New FREE Halo Avatars!
Hey all. I didn't get to post in the Avatar thread before it closed. So I'm starting a new one.
The Contest is over and I already know I lost thinks to AwoZ improving on my idea. Well done. Anyway, I figured, since we Love making Halo Avatars, why not start making some for other Fans (that can't make them) for free?
Well, I took my original Avatar and improved on it myself (still not as cool as AwoZ's. But still cool looking. Here it is:

And the Grunt on Fire Avatar I made can be personalized. Here it is with my ScreenName. I'll make one with your's if you want.

What YOU can win: Most contests have a first, second and third place prizes. That's lame. We're going to have seven: 1. Mehve artwork "Pardon our Hegemony", Bungie.net t-shirt and the ability to use an approved custom avatar on Bungie.net 2: Mehve drawing "Bless this Mess", signed + Bungie.net t-shirt 3: Mehve drawing "Gone Fishing", signed + Bungie.net t-shirt 4. Limited edition E3 Halo2 mylar print signed by artist Eddie Smith + Bungie.net t-shirt 5: Game Informer Magazine cover artwork signed by artist Eddie Smith + Bungie.net t-shirt 6: Halo 2 2003 Calendar - signed by members of Bungie + Bungie.net t-shirt 7: Exclusive E3 2004 Halo 2 mini Master Chief figure + Bungie.net t-shirt (Mehve drawings are original sketches used to create Bungie.net custom error pages) In addition to the seven prize places above, we are also going to hold two very special contest categories. One to encourage creativity and originality, and the other we made just to get EVERYONE to participate. Whomever creates the avatar which best shows the use of hand drawn art (digital or traditional) will receive a custom drawing of anything they desire from B.net's very own artist, Lorraine Mclee's. (Don't ask her draw anything weird though, ok? -- She reserves the right to overrule whatever the winner asks for and draw her own picture) ~and~ The user who submits the worst absolute avatar we receive will win a very special and extremely rare hand drawn picture of 'Mister Chief' by the bungie's content boy himself, Frank O'Conner! It will be framed! I won the last one ^^^^^^ WOOT, MISTER CHIEF

Well done.[/quote] actually i didn't even look at your avatar when i made mine. i feel sorta bad, since it looks like i "took your idea", when i didn't really mean to.[/quote] Don't feel bad. If you didn't steal it (and I don't believe you did), then you have nothing to feel bad about.

I posted them at HBO and a few people asked for the same thing. So here they both are without text.

Post your Free avatars here. If bungie wants them, they'll proberly ask you to e-mail it to them.

It's in the demo, he probably got it from that, settle down. - Trigun
-
Im not a big fan of the lens flares in "Moving Glory" and the text is kinda plain.

If he submited that Halo 2 one then he can't submit the Grunt one, now can he?
-
i think the grunt on fire one is funny but the text ruins it. The Hot! text is just distracting and the text bungie.net is not only distracting but uneeded because it would be used at bungie.net. You should take out all the text and submit it. If u do im sure they would use it. [Edited on 7/3/2004 8:29:11 AM]
