new avatar; nicer?
« on: May 05, 2011, 07:53:18 AM »
At the Mandriva Linux website, I still have the "mandriva penguin" avatar. Part of why I like it, it's blue. Part of the reason I don't use it anymore, I am using my iMac, and barely touch Mandriva.

I come here and see a black and red avatar that I created. Neat in one way, a bit dark and not that clean looking.

I like clean. I like blue (I know, green can be clean and it rhymes, I just like blue)

I'm curious as to whether or not this looks better. I like it better so far. It's my color :)

Well it's very...blue.

 :-\

It's nice, I suppose. I guess it's just the first avatar I've ever seen that includes only a background.

But it's nice, I'm not saying I don't like it. ;)

I know what you mean. It probably does need something in the center, or just something. but I don't know yet.

edit: I'm almost thinking of a Descent sphere that is black. I'll find something.

I like the shades of blue in that avatar, but I need something in the background, so for now, I brought back the Mandriva logo.

Personally I thought the Vanguard one was kinda neat, even if it did tend to disappear on this black.

I have the default theme, so I have a white background. I saved that avatar at home. and I think it's in another forum.
