^ I agree with polka_dot: we should put like a tag at the beginning of the post, saying i.e. "Contest #1 - Theme: Black & White" or anything like that. It would not only help us searching the avs once the thread will have become bigger, but it would also be useful to separate the "them-avys" from the random or improvised ones (as I think I understood that from now on this will be the thread for those also).
^ I'm not sure about the 80x80; it's true, as mangostyle said, that generally avys look better as 160x80. I think it may depend also on that the human sight is a bit "widescreen-like", so anything of the same ratio kinda looks more natural to our eyes (maybe Long John Silver would like 80x80 better...); but I'm not sure about having a certain amount of them to be included by rule; we could get to see less gorgeous avys beacause of that rule, maybe we can go on posting them as 160x80 or 80x80 as we like, and then if somebody comes and ask "could you turn that in a small avy?", we can provide. What do you all think?
p.s. GORGEOUS avys, everybody!!! With such great competition, I just can't choose which avys to post!
Hmm yes I think its an good idea!
But mayb still one problem , its a fact that at most times 160x80 looks better and mayb the judgement would choose (not on perpess) rather for the larger avatar because you see more of the sphere?
I really like this idea, there have already been so many great entries. I'm a bit of a novice in the avatar making department, but this is great for the artist in me. Having a set theme to work to is great, kind of like having homework again!

Errr...I'n not sure anymore that this is the place for random and/or out-of-theme avys... it sems that those still belong to the old thread...

Took me ages to decide, but finally here's my selection:

I'n not sure about the 80x80...is it a rule to include 6 of them in the 15 for the "contest", or it isnt'?
Well, if it IS a rule, then just ignore my last 6 and substitute them with these ones, made from the same pics:

I especially love the 3rd, 5th, 7th and 10th
