That is an example of what they looked like. Also the avatars were a single design for each race (there were no individual class designs yet). Of course this is a big task, but I think it would make these forums feel much more vanilla.

There is already a sticky thread with a link to these avatars. If you want to use them, feel free.

They're missing the border markup around them. I need my immersion ;)

My next trick would be to post a totally "legal" download for photoshop, but I don't think the mods will like that much.

I have another problem though. I have to decrease the dimensions of the avatar to have the border fit in the avatar lol.

Learn CSS and get an addon like Stylish for Google Chrome and you can give yourself a 500x500 avatar, colored posts, borders, and even replace the Nostalrius background with a porn JPEG.

I totally forgot about Greasemonkey/Stylish. This could be done.


... but funny enough, I have another problem...


I fucking hate CSS. All my pages consist of either unstyled divs, btns, etc or bootstrap/jquery.
