I was going to tell Maxwell-FBI that MyTatuo didn't design them...or at least, not most of them, so he should not be telling MyTatuo "great job." True, currently the first 17 were designed by me, the next two (Hinkley Homies and Hathaway Habitue) are Lauren's, the rest are billswoman's. But, Maxwell - FBI is also known for making a general good job comments, and I've read it as such.

I've learned if I take things too literally, I'll hit my head across the top of the doorjam to a battleship. Besides that, I still have the other three kids and the new Maxwell one to design. Then, I'll probably take a break from them for a while unless if I get a request. I've got one from Ms B, but she's got to get me the pic for it, as I can't cut out pics well with my program. It'll be cool as far as the design she has in mind. Only thing is, now I wish I had renamed my avatars. I've got silly names for them, i.e. "newsuitemblem" for my current one. Oh well, now that I know, I'll put better ones for them.

What is your idea for Cyler?

What is your idea for Cyler? Keyboard, originally a yellow to blue shade, but might change that to gold to black. Might try your idea of dumbbells as well. Rhonda's was a microphone pink to black shade (might now use keyboard), and Paco a wrench tan to black, but that color scheme will change slightly, maybe to grey or something. Don't know yet.

I think the weights would suit him better...only a couple of episodes focused on the band element, but he was buff the entire series.

I do know what barbells look like (and not just the cartoon ones either. ) Probably have them done by the end of the week, as I'm taking it a bit easy after the state primaries today.

So, you think I might use a shoe for Paco as well? Probably one of the things he's best known for in the show. If not, maybe the old wrench will work. (That is, unless it throws a spanner in the works. )

I don't know what you would use effectively for Paco. The shoe was a great effort on his part, but the rest of the episodes have little things for him too. I don't know what you should do for him.

Well, right now it's the two I've got down (wrench, shoe). If it wouldn't be a duplicate, I'd do the wheel... but, then again, I could draw a hubcap only to go with the wrench. There were several references to him popping off hubcaps first season.

True, but that is also true for Tony and the rest of the class. Maybe a book on grammar since he has that first season line about ain't speaking bad English no more, you know. I don't know what you could do. The wrench and shoe, while they designate him, don't really have him stand out. How about the bow tie?

Book would too, but I usually use some sort of weird font for it to avoid problems, so it'd be more confusing than when I post after walking into a glass door. Think I'll try that one, after these other scenarios I have to work out, such as dealing with the state elections.

Nice job on Rhonda, but does she play the keyboard? Also, Cyler and Paco's don't seem to match them, but I think the icons are well done. Finally, what about Carlisle? He is there quite a bit too you know. I was thinking maybe a pit bull for him.

He is there quite a bit too you know. I was thinking maybe a pit bull for him. Honestly, I tried drawing the microphone, but it kept looking dumb, so I decided the keyboard. She also composed a song "Wings of Love," so you could assume that she has some piano experience. You say that Cyler's doesn't match him, but you suggested barbell. I'm confused. Paco's is just simply hard to figure out, so I went by a noticible piece of clothing other than the shoe. Carlisle, I might draw one, but only if there's enough interest. But if I do, it ain't going to be a pit bull. Maybe a manila folder if I do draw it.

I think Cyler with weights is a good idea, but it doesn't quite look like a set of weights...maybe you should add more weights to it to make it look heavier? It sort of looks like those silly putty weights on cartoons. Paco's is a hard one, I would agree...I just don't think people would see it like that...like it was off a tux. Maybe you should watch the CLASSICAL GAS episode and see how that one was and draw it. No pit bull? You are so boring. No dunce hat for Tony either...geez.

Paco's tie looks fake (pre-tied), that's why I drew it as such. Only thing I could add to it is the straps that secure it. Cylers, I can redraw the weights, but overall it looks good in my opinion. I might add a darker shadow than I did on them to make them thicker and heavier. I can't draw a pit bull. The dogs I can draw are mostly circles in the face. It'd look more like a bassett hound than anything when I'm done. (and, I was not going to use a dunce cap for Tony, at all. ) (You know, I might challenge you to draw a couple of avatars here at the rate this is going. )

I don't have the programs to do it. Surely you have Windows Paint. You can look at your program list and it might be in there as well. I have Win XP, and it has Art Studio, which is what I use in my avatars.

Sorry. I only got the Internet and Office installed on mine...I don't even have PowerPoint. It was a Dell Small Business Special that I managed to cash in on. Besides, I hate art in that sense.
