I agree that if we go with History we should avoid using historical figures that are too controversial/potentially offensive.

As long as the image is altered properly it shouldn't be a big deal.

Agreed.

If we do, and likely do, History Will Be Made avatars, I'd like to use the part of Reverend Mayhem's avatar that he's using now, of when it says "Vancouver Canucks, Stanley Cup playoffs" I really love that image on the avatar there. Looks vintage, like the theme the History Will Be Made commercials are like.

Guys, it's clear that the Star Wars ones and the History will be made ones are neck and neck-- before shooting ourselves in the foot and picking one over the other, shouldn't we stop and think "We haven't even SEEN any of these yet?"

Let's go nuts making has many humorous ones as we can of both and then decide based on the results. An elimination poll is just silly.

I switched from star wars to history will be made

star wars is a little overdone

xtra · 03-06-2012, 12:07 AM

Wait so are we switching and getting new avatars when the playoffs roll around?

I think that would be beautiful.

Yes it would be too much.

When it comes to him I don't think there's any other option aside from

"David Wilkes Booth"

;D

Some potential history images to use

The pink shirt will work great for Lappy

Alexander the Great (Edler or Burrows?)

None shall pass Hamhuis

I was attempting to Photoshop his head into a picture of Lincoln being assassinated, but the process of doing that just felt so wrong and creepy that I ended up turning it off.

Yes, we're getting playoff avatars done. And no, you don't HAVE to switch your avatar to them, but the more we posters we get wearing them, the better.

Mojo Risin* · 03-06-2012, 12:26 AM

This is what i came up with. I'll use it for now but someone else can
Probably do a better photo editing job than me

pavlelink · 03-06-2012, 12:39 AM

my attempt at Lappy one.
I had to make it B&W cuz i'm bad at adjusting colours.

Can someone put 4 sedins and 1 schneider on the Dionne Quintuplets for me and make an avatar with the history will be made theme?

Allow me.

EDIT: It's really not showing up well when scaled down to 125 x 125. :/

PG Canuck · 03-06-2012, 12:56 AM

So, History Will Be Made is the playoff theme this year for the playoffs?

Shoeless Joe · 03-06-2012, 01:07 AM

Sticking with arnie one liners....

thepuckmonster · 03-06-2012, 01:08 AM

First of many to come. Do we like?

Too bad I'll keep looking - if it turns out okay. It could be labled The Canuck Quintuplets.

Yes, but I think remove the names Kesler and Burrows. Let people figure that out.

Also, I think Stanley Cup Playoffs is redundant on the first page since it is in the Playoff logo. For mine I'd rather have Embrace the Hate there.

Agreed. Perhaps thepuckmonster would be able to to a sample of this so we can see what it looks like?

On a sidenote, I want one for Maxim Lapierre, but don't have an idea on what to do it for. Any suggestions? I saw that one of Lappy's head photoshopped on breaking the Berlin Wall, but any others I could use?

It should say: "Trolling the Wall." Or, "Trolling. It brought down Communism."

And I think they should probably all be in black and white, if possible.

This is dying for the swedes to be in Viking helmets discovering Newfoundland.
