Contest: ENTER TV & Media Av Contest: OK, Cool.

[auntiehill]

What is your definition of "cool?" Is it style, class, dignity, a sense of self that is impervious to influence? However you define it, the "cool factor" is a big part of what attracts us to musicians and actors in the public eye. Who is your icon of "cool?" Enter up to two avatars of your favorite actors & actresses and/or musicians (images NOT from Scifi/fantasy please) that represent your idea of COOL.

Standard av rules apply: 200 x 200 pixels max, 1 MB max. All entries must be work/Google safe.

I'll put the poll up on Tuesday, the 9th, or thereabouts.

Here's mine:

David Bowie

Cary Grant

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Well, my choices will surprise nobody.

#1

Winona

#2

That Kevin Smith

 

[cardinal biggles]

Steve McQueen in Bullitt. Doesn't get much cooler than that.

 

[auntiehill]

@cardinal biggles : very cool indeed!

 

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

^^ The car..... also very cool!

 

[auntiehill]

Except the car isn't an actor or musician. Still time to enter! James Dean, young Marlon Brando, Miles Davis, Audrey Hepburn--whoever fits your definition.

[cardinal biggles]

I can't enter this one since it's a character rather than an actor, but I'ma share it with the group anyway.



(Also, I'm slightly proud of myself; basic as it is, I had to re-teach myself how to make animated GIFs in Photoshop. I'm impressed that it works at all.)

Very nice ! It's fun making avs, isn't it?

I used to make them somewhat frequently back in the day, but with the switch to XenForo I stopped. Not as much fun making animated avatars if they won't display that way in your posts.
