+jicknarson Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Wow - is this offer still good? I would love someone to design an avatar for me - something a little out there, simple, incorporating some kind of geocaching theme... Or can just be a graphic of some sort. I have no inate creativity, so this is totally beyond me. My user name doesn't really apply - it is an inside family joke, non-related to caching. I am open to suggestions! Thanks in advance......

+jicknarson Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 If I could define "out there" I could probably design an avatar! I see I opened the door for some out there ideas... ummm.... loved em and laughed....but not sure they are how I want to represent myself... for sure not the pumpkin butt. A simple image, not a complicated picture, something not really mainstream - I guess that would pretty well apply to geocaching in general.... Wish I had a better idea what direction to go in.

Hobbies besides caching? Something "fun"? Odd? Mcabre? I have had to design things for customers before that they couldn't describe. On an hourly basis, I enjoyed it. When it was priced per job, it sucked. Quote Link to comment
+BCandMsKitty Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I'll see if I can come up with something, but it will be a day or two. Working 12 hour night shifts till Monday. Doesn't leave much time for playing. Looks like bittsen is on a roll though. You'll likely get something soon. Quote Link to comment

Fun and odd are good. Macabre... cool, but maybe not me. I cache with my golden retriever - not so macabre. Thanks for thinking... I am working this weekend, not much computer time or opportunity to respond.... Quote Link to comment

+LaxRef93 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Hi.. I was wondering if I could get some help with an avatar. I am a women's lacrosse referee (hence the nick laxrefd3.. the d3 was my rating at the time.. I should have just been LaxRef, but now with over 200 finds, I don't want to change my name and re-log everything.. but I digress..) Anyway, I was thinking of a referee whistle with a circular version of the geocaching logo in the round part of the whistle.. or maybe with the 4 colors used somewhere throughout.. or whatever someone who is more talented than I can come up with. Any help would be appreciated! Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks in advance! Something like this? This looks cool! Thanks for the quick response! Now seeing it, wondering if there was a way to incorporate lacrosse sticks? Maybe 2 sticks criss-crossed horizontally across the bottom? Maybe just the lacrosse stick head watermarked behind the whistle? Maybe the part where you blow into the whistle more horizontal and the sticks in the space to the right of the circle part? I am not sure what I'm trying to envision, and maybe it won't look as good as what you did with the whistle alone.. No problemo How about this? Hi Bittsen, I have a favor, and if you can't do it that's ok.. but I think what this one was missing was the whistle turned more horizontal (like how the current one you made me is). I like this one because actually I think I like the fact of the dark gray sticks with the gray whistle, and the fact of the sticks behind, and the whistle more horizontal, it almost would look like a compass rose (maybe even put a dark brown or gray or something, actual compass rose behind it). I like the one you made, but I may like this revision just a little more Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment

This is getting a lot closer.. the sticks line up almost perfectly like I thought they would.. I just don't know if the color of the compass is right. What do you think? I love the style of it, but is it too dark compared to the whistle? Maybe it needs to be about 25% or 50% transparent or something? Do you think it needs to be bigger so that the tips of the sticks are at the edge of the compass? Quote Link to comment
