Black & White avatar week is here again!

Come, gather 'round children; it's story time. (over to you mimic)
IIRC Goji had his grayscale Village of the Damned avatar and I also had a black & white avatar (a Young Frankenstein one, I think) and we were posting after each other in some thread. The conversation turned to the fact that the avatars were all grayscale, and Flukie noticed and started the first ever black & white avatar week thread.

Hmmmmm, sure it is a beginning, but we'll need to dress it up a bit...

Maybe begin it something like this:

It was the night before the month of christmas, all was quiet on the board, not a creature was stirring, not even a bot...
 
No no no...

It was the month before christmas, and all through this lot, not a creature was stirring, not even a bot..
 
I have no idea where most TBBS traditions came from, but thank you for your role in this one. :techman:

^Indeed, we need one of the three wise 'men' to tell us the tale of the first B/W avatar event (It'll have to be you, mimic, as the other two are temporarily missing).

Another av up before the official start of the initial B&W avatar week* was this one:

* (Wasn't it actually a month, to begin with? I'm sure it ran longer than a week.)

It was (iirc) only a week-end at first, but due to high interest in the event it was expanded so also those who only post from work could take part in it.



My B/W avatar today requires no introduction, Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: Die Marlene!
 
Just got my black-and-white avatar again. :)

Ensign Hirhul Mendral from Sigils and Unions: Catacombs of Oralius, all dressed to attend a Christmas service with his friend, AU Sam Lavelle.

(In my fanfic, Mendral is the Cardassian helmsman in "Parallels.")
 
Oh hey, I was planning on switching my av to the black-and-white one anyway. W00T!!

Bonus: I look really old-timey in this.
 
Oh good, I got credit this year. Now I just have to wait for the royalty checks to start pouring in.

My old avatar is up for old times' sake.
