a reply to: gwynnhwyfar

You are too kind! TY though, it is very nice of you to say that!

You can take the goth one if you wish...any of them are really free to a good home. I tend to make new ones on a regular basis. Surprisingly, doing these avatars help me with my other RL art.

Anyhow, take anyone you wish..just let me know if you do so we don't end up wearing the same outfit!

Thanks,

I sent you a PM with a concept for an avatar. I must admit, BFFT did a great job on the one you have. I couldn't come up with anything as creative as that...if you look at what I sent and like where it's going, just let me know. If not, I'm sure BFFT would make you a new one if you asked..

Thanks,

Oh wow. Some great ones on here. Just wow. So artistic.

...................and bump.

i have another contribution, one i practiced on a long time ago. a bit of a autumn one.

i wonder what happened with our competition, i feel rather silly having entred officially. maybe we just should do them for show. just a question, how do you guys feel?

Very nice!!!!!

Really missed participating this year but my tablet has too many limitations to my creativity sadly. Love looking at all the entries and non entries alike...and I voted! Good Luck and Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone!





These really creep me out for some reason...especially the last one.

what a shame that equipment held you from participating, i missed your input.

that is exactly the reason why i dismiss the tablets. i find even typing mails with them frustrating. it has to be at least a good laptop. even when i travel, i still carry a laptop with me to be of some kind of creative with my photographs i take.

happy halloween to you and to all

Happy Halloween everyone.
Not as many entries as hoped for, but great ones nonetheless.
I'll go through and decide who won....in the next day or so.

Thanks for joining in the fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for that. Yes it's frustrating. I was using my sons laptop and neither of us have made it a priority to replace it. Some day soon I guess...cause I have hundreds of images waiting to be transformed into avatars. Till then I'm just thankful I have a device to log in with.

Lucia yours is great
love the expression on the witch

Hey - Who won the contest (besides all of us for getting to peek at so many great entries)?
