My name is Operation Mindcrime.

I am a survivor living on Above Top Secret I am broadcasting on all AM frequencies. I will be in the Avatar Creation Thread everyday at mid-day, when the sun is highest in the sky.

If you are out there... if anyone is out there... I can provide food, I can provide shelter, I can provide custom avatars. If there's anybody out there... anybody... please. You are not alone.

Peace

Hey bud. I'd like to get a simple, custom background/avatar when you find time. May I PM you the details?

Thanks in advance.

You can PM me, you can post it in the thread....

Would love to help you out!!

Peace

Hmmmm...the theme of empty shopping carts (laying on their side) and mostly expended rolls of TP keeps popping into my brain. Can't quite figure out what to do with those two themes though.

**thinking**

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

Ohh...I like that idea!!

Sure we can come with something...I'll get back to you on that one.

Peace

Hey guys, I haven't been here in a few years, so was wondering what the size is for the avatar and background now.
(actually haven't been on my laptop in a couple of years. LOL)

Mine appears to be repetitive, so not sure if it's the browser or the size.


I'll have to wipe the dust off my GIMP and see if I can remember how to fix my avi.
Appears I will have a little time on my hands for a while. *sigh*



Hope everyone is doing good. Staying safe and healthy.



Thanks for your help!!

a reply to: DietWoke

Let's see if we are going in the right direction with this...



This is just a setup so I would love to hear what color scheme etc would have your preference.

Peace

a reply to: snarky412

OMG!! So great to see you checking in!!

The mini-profile background size is 200x1600 and try and keep it around 150/200Kb (I believe I keep forgetting to check the file size before posting results and some members are going around with oversized avatars because of me...lol)

The avatar dimensions are as they always were 198 pixels wide and 420-480 pixels tall.

Anyway...welcome back!!!

Maybe we can have some fun with FCD's idea of a toilet paper apocalypse avatar.

Peace

a reply to: operation mindcrime

It's awesome! I think the magenta works (red-pilled motif.)

It seems the avatar covers the logo though when I try it on. Maybe that will have to go below the "stats" area or both avatar and background need to be combined?

You would know best OM.

Thanks yet again x 1000!

Don't forget the upended shopping cart.

a reply to: DietWoke

Okay...I'll refine the bubbles a bit because they seem a little out of focus.

About the avatar...I could lift the character from it's original image and place it in the logo or I could drop the whole logo below your stats. Either way won't be a problem so let me know which you would like to see..

You're the artist! I came to you because I trust your judgement.

I most definitely want to keep the context of the avatar though, armchair, lamp, etc.

a reply to: DietWoke

Let's see if this works better...



I hope it aligns a bit with your statistics bar...

Peace

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

Forget it?!? How could I forget the shopping cart!!


Peace

a reply to: operation mindcrime

How does this look?

Hmph...what am I doing wrong? I uploaded it to ATS, and copied it into my background, but I got nuttin'.

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk
Did you want to use this one? I still have to refine it....it's kind of sloppy...lol

Are you setting it as mini-profile background image?



It works for me...

Peace

a reply to: operation mindcrime

THERE we go!!

Thx.

Now we've got to move the warning sign down a bit, or maybe just some white space at the top. Both signs are kind of blocked, but it looks AWESOME!!

a reply to: operation mindcrime

I cut out a small part for the logo to be visible.

Thanks again OM, for volunteering your time.

a reply to: operation mindcrime

PERFECT!!!

Once again...YOU ARE THE MASTER!!

Thanks a MILLION, OM!! Your talents are fantastic!!!

so I just checked if Netflix had "Twelve Monkeys" on their server....so if nobody has any design work I'll be popping open a cold one and watching this classic again.

Stay healthy ATS



Peace
