Oh wow...you listened to my advice and changed the background.
Awesomesauce.
But I fear we are not quite there, yet.
You chose the "Red nebula that incidentally looks like the fires of hell" background. Solid choice.
Now he looks like a man who enjoys the smell of napalm in the morning as it burns freedom deep into the flesh of all those who don't surf. (I like this sentence, you might want to read it twice).
The problem I currently see is with that cloudy thing in the background that is pointing towards your nose.
It looks like a big lava bogey coming out of your nostrils..

Two possible solutions:

1. Zoom your avatar one or two clicks closer. Also change the lightning effects...the fire is behind you, so the light should come from behind you as well.

2. Turn his head to the right, open his mouth. Now it will look as if he is spitting fire ,like [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqp_aPbgu4g wrote:
TROGDOR[/url], burninating the countryside!



I did read that sentence twice haha.

Well it wouldn't look like a firey bogey if I could get a cigar, I could move it then so it looks like I'm smoking pure awesome. Twisted

Also I'd give you extra likes for knowing Trogdor! Once I'm in eve I shall attempt your advice.

I have to say. This is a truly great avatar you have made here. You look like a real person in contrast to 99% of the avatars in EVE flying around looking like cartoons. Kudos to you, sir! 10/10.

I refuse to rate the avatar above me though. It's an average avatar - just another one in the crowd.

Not sure who you are talking to but im giving yours a 9/10 for being unique and giving me a good chuckle when I looked at it for the first time.

Quaidan you look sad...or you dropped something...or both. Dropped your ice cream cone? 7/10. Better pose should fix it.

What is so epic fail about my avatar? It's just as average as yours. Nothing more, nothing less. I have to say, your nerd rage is pretty pathetic. You get an honest opinion, and then you rage and get back at me by giving me 0/10? I have no problems with getting low ratings, but this one clearly smells "revenge" from miles away.

Calm down and don't take it so personally. It's hard to make an avatar that really stands out in the crowd, and I just think that there is no real need to rate something that doesn't say anything in one way or another. I got impressed by Samoth Egnoled's avatar, and posted to give him some acknowledge for his great work.

whoa now kids... settle down. This is the rate thread, not the hate thread...

@Ginger
Your's average because of how far it is zoomed out. Zoom in to just above the bust line. The shades may or may not need to come off depending on how it looks zoomed in... 5/10

Wow, two more that I wasn't trying to look like. Someone referenced William earlier. I like James Franco. Just know that it was not intentional.

Carry on.

I agree, I'd ditch the shades. What do you mean cross eyed? Can't you edit what you're looking at when you're finalizing your avatar picture?

I concur with this. The tattoo cutting into the hair spoils the look somewhat. But it definitely a very good avatar. You haven't gone overboard with the tattoos so there are just the right amount for a solid tribal look.

Also, as a personal taste issue I would lose the stud in the lower lip / chin region. The nose bar is plenty enough.

Edit for further comments.

I don't like the glasses but I must admit I do like the glare effect. Other than that it is somewhat generic in my opinion.
