I personally don't love it, which is why I'm sticking with mine.
IDEA:
1. Photochop that cute SOB Jr. reporter for the Hawks on the guy's face for the "Dewey defeats Truman" photo.
2. Edit the paper "Hawks win game 7"
I'm not sure if it's feasible, but that's the cheeky **** that gets us hate around here and I love it conceptually.

Just take the Ryp logo out and put the SC logo in. We all love Ryp, but it may not be the best idea. Also yeah, I'm wondering if we're going to have these as we hit the playoffs or not? Playoff push avatars and playoff avatars are totally different.

I'll try it.
EDIT: Did you have a look at the newspaper in the original photograph beforehand?
The Chicago Daily Tribune. Perfect.

I assumed they were the same.
Why the hell do we need playoff push avatars? There's not much suspense, is there?

We're on a two game losing streak here, these playoff push avatars is a good motivator.

I just watched the movie "The Grey". And yes I liked it.
Got me thinking that the Canucks are Liam Neeson and the wolves are everyone chasing us and trying to kill us.
btw: in the ending credits, they thank the "Vancouver Canucks Organization"

Maybe we could flip these for the playoffs and put famous people's heads on players. Anyone know if that has been done?

That could be amazing. I'm in favour.
Could someone take out the sickle and add the Canucks logo into this one for me?

If at all possible, could I get:
With Henrik's face instead of Francois Pienaar's.
I'm gonna caption it with 'Close Enough'
Thanks

Can someone shop one of the more vocal Canucks players (or maybe AV?) on to this picture of Eugene Debs and make me an avatar?

You should put Hodgson's face on it with the caption "GIVE ME MORE ICE TIME".

To do so would cheapen and dishonor one of the great forgotten figures of American history. I refuse to do so

Hey guys, I've seen the most recent requests and I'll get working on them tomorrow afternoon when I get home from work. Just want you to know I'm not ignoring the requests.

If we do end up doing an Avengers theme for the playoff avatars, then Manny with an eyepatch needs to be Nick Fury.

Could I have the famous Karsh Churchill portrait with Gillis's head? Then maybe the slogan "the mastermind"

You guys have the most creative playoff avatars on the boards for years now. Tip of the hat to you guys. You never cease to amaze me and make me LOL. The Schneider/Tiananmen square one is gold!

how about Edler and the Orr goal?
I was thinking the 802 Gretzky goal too but I can't get a good shot of both the number and the face. MacLean seems to show up fine in them tho...
