Avatars, My worthness two cents Options

[Southside Coleman]

Face it, most of the animals you can think of can be put into one of the eight avatars.


Squirrels and Raccoons can be Canine because of the pointy ears and bushy tails. The head would need to be rounder and the tail more stand-up for a squirrel but that's what immagination is for. Anteaters might also be considered for the canine, they've got bushy tails and long snouts.


Porcupines and Hedgehogs could either be Mustie or Rodent. Depending on how much you obsess over the short tail and how short the Musties are.

Any bird immaginable (even penguins and chickens) fit the Pheonix. However, when you look at how obnoxiously big the Pheonix avatar is you might want to re-think your character choice. As for the payment, you might want to think of it as supporting Furcadia. And there's always some sort of contest going on. Eugh.

Lizard things can be Dragons, without saying. But again I want to bring up how horribly big the avatar is. Is that... nessisary? I mean, there's giant cats being played, so I'm sure we could immagine the dragons that big instead of taking over half the screen. I've seen people go on about how big the Furc download is already. Well, it seems to me the size of the dragons takes up about half the download! (*insert humor*)

But there's a few animals that the current avatars don't fit. Like Kangaroos and Shelled Animals (as brought up in another topic). Armadillo types could be turtles, as pointed out. And those wonderful down-under creatures just... don't fit the other avatars very well.

However, I wouldn't be surprised if the next avatar would be the insects. Not only do we need them, but you can put those furre-sized ant guards in your dream. That'd work for all insects.

Point=?

Was that even a suggestion?

[Southside Coleman]

No. I was just ranting.

[Youlanda]

Cockroaches would rule.

We could all be Kagemushi.

[Cormallen]

But isn't he a canine instead?

(For those who don't get it, I like giving Kage the name 'Kagemushi' instead. )

[Saji]

You were right, that was worthless.

*grin*

[Youlanda]

Uncle Kage - AKA Kagemushi is the CEO of Anthrocon. And he's not our Kage, btw.

You can visit his website at: http://www.unclekage.com
And you can meet him in furrson at: http://www.anthrocon.com

[Cormallen]

That's why I play mindgames with names. It's fun to see what you can make up or re-name another furre. Try it.

[Ayumi-Snowe]

Speaking of Uncle Kage, does anyone remember Spinel Sun's roach patch? =P

[Youlanda]

No but I'll ask Spinel Sun to see it.

Oh wait I do!

It was werd.

I'll still ask if I can see it. I'll load it up in Lanacele for s***s and giggles.

I think was more a suggestion aimed at people who complain about avatars, telling them how to get around the problem of there not being an avator for every species.  That is, rather than it being a suggestion to the programmers and such.
