What's better than a Custom Avatar Day? A Custom Avatar Weekend! In honor of Prime & P_A's birthdays, from Friday, October 3rd, 9PM PDT to Sunday, October 5th 9PM PDT, members will be able to upload a custom avatar.

New members may be unable to upload an avatar, as well as members who have misused the custom avatar privilege previously or who have 30 or more infraction points from the last 6 months, and all avatars must follow the requirements in this FAQ entry.


Avatars must be obviously Pokemon-themed, and may not have any writing (the only exceptions are your exact screen name or a Pokemon logo) nor photographs of people in them.
Avatars should also look good, not be distracting, and not have fast animations.

The maximum size of custom avatars has also been changed to 100 by 100 pixels or 24.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

Staff will not confirm that your avatar meets the requirements ahead of time.

There will be another avatar contest, winners will be decided by the members this time. Anyone who uploads their own new custom avatar will be eligible, as long as that avatar meets the requirements.

To vote on which avatar you think should win the contest, rate one and only one avatar with a 5 in the gallery. Sock puppets used in the contest votes will be banned and those votes invalidated, rating multiple avatars will invalidate all votes for that member, PMing bulbasnore to fix it when you rate multiple avatars will be a 7 day ban (no infraction) :tongue:.

Wow, that'll be fun! New and bigger avatars!
Thanks for the update Lucario ex!

By the way, happy birthday P_A and Prime! :thumb:
 
If you received the infraction in the past six months but it has expired does it still count? I won't be allowed to upload one anyway though.
 
Awesome!! Happy pre-early Bday, P_A and Prime!!
"New members may be unable to upload an avatar..."
How 'old' do you have to be to qualify?
