ENTER! TV/Media Av Contest: Love Is In The Air

[auntiehill]

This week's contest is all about love and romance, your favorite couples, romantic films, TV shows, or novels.

It's all about love, baby.


To make it just a little bit more challenging, there will be NO SCIENCE FICTION OR FANTASY. Standard BBS av rules apply (150 pixels max, 140 KB max). Please do not post avs you don't intend to enter. The poll will go up either late Thursday or early Friday.

To get us started, here's mine, my favorite romantic movie:

 

[Timelord79 (he/him)]

I would pick Veronica Mars with Logan Echolls, but considering how marshmallow unfriendly the last one went I am going the obvious route this time. XD

 

[auntiehill]

^When in doubt, go with the classics.

 

[Greylock Crescent]

I made two avatars ... but I'm so conflicted over which to choose that I'll have to give it some time before I decide. Good ones so far, though!

 

[Avro Arrow]

- Kate Beckett & Richard Castle, Castle

 

[Aragorn]

 

[Starkers]

Well if sci-fi had been an option I'd have probably gone with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but as not...I'll have to go with Bridget.

[auntiehill]

Great entries so far, gang.

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Dude, right movie, wrong couple.

 

[Timewalker]

Elizabeth I and Robert Dudley

 

[Saga]

500 Days of Summer

 

[Gov Kodos]

Darcy and Elizabeth

 

[Shik]

When in doubt, go with the classics.

I agree wholeheartedly:

​

 

[auntiehill]

Aww!

 

[Shik]

Considering how much they HATED each other...

 

[Zulu Romeo]

 

[Timelord79 (he/him)]

I almost went for this one before settling on Romeo & Juliet.

Great avatars!

I thought about entering one myself, but I'm having trouble with photoshop (old CS3 version). I took a screenshot from a tv-series (1440 x 810 px). After that I reduced its size to 150 x 84 pixel, but the image gets totally pixelated and blurry. How do you all reduce the size of your pictures?

These days I usually use Snipping Tool Plus. Let's me take a partial screenshot already of the right size or ratio and has an easy edit menu.
