Vote For 22nd - 28th January Avatar Theme!

[Havell]

You may have noticed that there aren't any gaming related options on this one. This is intentional. They'll be back next week (probably).

Anyway, same rules as last week apply. Keep voting unitl around *pm GMT tomorrow where the poll officially closes and the new theme decided upon. If you have any new (and good) suggestions post them here and I may just add them to the poll.

[TheChosen]

Where's the commodore games?

[Havell]

There are no gaming related options this week. As said in my first post here. I don't want this to turn into an exclusively gaming thing.

[Kearnsy]

SPider + Flies!! Hooray! :Brain:

[TheChosen]

Woops! I didnt read carefully....

Okay, i vote for flies.

[Eagle of Fire]

I see that favorite composer is on a small lead right now... However, I can't even understand what "favorite composer" really mean...

[BeefontheBone]

Ooooh, scientists. I want a Richard Dawkins avatar (plenty of anti-Creationists quotes to choose from :))

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Firefox. I still know what EoF will pick for Firefox. (Hint: Wikipedia)

[Yobor]

This is way closer than the other one. Crazy.

[Eagle of Fire]

Bobbin: I'm more refined than that. I have a very good looking avatar ready just in case Firefox win. :sneaky:

[allyfaucet]

Flies! Flies!!

[punch999]

firefox

[Frodo]

Yes, but then they won't be the same topic. It will look messed. As Havell said. Micheal Caine ( :tomato: ) week was cool because we all had pretty similar ones. If we had a movie one (continuing joke) we would have a LOTR one.

[Don Andy]

Damn, seems like Firefox is going to win :crazy:

But I have just the right Avatar and sig ready for it :sneaky:

[Bobbin Threadbare]

As do I. Google Images for Firefox. When get past about page 10 you see som pretty cool FF pwns IE stuff.

[Eagle of Fire]

So, what do you guys think of this avatar? I find it good, even if I say so myself. :)

Edit: here is the other avatar Bobbin was refering to. I prefer the little fox tough, much more classy. :)

Flies would be funny! But also subtle.

Composers would be cool, of course, but I wouldn't know what to do!

How do I know this? I also googled for fox for mine. You'll see why.

Image= bad photoshop paint. (no offense)

[punch999]

I never said it was paint. I said it was Photoshop and you used the paintbrush too and lowered capacity. Giving you the effects you used. But you said you used Gimp so I don't know why I'm posting his. Meh..........

[swiss]

Are you singing that song fram the ABCKids show "Spider and Fly"?

[Iron_Scarecrow]

Is this musical composers?

Like any band?

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Aww.. Man. Now I have to make another av.

.:EDIT:.
I'm using Beethoven.

@Scarecrow. I have the EXACT same calculator.

[Kearnsy]

hehehe... just like I said in the Fun game section, didn't I Bobbin! :whistle: :max:

Off topic: I have a big tank of a graphics calculator... great for fun algebraic problems!

[Iron_Scarecrow]

Calculator?

What the...

Oh the photo of Barry. Yeah they're good calculators.

[Don Andy]

Ok, Composer then :tai:

Still quite unsure about the term "composer". Does that mean just the old guys, like Mozart, Beethoven and stuff, or does it include like anybody who ever made a song?

[Iron_Scarecrow]

I'll participate in this one if we can pick any band.

[Eagle of Fire]

Erm guys... It was clear that at the 22th it was Firefox which won, if you look at the date of our posting. I'm not making a new avatar.

[Havell]

Nope, sorry. It was made clear that the poll ends at 8pm GMT (well, it says "*pm" in my first post, but you get the idea), that's in two hours time. The theme with the most votes then is the official avatar theme. As Firefox was such a popular option this week it'll be in next week's poll (if it doesn't win).

EDIT: And favourite composer can mean absolutely anyone who writes songs/music.

[Sebatianos]

Well, the term composer means the person who created the song. It doesn't matter who sung it, the guy who wrote the music is the importaint one!

[Eagle of Fire]

Ok... So I'm simply not going to participate this week it seems. I don't have a favorite composer nor do I even know one.

[Havell]

Favourite Composer it is. I'll do all the official things and change my avvy.

[Don Andy]

OK, I hope I do this right.
I checked, Till Lindemann writes the songs for Rammstein, so he's the composer, right?

[Doubler]

Well, seems like I haven't put the work in for nothing :)
Me = participating

[ReamusLQ]

Yay for composers!

Now if someone could make me a really cool sig, that would be awesome, but if not <shrug> I'm cool.

[allyfaucet]

Now if someone could make me a really cool sig, that would be awesome, but if not <shrug> I'm cool.

You forgot to tell who your favorite composer is! (Although, I think I have a pretty good idea of who) ;)

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Looky at my new avatar. :D

[Puffin]

I like mine :)
Emil Thoroddsen.

:D That's totally cute! Just because of the little violin :P

Edit: LOL He has white hair, too.

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Ya and the writing I have is from the violin pic.

[TheGiantMidgit]

Mr. Young. Sure, I could go with the classics (I used to play in the local symphony even) but being as powerful as they are, they just don't grab me like a man with a guitar, a harmonica and a raspy, windy voice with something to say.

[Blood-Pigggy]

My favorite composer is the plumber with the monkey wrench who makes beautiful music with the skulls of his opposition.

[TheGiantMidgit]

Too bad your avatar doesn't reflect it, but instead boasts one Dr. Freeman, saviour of the Black Mesa personell.

[Blood-Pigggy]

No, he is the savior of lemon-lime pear cider from Ikea.

The plumber part obviously refers to Mr. Sheperd.

Super Mario + Monkey Island 2 + Indy Jones and the Last Crusade?

[Blood-Pigggy]

No,

Jesus + Homer's The Illiad.

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Fair enough.

[allyfaucet]

Yay! Looks like I'm participating in this one :D

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Nice, Ally. You should give the penguin a composer stick.

In that case, I have to choose Joss Whedon.


For those of you who don't know, he is the mastermind behind the Buffy and Angel tv shows.

Here are the songs he created - http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/wooper/
Which are taken from here http://musical.chosentwo.com/main.php

[TheChosen]

How about Bach?

[Sebatianos]

Or Brahms, Tschaikowsky, Gershwin, List, Verdi, Puccinni, Bernstein, Weber, Debusy, Porter, Joplin (I ment Scott, not Janis, but both would work)... Hell, there are too many of them.

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Firefox next week. :D

[#BlakhOle#]
