Any chance we can SH|T-CAN the vampire-barbie character creator and I could get my old avatar back?

Are you ******* high? The Old "Avatar" graphics looked like 1985 Nintendo compared to what we have now. GTFO and stop being an idiot.

If you don't like your avatar then make it look less like a cross-dressing vampire-barbie.

It's not CCP's fault that your character portrait creation skills are rather lousy...

Back to the old? Come on man, the character creator is one of the best new features since long time. Who cares it's a try-out for WoD? It works, and portraits have really been improved ever since (except maybe yours... according to yourself, that is).

I'm in the "new portraits suck" camp. Sure, the graphics are fine. Well, except for the boring lighting... seems New Eden has no "atmospheric lighting" technology. But I'm not impressed by graphics... if I want good visuals, I can go outside. It's the art that sucks. It sucks oh so bad. The faces all look samey... the clothes all look samey. It's a bland unflavored porridge, of varying shades of grey. There is not a single part of it that could be described as "fun," unlike the old art assets, which were quirky, eccentric, stylistic, and good.

Maxim 6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.

Are you certain you have not become colourblind over the years?

Can you see the 14?

I wouldn't mind getting back the variety and styling of the old portraits, since they looked like “EVE” rather than EuroFuture 2010™

…other than that: OP — long walk, short pier, please combine to your liking.

Since the older avatars gave a lot less IQ, i think that in your case, that would be suicidally bad
