Yoda

I switch every so often, so this isn't permanent or anything, but which avatar do you guys think I should use next?

I think you should do something drastic and change your username to something else.

I could put another half-dozen up, easy, and might if there's no clear consensus on this.

BTW, you're totally changing it because I made you your current one, and now you must not like me.

I'm voting 6.

I like #2 as well, and it would be a change, but 6 seems more like you.

Seriously? I literally don't even remember that.

He's had #1 before. It wouldn't be wise to go back to that if you want something new.

Yoda
04-20-15, 09:25 PM
That she did.

Related (minor) caveat: I might re-crop whichever I end up using.

That's true.

I was originally going to vote for 2, because it's awesome, but felt people might think it's a bit too dark. Like, literally, in terms of lighting. Doesn't bother me though.

I'll see how the voting looks tomorrow and if it looks fairly split I'll start over with more options (maybe some more old-timey Yoda avs). But if a clear consensus emerges by then, I'll go with that.

Hey Yoda, did you know Im a fan of the puppeteer who helped create your little green guy??

Yoda
04-20-15, 09:42 PM
I did not know that.

I really like that last image! Maybe I should just plan on "rebooting" this thread tomorrow with more choices. Sorry for the possible false start!

But hey, here's your chance: post any Yoda images you think would make good avatars and I'll consider them for the voting.

04-20-15, 09:45 PM
let me explain this to you.. there was a young woman working for Henson named Wendy Midener... she helped create your little man.... Henson had her work on other projects... The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth... welll.. Wendy met the conceptual artist Brian Froud and they married and had a little boy right before the making of Labyrinth.. so Henson allowed them to use their young son, Toby, in the film...

My Criticisms:

http://i.imgur.com/S5sZMGg.pngYou've had this before. And he does look really pissed off.

http://i.imgur.com/EMvQjb3.pngI like it, but if I was you, this would grow old on me fast. Too dark, too DeviantArt-ish. But I do like the cigar and the weapons strapped on.

http://i.imgur.com/509Zaea.pngA disaster on every level. I see words in there that are shrunk down and I don't like that. Boring. Horrible face and expression. Doesn't look like Yoda right away.

http://i.imgur.com/WjmHUOv.pngI like this, but isn't it another one you have already used? Still, it's not the best.

http://i.imgur.com/UqE4GB0.pngThis would be great if it's 1995 and you're 11 years old.


http://i.imgur.com/F4TamGn.pngThis is my favorite of the bunch. Sophisticated, clear, gentlemanly, interesting background design, a good, friendly expression while also rational. This looks like the avatar of a forum admin who was voted Smartest MoFo.

there's a chain-of-command when you're the General. This is what Yoda might use if he was a Lieutenant or a Captain

Cool without trying too hard.

Different. A real change. Looks laid back, but in charge at the same time.

And who knows what someone is thinking behind a pair of shades? Is he watching those spammers and thinking about banning them? Is he watching us? His moderators?

This is the Yoda of the future.

Okay, while #6 is definitely winning, it still has less than half of the total vote, so I think that's just enough of a spread that I'll reboot this.

I really love a lot of the images posted! I'm gonna crop a handful of my favorites and put up another thread shortly (I'll close this one and link to the new one and all that when it's up).

At this point I'm wondering if I should expand this. Maybe put up like 10, and the top 3-4 go onto the next round, so that people can have second choices. If there's a lot of options it's tough for any of them to get a majority without having cutoffs and stuff.
