KBK, I've shrunk it down to 19.9Kb ready for use as an avatar.
Obviously some sacrifices were made but I think that the overall effect remains intact.
The last 'death' frame is shown for 9 seconds. I think it looks better when looped like this but I could make it shorter if necessary.
I also added a 'blink' at the start to get as close to 20Kb as possible.
Hope you like it!! And yes, I should get out a bit more. 🙂

Beautiful. Thanks!..now..ain't that just so darned perfect? I dunno about you, but it tickles my funnybone...
Re: What are your avatar´s
Well, Tekko
my new avatar should be familiar to you
you have seen it many times
This is from my Macro sessions with my Nikon Coolpix camera.
These Nikon digital are know for good macro quality.
Uses Nikkor lenses.
This is one reason I bought this model
- be able to picture very small electronic details - like transistors etc.
My attachment is a large size of my avatar.
But still, this 480x520 is a just small copy of the original picture!
My original is 3072x2304 pixels and 3.16 MByte.
Beside this little coin is a match, for size compare.

mine is a glass electrode attached to the cell body (soma) of a neuron.
the opening of the electrode is 2-3 microns.

Love the horns, Shawn!
That's a great shot. Like you could sell it to an image bank, good. Iconic.

Very good animation, Sonusthree 😀
... and I know who this poster is!!!
... I have been adressed by his posts, many a times

He is now on Ignore! But of course he is.
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
🙂
cowanrg told us about his avatar in Post #2.
It is a very robust amplifier - that 'looks heavy power'.
... "a pass labs clone case ive been working on forever"
This is cowanrg current avatar
Using cowanrg linked bigger picture of this amplifier
I made this new avatar for cowanrg.
It does this beast of an amplifier more justice, I think 🙂
See my attachment for this Pass Labs Clone avatar.
It is 75x60 pixels. (max 75x75 allowed)

If you have a link to some picture,
maybe at some file store website or your own website,
you would like to have as your avatar, in miniformat,
just give us link or show us this image
And somebody, me or someone else,
will make a smaller 'avatar' 75x75 pixels from it.
Tell a bit how you would like it to look.
Regards

Maybe you could use this one?
I can easily change the background colour if you have a preference. I messed with lots of ideas but I really like this one.
It is simple, looks like a professional logo and a little bit like a kind of spectrum analyser.
It has a strong identity I think without being distracting.
Cheers,
Martin.

Speaking of spectrum analyzers, I've changed mine from the Canada flag to this image of the display of my home made spectrum analyzer mainframe on a Tek 2247A scope.
We see 100MHz 😉

Pjotr said:Mine is a screenshot of the “Robot” from the film “Metropolis” by Fritz Lang 1927. IMO this film is a statement in film history.
More…..

I have to agree.
I once composed a soundtrack for the film with some friends at college. It was lots of fun. It's hard to believe it was 1927!!!
My current Avatar is pushing the boundaries of good taste so please let me know if anyone feels it is inappropriate for this forum.
It takes a long time to play through so it will not distract too much. I'm sure I will change it soon anyway.
I always do. Cheers, Martin.
PS If anyone wants to convert a video clip to an avatar then I would be happy to help.

Well.... I don't like it much. But it's KBK's avatar I really hate. Just don't want to see that over and over and over. 😡
