, there's a fire background, a fire sword... Just no fire on the body itself...
But even though the body might not be on fire, the *avatar* is (see above), so I might be fine according to weird and loose definitions. :smallbiggrin:

Magtok, that's hilariously awesome (or is it awesomely hilarious?) Who made the avvie? But if he's running, wouldn't the flames be angling away from his body?

We are not allowed to do so, as it's The Giant's artwork.

One uses an art program, often Inkscape. Or MS Paint or The GIMP. And there's something about Irfanview.
Draw a circle, lines for the body, color, etc. Upload it to an image site. Set it as your avatar. There are manuals floating around A&C for the various programs.

I was filling in the options you weren't giving. Sure, she wanted to make it herself, but what if someone else had come along wondering the same question, and happened to be in the group I'm going to unfortunately refer to as "un-artistic folk" who either can't Art themselves or dislike their homemade Art? What then, fancypants? Then they have to go to the avatarists!

Real life has green, blue, purple, and all sorts of other colors for its fire

Magtok, that's hilariously awesome (or is it awesomely hilarious?) Who made the avvie? But if he's running, wouldn't the flames be angling away from his body?

Mad Mask made it, and unfortunately, magical cyborg-hunting fire doesn't work that way (Shush, that's the best excuse I can come up with). S'what I get for embracing technology and evil on a forum full of goody-goody witches and wizards and stuff. Also why I keep to the safety of this box now and then.

Okay, since no one was kind enough to set me on fire, allow me.

Hm. I kind of forgot about this week, but the guy from my avatar surrounded by fire, holding two Molotov cocktails and laughing maniacally as well as wearing some black protective clothing would be sweet if any avatarist would kindly spare some time.

Unfortunately the computer I'm on doesn't have inkscape so I had to do this in Paint.net :smallfrown:

Paint.net is great for some things but I prefer Inkscape for OotS Style.

Fire, Setting Everything In Sight On Fire Discovered


In what was perhaps the most meaningful discovery ever made, early man exited the safety and shelter of his prehistoric cave, struck two stones together, and for the first time in history created fire.

Moments later, man created fire for the second time and, after all the screaming and excited yelling had died down, the third, fourth, and fifth time.

"Fire, and its ability to light any object not currently on fire instantly on fire, completely changed human existence," noted archaeologist and historian Phillip Krensen said. "Not only could man now defend himself from dangerous predators, but he could also cook their meat, then get up from the bonfire, smile briefly to himself, and spend the rest of the evening seeing what else there was around to burn down."

Full story here (http://www.theonion.com/content/news/fire_setting_everything_in_sight)!

Arg. I've been working on it for the better part of the night, but it looks more like 'pissed off, and therefore on fire' rather than 'pissed because I am on fire (seriously guys, that was my favorite coat).'

Also, the pissed off face disappears at avatar size. :smallfrown:
