Could somebody make me an avatar for forums, YouTube, Twitter and stuff?
I would really appriciate that
I love something with Mr C or just C, like what I have now but that is just from Googel

Thanks!!

Well, I think you have to be a bit more specific than that. What exactly are you looking for? A writing like in your current one but with “Mr C”?

 

[MrCostari]

Yeah, you see my avatar? Just like that, but with Mr C
Preferably a blue background and dark blue/black letters, since I like blue

 

[Demut]

I’ll see what I can whip up when I get home. In the meantime, try to get a bit more specific (i.e. should the letters have a brim)?

 

[MrCostari]

I'm totally not creative, do whatever you want, a nice font is nice, decorate whatever, after you done show me, I give it a high chance I will like it :0
Just blue/black colors and a nice font is alright for me

Thanks much!

 

[Demut]

Okay, two more things:
1) Background. White (or at least very bright)?
2) The abbreviated “Mister” with a period or without one (i.e. “Mr” or “Mr.”)?

 

[MrCostari]

Background preferably not white, maybe light or dark blue.
No Mr is just fine without "" or . or w/e

 

[Demut]

Okay, so here’s a prototype:

Give me some feedback and we’ll tweak it until it resembles what you want. I’ve got some ideas (like overlapping the “Mr” and the “C”) that we could try out as well.

 

[MrCostari]

Wow it's beautiful!
But can I use this as an avatar? Or are you testing it? I like it!
What about the letters sideways? Not under-above but sideways?
What do you think? The font is great and the background to!

 

[Demut]

Sure, I can try that once I get back home. You mean like
________
|_MR_C_|

instead of
_____
| MR |
|_C__|

correct?

 

[MrCostari]

Sorry for the late response.
I actually meant diagonal
I think that fits better for an avatar than horizontal, that is more likely for a signature I quess.
And I don't really like vertical.

Thanks!

 

[Demut]

Sorry for the late response.

Ditto

Regarding the diagonal arrangement, how about this? Is that what you had in mind?

Oh and we should arrange a “meeting” of sorts at a time where both of us can be online for around half an hour or so where we’ll go in a chatroom and I can adjust the image to your wishes in real-time instead of this slow back and forth with a day or more between each reply

 

[MrCostari]

Yeah indeed that sounds fine, if you have MSN, I will PM you my MSN
And there is only 1 thing I would like to see and that is:
I actualy don't like diagonal, so what about:
MR
C
In the middle?
And maybe a dot after R, so MR.
C
And maybe the MR a little smaller and C some bigger.
What do you think?
Other it looks like MRC (like a short reference) and MR. C would look like more like my name
If you get what I mean.

Thanks much it looks awesome so far!
Maybe a border would be cool too?

 

[Demut]

A border? Around what? The whole image? Also: See? Told you so (regarding the period after “Mr.”) xD

Now then:

 

[MrCostari]

AWESOME
I only would like a black border then I'm HAPPY

 

[Demut]

Sure, I’ll hopefully get to it this evening.

As for the black, any specific tone you have in mind? Or simply pure, darkest black?

I'm not very creative, but I think you can

 

[Demut]

The thing with pure black is that it looks rather ... ugly on a monitor when used like that. Well, we’ll see what I come up with.

 

[MrCostari]

Hmm yeah not black then I quess, maybe some other color blue?

 

[Demut]

Dark blue?
