Though I submitted only the basic version of my avatar, I'd like to take this opportunity to demonstrate some of its other incarnations as a show of how awesome an avatar it really is. Its simplicity belies its amazing talent:

I appologize for anyone who didn't get into the gallery. I just didn't have time to go back through the thread. I did (as far as I know) get every avatar entered that I got an e-mail for, and kept up to date with the thread after about page 5. I'll add people who mention I forgot them. Again, my appologies.

 

Fuzzy, do you have a gif that doesn't have the text? I could add that to the gallery. icon_wink.gif

I also voted for it. It has a Picasso-esque simplicity and honesty. If I'd seen the new versions, I might have voted differently. I must admit the 'Jeremy pose' is funny. Be careful tho, Dino could suffer the same fate as Alfred E. Neumann. frog.gif

Does this mean that those 2 who voted for you are allowed to submit one more vote without being disqualified? I'm referring to your rule #4 where you say voters are allowed to send you only one email during the voting period.

 

Psst... I also voted for Dinoprophet. I love his avatar and its variations.icon_biggrin.gif

 

- I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory. -

Just as a reminder if you don't vote...you can't win There are currently a tight race between about 30 avatars and several of those haven't even voted yet. With less than 50 percent of the vote in, none of the top 5 have voted. icon_confused.gif

 

It would be a shame to be the majority winner of votes just to be disqualified!!

I woudn't sweat it...I've seen the leader board change several times already. Like I said there is a tight race between 30 avatars.

 

Look on the bright side...if the contest were to end right now...you could be the proud owner of a Geo Hiking Staff icon_wink.gif

Hm, I just noticed a potential snag when I got your reply. When I send email through the site, it gets my username attached to it, and not the name I display in the forums. You just got a vote from parkrrrr; it was from me.

 

Others might want to make the same clarification, since it might be rather hard to make the connection otherwise.

Your right. When I got your vote I checked the list and saw it wasn't on there and disregarded your vote. They are recorded now however.

Nice idea, but what list is this based on? My avatar was on Diablo's original "suggested" list, but it's not on your page!

 

(sigh) See what happens when I leave you children alone a few days? LOL

If you hit refresh, you'll see that the order is random. Gotta love MySQL's ORDER BY rand().

I asked people to e-mail me to get their avatars added, then, after about page 6, I was keeping up with the requests on the pages. Sorry I missed yours. It's in there now, for what it's worth. icon_biggrin.gif

The contest is based on avatars that are on this thread. There are 70= not in Markys gallery. Once again I encourage everyone to search the thread before voting!

Well I've voted, so I hope I'm in the top 30 icon_smile.gif

 

If not, I hope the people above me don't vote so they get dq'ed all the way to me icon_smile.gif

 

Good luck to everyone!

And what _was_ that?

 


A couple of examples would be the tricked-up images that we've all seen of "American Gothic" and "Mona Lisa". I won't worry either. icon_biggrin.gif

I love THAT task!

 

After the contest is over, I think I will make this page into a self-service page where people can post/update their current avatars themselves. icon_smile.gif

How do we vote? Is there a web site? Do we just send our votes to El Diablo? HOw many were we supposed to vote for??

 

I saw a couple/few that I think would work very well on a walking stick. I'd really like to vote for them.

I updated the Avatar Gallery with every entry that I saw. There are now 145 entries in the gallery. Sorry if I missed anyone.

I don't have a record of getting a vote from either name.

Now I'm a little worried. Did you recieve my vote email?

 

If you get lost while geocaching, don't worry. Someone else will get lost while geocaching and find you. icon_wink.gif
