Well folks, my old avatar was getting dated.  I may go back to it (had it since 2001 IIRC...or maybe 2002?), but going to try out at least something different.

What do you all think?

Better?    worse?  Who gives a flying fling?

eh..we'll see what happens. I'm already missing the old one.

Why is this in the AH forum instead of the O'Club you say?  Why...I'm one of the old boys, didn't y'all hear?:D

cheers, and let me know what ya think please!

The shine off the nose of the chopper looks blurry...if it were that "ZING! Your eye's gone!" kinda shine, it'd be more interesting. But seriously, that makes me sound like the snob drooling in the gallery of the museum. Do what you like, not what we care about.

Oh, and girls always make good avatars. I forget who has the girl in the short black dress leaning way over a car. That there's a keeper. :D

I dunno if this new avatar is going to work.

My old one was actually designed from 421SQN's original nose art (which my old XO...back in the day....artfully and lovingly adapted). It has a sentimental value which can't be explained.

Eh......I'll give it a whirl anyway for a few days. But I kinda feel outta my skin at the moment.

weird huh?

Well if its bugs & bears it has to be alaska!

Hmmm RTR put a couple of mini-guns on it and maybe it would do.
Nice chopper, just seems to be lacking something.  :)
