[Discussion] Show Off Your New Banners & Avatars/Get Advice!

We need a thread to show off new banners and avatars, so people can comment and ask advice or take suggestions for their PC's avatars! Hex's offer to make avatars etc has got me thinking we could definitely use one of these types of threads. :)

So, if anyone can't find an avatar, has one but wants it spruced up, or just wants to show off what they did... post it here!

I think I'd like an avatar of Issac, mostly because it's impossible to find a picture of a clay pirate. So, yeah, I'd like an avatar.

I actually found all sorts of pirate sculptures out there. Just google for pirate sculptures - Pirates of the Caribbean in Disney has a ton of them too.. so you can pick the image you want. It's easy as pie to make it look like clay from bronze. Also, you can add (or I can) clouds, the sea, etc to the background easily enough of the image you are using.

Okay, thanks Goss, for now, I'll use that image, but I'll work on the avatar. (even though I am no artist)

EDIT: Okay, first test of my new disastrous avatar... even though its kinda hilariously bad, I do like it. God blez this topic!

I've created a few signature banners for Malia, but decided against using any of them, because they don't really fit her concept. I want to show them somewhere though, so here are the different versions. Criticism and advice would be appreciated! Or maybe someone else wants to use one of them which is perfectly fine with me.
