Hi @E-star, for Feb could I nominate @stocktoad, his adorable little bunnies put a smile on my face this morning. Thanks! :D
E-Star@e-star@karen68 they are indeed adorable, thanks for popping in! I have added @stocktoad ‘s avy. Thanks @stocktoad for putting it back on ;)
Kathy@kathy@E-star My February nomination is @fleshyskeleton I’m not quite sure but it seems a picture of Civil War days Historic and Patriotic which as you all know mean a lot to me:)
E-Star@e-star@kathy great to see you pop in, I have added @fleshyskeleton’s avy to the list of nominees. I searched Google and it is mentioned in a list of the strangest weapons of WWI, it’s a slingshot! Here is a bigger image.
Kathy@kathyThanks @e- Star for the larger image and the info! very interesting avatar @fleshyskeleton :)
Fleshyskeleton@fleshyskeleton@e-star @kathy and whoever’s in charge of the contest:
Thanks for the nomination,I’m pleasantly surprised you find the picture interesting as well.
The soldiers depicted in the avatar are French,with a text saying”grenadier drills” beneath in French.I never accepted all the stuff Americans kept forwarding about “surrender”.The French are valiant and well armed,they just suffer from inferior tactics(eg.unable to cope with VC’s ambushes)
And after all,a slingshot for firing grenades,though peculiar,do have an advantage over throwing,as the PLA always did(no grenade launchers).
I find others’ avatars far more pleasant myself,more importantly,they are colorful and well-designed.And I wonder if there are fan art sites from which to obtain the pictures,or you designed them yourselves,like @sal-9 ?Kathy@kathy@fleshyskeleton your very welcome for the nomination! E-Star is in charge of the contest.i found your avatar interesting and now you shed some light on the history of it I’m sure to look into it more in depth! I’m pretty sure there is fan art somewhere around the nest m @E-star designed my avatar and many others as does @sal9.
also I’ve gotten a few from Google images by downloading the pic then upload to gravatar.HunnyBunny@hunnybunnyMy February nomination goes to @swanz for the cute origami swan. I was tempted by @stocktoad’s Valentine bunnies, but I got pipped at the post (no pun intended)
swansaredead@swanzThank you !;-)
HunnyBunny@hunnybunnyAh @swanz I love this avatar contest, and nominate one every month. May I encourage you to do the same. If you look around you just see something that takes your eye…..
swansaredead@swanzIn House of cards also a origami swan .;-)
E-Star@e-star@hunnybunny great to see you pop in and show us another great avatar! I have added @swanz avatar to the nominees list.
@swanz, I hope you will take up @hunnybunny’s invitation (thanks btw Hunnybunny) and nominate a fellow nester’s avatar. It is always a pleasure to see avatars that otherwise would be overlooked.Stocktoad@stocktoadThanks for considering my bunnies @hunnybunny but @karen68 already nominated them, so it was good to get @swanz in there.
HunnyBunny@hunnybunny@stocktoad Cupid shot by his own arrow? That’s a novel avatar. Tomorrow no one will know what the heck I’m talking about, when your avatar changes yet again.
Stocktoad@stocktoadYes, @hunnybunny I usually try to keep it G rated, but I couldn’t resist this one. I can tell you that I did get some positive feedback from it……
Stocktoad@stocktoadOh…. @hunnybunny and I did think about photo shopping in a pool of blood, but I resisted…..
Kathy@kathyo.k @hunnybunny @stocktoad you got me…i must see the Cupid avatar!!?
