Thanks, Eff! :biggrin:

What has been changed, MsMary?
I admit I am not seeing a difference from what it was.

It has the current variation of my name on the board. :)


It has been bugging me a long time that my avatar no longer matched my forum name, but I was too lazy to do anything about it. :P


We'll put the old name away and not mention it, okay? ;)

Wow! That's the "hella sweet babe" (probably Adjunct Lorn?) that was mysteriously absent from my copy of GotM cover, but then I found out she appeared on other covers?

Feel free to play around with it, Effy. The only thing I've ever done with it since Edge made it was to have Wayfriend add the Linden's Army heart for me. :)

Oh, and Av, thanks for posting the link to Edge's website. You're right, there are a whole lot of Watchers represented there who haven't been around in a long while. :(

Even though I knew Edge had that stuff up somewhere, I probably wouldn't have thought of googling it.

Glad you found that! :)

...
Intended just to dust it off, like the thread title demands) Maybe even did it a bit too much, so two variants. And if you'd like something actually changed - can you be more specific? I'm far not eager to act on guessing and make it worse)

Oh, I get it now! When I said "dust off your Edgetars," what I meant was for Watchers who had Edgetars, but hadn't used them in a while, to blow the dust off them and use them again. :)

I have always liked mine the way it is, actually, which is why I've continued to use it. Plus I'm not much of one to swap out that kind of stuff very often. (I don't move the furniture around at home very often, either. ;) ) But thanks! I like the one on the left -- the definition is better.

And, well, you could have expected some people with interest in lame puns thinking "oh, that dust and noise removal in graphic editors")

The one on the left is almost not touched actually - I only sharpened it a bit to make the face features somewhat easier to see, and adjusted the lights a bit to make it look somewhat more vivid.

If you decide to alter it a bit after all, I can try to do something that's at least not for worse, perhaps a bit of animation - maybe a second picture, like on MsMary's av.

I want a lorintar, an Anandatar and an Effaeldemtar??? (okay, an Effytar), please! :D

Feel free to riff on the ussusimiel/melon/squash theme (or whatever else strikes you as appropriate to my Watch persona). Maybe a part of a scene of the Land under a Fertile Sun, if it wasn't too complicated (just don't include any characters from TWL as I try to keep them as I originally imagined them).

And please do not feel under any obligation to come up with something, my humble butternut squash lifted from Wiki or some such place has served me well :lol:

Oh dear, does this mean I only have limited time to get in a whole bunch of pumpkin soup/death to U's brethren jibes?

And yes I know it's the wrong kind of pumpkin. In fact, you might say it's a hatchet job :haha: <-- Savor Dam has been training me in bad puns.
