ENTER the Help! avatar contest

[Hopeful Romantic]

Recapping the last contest...

Your humble contest runner took the Golden Porthos for Favorite Guest Stars with this Soval entry from "Cease Fire"...

...while od0_ital was just edged out for second with this great entry from "Oasis," with the always-cool Rene Auberjonois.

Congrats, and thanks to all the entrants and voters for taking part!


This week, the theme is HELP! That would include anyone needing help, offering help, giving help... You get the idea.

I'll put up the voting poll Monday morning, Pacific time.

To kick things off, I'm pulling out an old favorite for my entry:

Have fun, all!

Note to self: Must remember to get started on this week's entry before I get sidetracked again.

Or, spend a couple minutes working with a basic free image editor to create something now.

I'll bring the drinks

Although this might also qualify too.

If anyone can teach me how to shoot a phase pistol, it's you.

Here's mine. Archer in the exact moment where he's taking off his gloves to help save Hoshi in 'Observer Effect', knowing full well it will probably kill him:

 

[JiNX-01]

Trip to the rescue!

 

[Hoshi's sis]

Here's mine. Archer from North Star helping the settlers.

Rene Auberjonois is always cool!



Alright, goin' with another classic animated av, courtesy of JiNX's help awhile back, its Captain Archer askin' Hoshi for help in 'Broken Bow'.

Eeep, it's Motion Sickness Week at the avatar contest!

Nice avs, though.

 

[JiNX-01]

^ You don't like Bungee Trip?

 

[Count Zero]

Bungee Trip is pretty hypnotic.

Eeep, it's Motion Sickness Week at the avatar contest!

Yeah, I suppose it's moving too quickly.... but it's my first attempt to an animated avatar, do you think I should make it slower?

 

[auntiehill]

^I think it's a lovely av and an excellent choice for the theme, but yeah, you might slow it down a bit. That will also make it a bit more dramatic.

 

[lceb]

^Thanks for the advice!
I hope this is better

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

Great first animated av, iceb! And yes, it's better now that it's slower. I like avs that move slowly enough for me to appreciate the images. I usually set my animated avs at 2 seconds per frame, if I can still get them under 70k. As you mess around with animated avs, you'll find your own comfort zone.

^ You don't like Bungee Trip?

I like Trip. But that av makes me kinda

if I look at it for more than a second or two. It's just me--having motion sickness and vertigo make for some weird reactions to things.

 

[JiNX-01]

I could do something else, I certainly don't want to discourage votes!

Trip helping Archer and A.G. steal the NX-beta

Trip and Malcolm in need of assistance.

Trip in need of help

T'Pol in need of help.

Trip and Malcolm in need of assistance.

I like that one!

Hoshi would do anything for Captain Archer if he asked nicely.

...Me and my dirty mind.

Only if he had a tape of the Klingon language playin' in the background. For Hoshi, that'd be better than Barry White!!!

The only thing better than Barry White is Barry White in the original Klingon.

I'm having a hard time thinking of a good idea for this week. Hopefully I'll come up with something in time.
