Yep, it's a first, 90 x 90 avatars will be allowed in an avatar comp! Of course it is relatively unfair as the avatars are smaller than supporting member ones, but, if you do win or finish in the top 5 with a 90 x 90 avatar you know you are one hell of an avatar maker. :)

I decided I would go with a not-so-original theme: Italian supercars. Submit your entry before November 25, 9 PM (GMT -5).

Oh, and on a side note Wouter please bump up the avatar size limit. 97.7 kb isn't enough. 250-500 kb with an option to turn off animation for non-broadband users would be epic.

Hey... How can I get an avatar larger than my current 90x90???

whiteballz
11-19-2008, 04:07 AM
Pay the good man wouter some money via the http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/forum/payments.php page.

It also gives you access to a lovely special extra forum and gets rid of the pesky ads.

How could I start a thread???

Head to the sub forum you wish to start the topic under, (general, miscelanious, multimedia etc) then once your there you can click "new thread" from there its just like posting :)

I had a soft spot for that game.

Maybe because it's the last real NFS game. Albeit a bit short on content.

i was going to make a 90^2, but i decided to just use one that i had already made. hard to decide if this is actually a supercar, but it has a prancing horse on it, so i figured it woudl be acceptable. David, I'll let you be the judge.
