Thiis is the first Avatar we had in the contest.If I am mistaken I appologise but I think it was Hammerman who designed it.I really like the skull.What say we have HEART STOPPERS in place of ILNYPAKY-EH and have an arrow going through a heart between the antlers--lol
Sorry guys,just throwing out some ideas

Whitetail great work.What program are you guys using to created such beautiful artwork

lol...I hear sarcasm in that...lol

But, Photoshop CS3, Macintosh Tower (Dual G4), 22" Cinema Display (color corrected)... not much really.

No really,no sarcasm here bud(you would know when you get to know me better--lol-- ) I have been wanting to try different things like that but my patient level just dosnt allow it

I can come up with some great ideas but to put it on computer,well,I will leave that up to the guys with more knowledge then me

I am very new at graphic design, I usually just focus on web design. I am also getting into photography or should I say, being pushed into photography by the company I work for.

Its cool though, might be able to use this new skill of photography into wildlife photography or something...dunno.

Just bought my new house and working on the basement for my trophys.Anyone have any ideas as how to display them.I am thinking on putting Pine (tongue and groove) up and some stone(brickwork) with maybe a woodstove--hmmmmm
These are some pics of my trophys,hope you guys enjoy.They are not all of them but dont have the others on film yet--soon though

The design that I did was just to give everyone an idea of what I was thinking. I dont have photoshop so I couldnt really make anything cool. I just wanted to let everybody chew on my thoughts and see if they wanted to go with it. I still cant figure out how to make an avatar. My personal one is just a cropped picture. HA! I cheated! All I did was just sketch my design on a piece of paper and scanned it. I tried downloading a trial photoshop but no luck. If my design was chosen somebody that has photoshop can take it and do their own design to match. Mines just a thought nothing more. But thanks for taking a look at it.Jason nice walleye dude. That things a monster. Dont have any that big in TN just Sauger. Caught about a 3 1/2lber a couple years ago though.

This is my outline. Sorry photobucket didnt work.Mike, check and see if it is something everybody is happy with and come up with something that looks better (instead of a freehand sketch). Jeremy likes it I dont know is anyone else besides Jason has looked at it. I think they like the overall concept but it needs to be "enhanced".

Just got back to my desk figured I would give your idea a shot.

I dont know about everybody else but I like it. Just my opinion but Id shrink the heart and replace the pin guard with something rounder and lighter color but still keep it defined. Im just suggesting, there is no way I can create what you just posted so dont be offended.
