    New avatar which I made

    Gone is the Corgi and here is Greg, a fencer in my club that likes to counterattack with awkward-looking body evasions.

    I took this picture of him and transformed him into this iPodesque looking image.

    I thought it was going to be a lot easier to do than it turned out to be. I was inspired to try it by some shirts I saw from Nationals this year and a wallpaper image someone else posted. His hand was a ***** and I couldn't get the bend in the blade quite right. I had to make the blade much larger for the avatar image before I shrunk it down so that it could be seen at all.
    The solution to your problem is to fence another weapon.

    That's pretty cool, rep is in order.

    I love how it looks iPod-ish!

    That other guy... he's covering target area with his leg... now that takes skill.

    It would be really cool if you did a desktop wallpaper thing. Like get different fencing poses and do the iPod theme!

    A desktop such as that already exists. I'm currently using it and you can view it in the attachement. I didn't make it.

    Kool, Katman....
    Sorry, but you can't believe anything I say. I always lie. In fact, I'm lying now.

    "Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name,..."

    Oh, yes, BTW..."non iligitimi carborundum", look what happened to me.
