Might be a little early, but as a Valentine's day gift to the community, I will make avatars for the first five people to post in this thread stating that they would like me to make one for them. :) The avatars will be made using vector software. (If you don't know what that is, something like a painting would be in a raster format, like a PNG file, whereas vector cannot do that, but has lossless quality if you zoom in.) I will export the images to PNG files and give a direct Imgur link to them, but let me know in your post if you want me to instead link to a .zip file containing the original (Inkscape) SVG file as well.

Be sure to tell me in your post what you want the avatar to look like! If you have no ideas, maybe a marble with a certain design?
If you already have an avatar you are happy with, or rarely post on forums, I do not recommend you ask me to make one for you.
If I make one for you and you don't like it, I'm completely fine with you not using it. I'll do my best, but no promises it will be exactly as you want it.

I'd like one please.
Do I have to actually use it or can I just request it?

I want one!

I want 'INATG' in any font on top of any marble's design picture.
I mean that flat pic, not the actual marble.

One spot left! Even if you miss the chance, I might do this again.

What do you mean exactly? You want an Asian version of your current avatar?

You don't have to use it, but what else are you gonna do with it? :P I also need to know what you want it to be.

[strike]I want a texture(s) of Jeff's face that can be used for Marble Blast custom levels! :D[/strike]

I'd love for you to make an avatar for me... The avatar goes like this:
*There is a capital "L" written in cursive at the center of the avatar. It's color is neon blue.
*Background is black, with small "hitmarkers" as "snowflakes" :3

Here ya go, if anything is wrong, I should be able to fix it with no problem as this is a very simple graphic.

I need replies to post six from NF and Lee. I have an idea for NatureFreak's, which is a tree shape with the letters "NF" merged into the trunk. I could put that on a marble on a grass texture I made for the ground.

Neat! That looks so cool!
So is that also technically a marble skin that I could use? Could it be more green than teal?

I updated the image to have a greener marble, see post eleven. I think it still has some cyan due to a mostly transparent gradient I added as reflection.
It wasn't an actual marble skin, but I've made one here:

It gets warped a little in-game, but that can't be avoided.

Could you make an INATG marble skin also? That would be great because I'm starting to make videos!

At this point, I might as well make a graphics thread and take requests. :side:

Copy "ball-superball.dts" in "platinum/data/custom_marbles/" to wherever in custom_marbles you put the marble skin in. If you put it in the custom folder or the custom_marbles folder, no need to copy the .dts file. You should also rename the skin to something like "INATG's Marble.marble" (with .png on the end if your file browser is showing file extensions). The ".marble" at the end is important.

Actually, scrap that.
Make a cross (+) on the marble (If you still don't know, see Dushine's marble in MBG WRRs), and make the background whatever colour you want. Then add some special bling blings on it. (You can skip this if you want)

Sorry for the late reply. :P

Not sure what you mean by "bling blings", but here you go:

And a marble skin in case you wanted it:

Awesome skins, I would love to see your approach on mine so I'm offering you a fair deal. I make a custom DTS marble shape for you per your design request and you do one marble skin for me. ;)
If you''re interested in this sortof ''trade'' ill give you some design directions if you can't come up with anything right away:
1.Must include letters RDs (no ''empire'' necessary)
2.My original idea was crown on top of ''s'' but if you can come up with something else :
3.Must include darkish green colour (my username color gives good direction).
4. totally optional but if letters would have philsempire marble letter theme that would rock.

You can also just go your own way and design however you want it and surprise me, anything works here.

Just as proof of concept of what I can do. And that's just start of that....

It's a custom model and currently i don't have any plans on releasing it to public unfortunately, but you may see it on some future projects of mine.

Sounds pretty cool, if I make a graphics thread, I think it would be great! Thanks for the offer. Even if I do make a graphics thread, I'm not sure if I'll do a lot of marble skins.

You mean font? If so, can you give me the name? If not, do you have an example?


Xedron, I'll try to get your avatar done tomorrow, as I'm a little tied up at the moment. Sorry!

I think you misunderstood. I will make a marble skin for YOU in whatever shape or form you wan't.
As for 4th point, i was regarding font, you can just take any format that looks old and ''royal'''.

Xedron:

I found a pattern that Inkscape generated and thought it looked really cool, so I put it on the marble (there's no way I'll be able to make that an actual skin though). I also added a slight reflection of the text.
I should have gotten yours done first since you asked first, sorry about that. :unsure:
