post a little description about your signature or avatar!
say where you got the idea from, share a story behind it, or whatever!

avatar - i like calvin and hobbes. they are VERY funny comic strips. and one day henner was able to upgrade it from the distracting eyesore white background to a transparent one. thanks dude!

signature

-obviously there is an awesome Goten made sig, fresh from double G's stall (Gotens graphics stall). thanks goten!

-my RS stat sig is something i added to show my progress to anyone interested. i started out playing RSC back in the day, and this is a little reminder of those fun times. also, with this sig, anyone can contact me if they would like me to assist with any stat, or simply say woah! i wish i had 90 mining! (ssshhh. it will be there soon haha)

-the CCmod tag is there. i really like the CC. i spend lots of time there and enjoy chatting with other villagers.

-the GuideWriters tag is there, cause i am part of that team too. although i havnt posted any of my incomplete quest guides.

-the MM6 comes from a comment Tanks made in a reply to one of my posts. i had never thought of shortening up my name, but once i read it, i really liked it. it kinda reminds me of a secret agent... 007 / MI6 secret agent type deal.

The signature is something I got into doing before my name change from kikori kid -> arsenicCatnip -> Kikori, having my name in signature with sprite equivalents of my friends (real life or here) surrounding my name upon a Flyff environment background.
The little guy on the right is a Goten creation. Love it.

My current avatar went up along with my name change for the recent video game themed month thing. It was Shiki for quite a long time though.

My signature comes from the Final Fantasy Tactics remake. It's extremely important to me, but I'm not going to go into details on why. Thinking about changing it, though. I've had it for nearly 3.5 years, but I haven't found anything I like more to replace it with yet. Might have to downgrade my standards, haha.

I need to re-upload my avatar...

My signature comes out of the classic/retro cartoon month we had about a year ago. I love The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, so I kept it as that. When I went away for several months due to school, it kinda stayed there and I lost the code which had my old signature. I have Goten's character which he made for me in the past now part of it

It's a picture of Jim Lahey (played by John Dunsworth), my favorite character from one of my favorite shows, Trailer Park Boys. Before that, for years, it was just a .gif of a headbanging stickman because I love rock/metal music.

Signature: I recently changed my sig to the .gif you now see, which I just thought looked awesome. I don't know where it came from or what it is, my best guess is the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Before that, for several years, my sig was one made my Penguinguy, and it featured Squall from Final Fantasy VIII; from the scene in the beginning It said "lionheart" and had my name on it. The quote is by the writer quoted, and it was in one of my english professor's email signatures and is one of the truest things I've read.

Signature: I like having a signature with a nice scenery in the back and the castle sort of fits with the medieval theme.

Avatar

My avatar has evolved quite a bit. It was made by Troggy, and some other folks (including myself) have made different versions and adjustments to it over time.


#1. Original, by Troggy (Known as Trogdar X back then)
I had made a request topic asking for an avatar of my RS character, offering 65k GP. Some of the entries were really good, but Troggy's was my favorite. There are quite a few differences between this original version and the one I'm using right now. Look over to the left if you want to compare the two.


#2. Easter version
This is utter crap. The easter basket turned out fine, but I made the bunny ears too large, and for some reason the top part of my head has gone missing! I used it once.


#3. St. Patrick's Day version
I like how this one turned out. It's nothing amazing, but I was happy with it at the time.


#4. Christmas version 1.0
This one sucks. I knew it sucked, too, but I was too lazy to make it better. I was only going to use it for a month, so who cares?


#5. Some small changes
Changed the size and color of the rune hatchet. A few people were saying that it the original looked too much like an adamant hatchet.


#6. Pink Month version
Yay pink month!


#7. Christmas version 2.0
A much better santa hat. Clearly my pixelling skills have improved.


#8. Halloween version, by Dark Paladin
I didn't have any fancy Halloween avatar. I guess I was too lazy or something. Dark Paladin was nice enough to make one for me.


#9. Color/shading adjustments version 1.0
Using some slightly less-vibrant colors here, and shaded the username part at the bottom so it isn't solid white. Looks a lot more natural, I think.


#10. Christmas version 3.0
Nothing really different. Just the xmas hat on the newly colored avatar.


#11. Color/shading adjustments version 2.0, by Goten
Goten actually made this one a few days after I started using #9, but I didn't use it because I'm stupid or something. Several months later, while looking through my PM inbox, I found this version in the PM sent by Goten and realized that it looks much better than what I was using.


#12. Fusion Month version, by Goten
Jackstick + Goten = Jackten and Gostick! I forget what Goten used for his Fusion Month avatar.


#13. Pink Month version 2.0
Pink robes yay! This is basically just a pinkified version of #11. No pink purple party hat this time.


#14. Halloween version 2.0, by Goten
Awesome jack o' lantern for an awesome Jack O' Lantern.


#15. Color/shading adjustment version 3.0, by Goten
Goten being awesome again. Smoother shading, some slight adjustments to the eyes so they're not solid black.


#16. Christmas version 4.0
Improved the shading and coloring of the santa hat to better match Goten's color and shading adjustments.


#17. Console Wars Month
Added an animated Mr. Mew to the avatar for Console Wars Month. Mr. Mew is from the Nintendo DS game The World Ends With You. I loved it so much that it is now a permanent part of my avatar.

Signature


Kawaii~ Anime Girls Month
I made this sig for Kawaii~ 2010. The girl in the signature is Ibuki Fuko (aka Fu-chan) from the Clannad anime series. The original render can be found here. Resized it, adjusted the angle so that it could fit in a sig, and placed it over a a snowy background (don't remember where the snowy bg is from). I had only planned to use it for a month and go back to my Elfen Lied sig, but it's too awesome to use for only one month and anyway it was time for a change.


Goten's RS Characters
Basically the best signature series ever. Nuff said.

__________________

I'm missing a bunch of avatars but these are the ones I found on my computer;


Tan Cavalier ver. 1
This was my first Tan Cavalier avatar. I had a couple random avatars before this - It was my favorite piece of headgear in-game at the time. Later on, during the rise of the Fake Four, Andrey, Boa, and Rab adopted the tan cav as our "logo" - So I kept hold of the avatar and updated it through the years just as a trademark of sorts.


Tan Cavalier ver. 2
Updated with better shading, linework, and pretty much superior in every way.


Tan Cavalier ver. 3
This was the "final" update to my avatar's basic design - Cleaner shading and a leaner feather.


Pink Month Ver. 2
Pretty much the best month ever. I made this one for the second Pink Month because the one I recolored for the first Pink Month was lost when I got a new computer and forgot to transfer a ton of files over. The only real difference is that the original had a pink feather as well.


Gostick
Fusion month with Jackstick. Gostick is best stick. Unsure why this one isn't transparent but whatever.


Ghosten ver. 1 (Halloween ver. 2)
Halloween of either '08 or '09, I forget. First time I namechanged to "Ghosten" for October (Halloween month). My original halloween avatar was a patched-up tan cav with spiderwebs on it, lost in the computer transfer.


Ghosten ver. 2 (Halloween ver. 3)
The following Halloween I namechanged to Ghosten again, and changed my avatar because the blue/green coloring seemed weird to me.


THIS IS NOT THE END
I made this for the temp. forums of '09, when we lost almost a year's loss of post records. It was complimented by my "THIS IS NOT THE END" signature.


Christmas ver. 2
Second version of my Christmas avatar - The first version being my normal tan cav wrapped in a scarf with a candy cane in place of the usual feather, which was lost in my computer switch.

And I've had like a million signatures which I won't bother digging up/uploading.

I made my signature the day the Vet Cape released. Once I bought it, I decided afterward I would put it into a signature. Took a screenshot of my character's back sitting down with the cape on and blackened out everything but the recognizable design on the cape to create a divine silhouette. I used a picture I found on Google years ago, and altered with the colors slightly on Photoshop CS2 to give it more of a night time feel. Shmop has been my nickname since I was a kid, so it grew as a permanent nickname.


My avatar is the hands of Mr. Dallas Green, my personal hero/idol. I've played drums for 14 years, but discovered a second love for acoustic guitar, which I concluded by mixing with clean vocals. I first heard Dallas Green as guitarist and vocalist for Alexisonfire, but discovered his solo project, "City & Colour" in late 2005, not long after he released his first album. I became hooked immediately to his overall sound and related to his lyrics in more ways then I could have ever imagined. Since then, I have always looked up to him.
