Of course!




I like the fact, RGV, that you have used the new avatar.... because in avatar size the 'stang "lapel pin/button" is subdued, merely hinted at -

Image


Whereas, in the full size, not only is the placement not correct, the edges are too clear. It looks like I just put it there, which I didn't. I mean, I did put it there, but I put it there while making a mistake (I won't go into it) then did all of the work to make it look okay... then resized it, only to realize the one mistake I had made earlier then deiced, what the heck and made it avatar size. I am, probably, too [deleted] my work... but here's the larger version --

Image






To note -- in terms of the authenticity it (the Mustang) should be more over the "E". Though, Obama's button appears level and flat, perhaps the mustang should have had some tilt to it. But that's debatable due to the final point (wait for it). The placement of the stang just doesn't look natural on his collar, but... Most of all, the mustang looks way too darned sharp compared to the rest of it all. (As in, it might not have needed tilt if it looked to have fit in in the first place.)

But avatar-wise, I think it does the job effectively and unobtrusively.





Nice avatar RGV. ;)












EDIT: And I should note RGV, my friend... I would have never brought up the fact that I did the work, nor all of these different steps had you not brought it up first. It was fun. And though I have been the first to comment on other avatars of yours I had a hand in (and both of them took me no time at all, hence my deciding to comment humorously) I decided not to post at all about this one. I thought the idea was too good, and I didn't want to give the impression of taking credit, for what, again, I thought was a great idea on your part.

Wrong man. To quote raplh the Wall Street typhoon, hope is free. Only expectations are to be avoided.

HB..... you're back! I thought the ghosts of your misspent youth had claimed you to gain some sort of penance. Good to see you!
