Fan-Created Avatars and User Themes
Bungie Community,
Some time ago, the call was issued to provide us with graphics that we could use to dress up the forum. A lot has changed since then. Fashions have changed. Haircuts have changed. The games we support have changed. The steward of this rambunctious community (that would be me) has changed. Now that you magnificent geeks are under new management (that would be mine), I am locking the old thread and revitalizing this initiative right here. The bad news is that your old submissions will not be scrutinized. The good news is that I will personally scrutinize your new submissions myself.
You are welcome to unleash your creativity on Avatars and User Themes that will help the users of Bungie.net express themselves. We are looking for concepts that are Bungie-specific. We are not looking for iconography from the Halo universe. This website is home to Bungie fans now. We invite you to create assets that they can fly on their profiles.
[u]Guidelines[/u]:
-All files must be .GIF or .JPG.
-Portable Network Graphics (PNG) will not be accepted.
-Avatars must be 90 pixels square and less than 30k.
-User Themes must be 902 pixels wide, 260 pixels high, and less than 150k.
This invitation extends to Avatars and User Themes only. We are not accepting new Private Group Themes at this time. Please share your submissions with us by hosting them externally and linking to them in a response to this topic. And, please limit your discussion to the delivery of creative assets.
To the drawing board!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Halo biggest fan We need more theme masters.

I made every image myself. I just used Theme builder to put it all together. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ARBITOR 5 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Halo biggest fan We need more theme masters.

I'd hold off making more themes for now. And plus I don't think they are giving out the Theme Master title anymore as it uses Firebirds Theme Builder stuff, unless you did it all yourself. Still other members have said that they have made them all their self and haven't got it.[/quote]

Hmm, another 2 avatars. I don't expect either to be used, they are just for fun but you never know!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] sh228 Made this avatar just now on a whim. [url=http://sam.heybey.org/files/360bungie.gif]What if Bungie made the Xbox 360 Slim?[/url] [url=http://sam.heybey.org/files/360bungieinaction.jpg]In action[/url][/quote] Looks good, although I'd question how much Bungie wants to directly associate with Xbox/Microsoft when the likelihood is all future endeavours will be cross-platform.

It's simple, but I think it looks kind of cool. It turns out I did it in five minutes in April 2007. [url=http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/7537/demerzel.gif]Avatar[/url] [url=http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/2280/samplembn.jpg]Implementation[/url]
