Thanks everyone for your kind words and as always if anyone wants an avatar made just for them, all you have to do is ask..

Fantastic! I love the turtle in the "cosmic seagrass" and well, the mermaid is perfect!
Thank you so much again, for your personal creation.

The bubbles are awesome! My favorite too! Love them all.

Ok, time for some more artwork.. it has been a while lol.

Heres some background avatar examples, theyre only examples, for the whole avatar click here then picture gallery and finally the background avatars folder. You can take anything that doesnt have a title i.e. a members name on it or if it says mine.. because thats er.. mine.

When you find an image you like, click on it to expand it, cut the background code, go to the ATS store (in the account settings) click on the background image (its the free one lol) then paste the code there.

Background avatars wont show up on your profile page, so dont panic if you dont see it. But it will be shown on your posts / threads.

Here we go:









The last one was made for my friend destiny-fate, so it belongs to her. Theme was based on Alice in Wonderland.

Theres a few more at the workshop and I will keep uploading new stuff over there. If you want any changes made to the backgrounds just let me know or if you would like a new background or a normal avy just ask, its not a problem.

Thanks,

JQ.

Hi there. I went to your profile, and read that you have recently lost a friend. I am so very sorry. I've lost them, too. I know how much it hurts.

I desperately need an avatar, as I am so tired of looking at my blank and uninteresting self.

I have found one here that I love so much, and wanted to speak with you.
I don't have enough points, yet, to u2u. Would you mind terribly contacting me? I know you might not feel up to this now, in view of your loss, but as soon as you do, please let me know.

With kindest regards,
liw

Its no problem.. thanks for the kind words though. Just let me know what you would like and I will start working on it. Ive sent you a u2u.

Take care,

JQ.

Hi again, John Q. We discussed my avy scene, and I think I said I would like either a day time, or night time scene.

After thinking about this, I really think the day time scene works better for me. (I'm not waiting for aliens, don't want to give that impression lol).

But I'm just loving the one I initially spoke with you about, and it's day time, and I want to build around it.

Thank you. If you have begun working on a night one, I'm sure it's beautiful, so let me see it. But otherwise, think I'll just go with the day one.

Thanks again. Hope you are having a good weekend.
liw

Hiya,

Heres the first avatar (ive decided to make a couple) its changed a little because I couldnt find the image I wanted (and im still looking ... lol, which is why there will be another avy.. i hope lol)

Anyway this one is a background avy, go to the workshop, click on the background folder.. your avatar has your name on it, click on it to expand the image... cut the background code, go to your account settings, then ATS store, click on background image (free one) paste the code in there... job done. lol.

In the background folder is a blank avatar, click on this, take the avatar code, then go to your account settings, paste the code in the avatar space... this will expand the text around your avatar.

Hope you like it..


Again this is just an example, full avatar is in the background folder.

Ive started work on the second one, same theme but using different images.. should be up in a few days. Any problems just let me know either here or u2u.

Thanks, have fun,

JQ.

HI! I came here to parade my avatar for all to admire and enjoy!

I really don't know how to thank you. You are so very talented, and so personally charming also. Thank you so much for helping me. You really went above and beyond for me, and I am truly grateful.

Now I have to go flaunt my beautiful new avatar around the forums!

Hi.. sorry its taken so long to make your second avy, but here it is... ta da.

Its still the same theme (but this time at night) and as before i struggled to find the images I wanted... but it kinda worked out ok.

Hope you like:



This is just an example, the whole avatar is in the background avatars folder in the workshop... has your name on it.

If you want to change / swap your avatars around (at anytime) let me know and I will walk you through it or we can do the same as before

Cheers,

JQ.

Imagine that I am clicking on multiple stars and flags.........

(Wish I could).

Ok.. this is a background avy for bringthelight

Hope you like it, again its just an example. The actual avatar is to long to post here. If you go to the Avatar Workshop (link is in my signature), click picture gallery, then click background avatars (folder)... your avatar has your name on it. Click on the image to expand it... then take the background code (cut and paste stuff) go to the ATS store, click on background image (free) and paste the code.

You can also find a blank avatar in the background folder, put that in your avatar space in your account settings, it helps exapnd the text. Any probs just u2u me.

Anyway... heres the avy lol.



Hope you like it... let me know if you want another one, different images, style, etc..

Cheers,

JQ.

Thanks.. Im glad you liked it. I did enjoy making that one. If you ever want another one just ask. lol.

Cheers,

JQ.

----------------------------------------

Ok, next avy lol ... Tartarspoon, yours is nearly ready (today or tomorrow) and its very creepy, very dark and I didnt enjoy making it lol... just adding some more detail..

See ya.

Heres an avy for Tartarspoon..

I found this one really hard to get into but I think I got there in the end. Theres loads of different images in there, some stuff you can just about see. lol.

As always this is just the example, full avatar is the background folder at the workshop. The workshop link is in my signature. If you have any problems finding it or uploading then just u2u me.

Heres the creepy avy lol..





Hope you like it,

Cheers,

JQ.

I wouldn't change a thing! You captured exactly what I had envisioned
lots of little details that truly show your skills.

Thank you for your hard work, I greatly appreciate it.

hey,
would someone mind taking a screenshot of my avatar so i can see how the "ignore" text and the tiling of background image is working?

thanks a ton in advance!!!
