One of the many things I like about this BBS are the great avatars.
I have changed mine over a dozen times since I joined.
A few months ago there were several fun free give-a-way threads.
I think it is time for another one.
This is a contest for the best new avatar.
The prize is the special issue PORSCHE license plate pictured below.
The Rules
Contest will end on September 14, 2003 at 9:14 am pst. (9-14, 9:14)
All entries must be posted to this thread.
Current of previously used images are not allowed.
Support or bashing of the competition is encouraged.
Bribery and sucking up to the judge is allowed.
All decissions of the contest promoter are final.

Well Bruce - You are winning in the contest so far.
I can't promise you will be able to stay in the top position.
I think this is the first time you changed your avatar in 6 months.
That fish was probably starting to stink a little.
Do you change your skivvies more often?

I copied mine from Marc-André and he copied his from speednation.
I just photoshoped it a little to resemble my 914

I was thinking about changing it for awhile now.
That fish I let go. So unless it has been caught again, it should smell fine.
Of course I change my skivies....every Friday (bath night)

VegasRacer,
Looks like it doesn't necessarily have to have 914 content. Are you partial to P-content, or are we just going for most creative?

MarkV - I'll tell you what I told Andyrew ...... see Rule #3.
"Current of previously used images are not allowed."
This is a
BEST NEW AVATAR CONTEST.Jenny - P content is not 'required'. (It wouldn't hurt and this IS the 914 club)
I am partial to T & A. (But that does not necessarily make the best avatar)
Creativity - Originality - Humor - WOW factor - Craftsmanship - all count.
If there are enough entries, I will have awards for both .jpg and .gif's.
And now a commercial from our sponsor - me - VegasRacer.

Mark wins, look at that cute little thing. Our mascot.. when are we going to start taking turns keeping him?
I'm not playing the avatar game, this new one is a picture of me on vacation last month.
I am a little upset that I used my sheep leaping wolf, my Larry King monkey, and Jesus being interrupted by a telemarketer avatars already.
The one below this post is disturbing.. I want a chopper, but.. heh.

Sure, that would work. Whatever your avatar is on 9-14 at 9:14 is your entry. I have high expectations from you. Don't blame me 'cause you created such a good one already.
acox914 Maybe one of the
geeks experts will let us know the max size in kb's.

If you want to play by the rules you would need more than one membership account to enter more than one avatar. Some contestants have chosen to attach images instead of changing their avatar. Others have decided to try to take this thread to the dark side with complete disregard all that is pure and innocent in this world. Why does this not surprise or disappoint me? ROTFLMAO
My best advice is
GO FOR IT ! May the best one win.
On 9-14 I will select to top entries and start a new poll so a jury of your peers can vote for the winner. This way I can avoid the wrath of the sore losers.
The prize will remain the same.
