You know, the little blank guy on the left? Why can't we make something within a certain dimension limit?

Or can we? I can't figure out how, and I'm not exactly new to the internet. lol

push!

I think the devs are waiting until we can make avatars for our pilots in-game, and then our avatars here will match those. I will just need to be able to d/l a large version of my character's avatar so I can put it on any MechWarrior Service Record or forum for our unit. Large images offer better resolution at smaller sizes, as long as they're not more than 300% of the size I would need to go to.

That..... makes sense. I hope they have lots of appearance customization options.

[Threat Doc]

As do I. I really enjoy making avatars; to-date, Champions on-line is the game with the best customization I have ever seen. As long as I can customize my characters bust (head and shoulders), I'm good.

I just want the OA sunburst. What about those of us that don't want Avatars....

[Thorn Hallis]

Then make your pilot have the sunburst tatooted on his forehead.

Just saw this thread. I'm a Champs Online player myself Kay, just reactivated last week. Night Owl @Skulldugger if you want to hook up against some comic book bad guys sometime.

[Threat Doc]

Actually, I'm afraid the only playing I'll be doing with Champions Online, again, will be to build characters. In truth, I only have a few characters there, and I haven't actually played any of them in something like 170 days or so. Sorry, but the interest went out quite a while back. Oh, and attempting to export characters, even taking screenshots and putting them into bitmap files doesn't work for my purposes.

?Kay you mean by Avatar, something more human sized like an Elemental

[Threat Doc]

Yes. I use the fantastic character construction system to build new characters. I'm sure there are giant robots you can play in the game, if you purchase the right power enhancers, but they're not 'Mechs, so I really can't design anything other than Human sized.

This is probably what they're going to do now that I think about it, but it'd be great to at least have Gravatar support until then.

Believe it or not Kay using the Champions online customized hero option I combined a Power Armor/Gadgeteer hero and tricked it out into a pretty convincing looking BLACK KNIGHT mod. Primary weapons look remarkably like a large pulse laser with a pair of Guass Rifles for added punch. Working up to having a pair of Munibot pets that pass pretty well for modified Enforcers with RAC-5s and STreak SRMs.

Thats how you know you have too much Mech on the brain, all your avatars in other games end up looking like battlemechs lol.

[Threat Doc]

LOL... too much 'Mech on the brain, you bet. For my part, I'm just looking for a guy in AUs new uniform, and I had hoped that Champions might help me with that. Perhaps I've just not spent enough time on it, yet.
