Maybe Erik can properly capture this character for me, something which I've failed to do for the past many a year. I'll share her story and how I came up with her in the future.

Hopefully when they get your avatar up and running.

Absolutely :P I love hidden meanings and double entredes. Very fun to hide layers of hidden references or meanings under something.

From your description it almost sounds like you should ask for a Muse.

Avatar-wise I am thinking of a close up of the ranger's face. She is holding a longsword in front of herself with the blade downward (think kneeling knight position). The hilt will be kiwis with the long beaks crossing back over the blade steel as decorative work.

Then again, by the time it's time to make mine it might be something else entirely, just my current thought.

Woohoo they got my avatar uploaded!

I'm a huge fan of the Dark Tower series by Stephen King and the guys at GGG did an amazing job with such a small amount of room to work.

Blunt, succint, poignant
Masterfully said.

super love this thread. some of the avatars are super duper and i'd love to have me one one day. ah well.

in the meanwhile, now that some of the diamond uniques are out... was hoping some of the diamonds whose uniques are out could come let us know how they came about dreaming it up? stuff like shavronne's wrappings and alpha's howl and aegis aurora seem so obvious to us now that they're out, and yet it required your input, creativity and financial support to make real. i know the link below shows which uniques come from which supporters... i'd love to hear the background from you guys! :)

It would be nice to hear more stories.

I just really like rabbits, and I adore the diamond kiwi, so I decided to get a diamond rabbit for an avatar.
