[There should be a thread] That lets you show off your avatars so that people can decide who they which user they want to make their avatars or sig... like a gallary...

just a suggestion!

Off to feedback

I've kind of been wondering about this. I'd been closing rating threads lately, since that seemed to be the rest of the staff's stance, but going back and looking over it again the official stance seems to be kind of shakey.

Isn't there an Avatar Service thread anyway?

**Shoeberto** · 08-21-2005, 04:45 AM

No, she's talking about a sig and avatar rating thread.

I think a single thread dedicated to rating them would be okay. It just starts to become a problem when everyone starts making threads to rate their own stuff, which causes the root beer forum to be flooded and drowns out the art, poems, and stories, which are more what the forum is dedicated to.

I do not think they are ever ok.

**Big D** · 08-21-2005, 04:52 AM

The Avatar Service thread is all about helping people to get new avatars... asking for 'ratings' would be a valid use of that thread, I think.

**Lushs** · 08-21-2005, 04:52 AM

yeah...! that's what i mean...
lol i wanna know what people think there should be one big thread of free agent sig/avatar makers, where people can look at everybodies work and decide who they want to make their avatar... i just thought maybe it was a good idea!

**eestlinc** · 08-21-2005, 04:53 AM

that's a good idea, and the avatar service thread is probably the right thread for that.

**Big D** · 08-21-2005, 04:55 AM

Signature service thread

Avatar service thread

**Lushs** · 08-21-2005, 04:55 AM

well... i know there already is a thread similar to that!

but why can't there be a thread like that?
i'd like to know what people think of my work, and what i should change/add... but whatever... i guess no ones really up for this idea! lol oh well....

Hm, maybe the Arts & Writing forum is appropriate for that? Maybe post your avs as artwork and see what people think?

**Lushs** · 08-21-2005, 06:43 AM

BAH! i did... lol but my thread got closed... lol

**Madonna** · 08-21-2005, 06:47 AM

I think the issue could be easily sidestepped by making a thread dedicated to showing off the avatars and signatures (as in multiple ones, if you didn't catch) that you have made and asking for "critiques" instead of "ratings". If it's just to say, "I got a cool sig, whaddaya think?" it won't fly very far.

If you said you made some artwork it probably would have passed. I'll bring this up.

Also, try not to link to images that require a msn sign on to view (the ones in that thread). It's annoying.

EDIT: The problem with rate my sig/av threads is that people change their sigs/avs all the time. There were getting to be a lot of them so we stopped allowing them. If you work on one particular sig very hard and want some feedback on it I don't see a problem with you posting it in the Art Forum if you want some feedback.
