Due to a strange bug occurring on the original avatar thread, I’m setting up a new one, with bs angel’s permission.
Same rules apply. If you didn’t see the old thread or have just forgotten, the original OP is below.
> We will be adding more avatars when we launch our official forums, and the best way to make sure we have something you like is to make something! So, if you feel so inclined, create an avatar, and link it in this thread. We’ll then choose some of your images to be added to the official list.

> Should be 100 x 100 (don’t know the final avatar size, but we’ll scale it to fit)

Heres a link to the original thread if you want to look at what people have already posted. USE AT OWN RISK. As mentioned above, the thread has had a bug that causes the forums to freeze if you attempt to view the tenth/final page. It is recommended that you avoid that page for now.
that’s weird how the orignal thread aside from pg1 wont load; this doesnt look good for having new avatars available anytime soon
PS: eben gibon king you need to put your images in some sort of album, clicking on a bunch of links is alot more troublesome than just looking at a bunch at once- especially given how many you make

Yeah I know. I’ve been using imgur because it’s free, I don’t need an account and I can resize images easily enough. I tried using albums once but it didn’t turn out too well.

So we can’t digitally manipulate, say a Reach screenshot?

So far as I can tell it must either be a screenshot with no modification outside of the game or official artwork. You can give it a go, a number of people submitted fan made art in the old thread.

I’m not sure if that’s necessarily the case. Obviously we are allowed to crop the images, so I would expect that small alterations of a similar nature (i.e. contrast tweaks, or specialized blurs to kill Reach’s annoying film grain) would also be permitted.
These are resized versions of ones that others posted in the thread.
PLEASE NOTE: I did not resize some of the suggestions because either I was not sure if they were official (owned by 343 and Microsoft) or I know they wee already posted in the original thread.
