Lack of Reject-avatars

In honour of what is easily the greatest moment in F1 since Takuma Sato passed Fernando Alonso's McLaren in a Super Aguri, I suggest we all adopt the above avatar for today at least. Or at least some form of Jules Bianchi avatar.

What if you are serving a forfeit avatar after a failed avatar challenge?

Well, I went for a Lucien Bianchi avatar, because it's sort of related and of course I'd go for a Lucien Bianchi avatar

I say that should be waived for today - all should be able to celebrate the glory of Jules Bianchi.

Though really, it should be up to whoever gave you that avatar...

Ah, thank you for clarifying that.

The Ligier Log Flume can be changed for one day.

Well, I totally missed the jump there. Since I feel nice, Rob can keep that avatar, as obviously Bianchi scoring is easily the best F1 moment I remember seeing in my lifetime. But remember this Rob, when I win the Williams bet, you won't get out so easily, alright?

Right, as nice an event as Jules Bianchi scoring was, could you please start reverting back to other avatars? It's rather confusing to have three people with the exact same avatar...

Or at least change to some different Bianchi avatars! In fact, I think I might do that myself...

I've said this before and I'll say it again - I made this avatar, I'll wear it as long as I want.

Like Lucien Bianchi, who was the last Bianchi to score points in a Monaco GP, before Jules!

I know, I was aiming the message more towards Roblomas and Pasta.

I keep on reading that as 'mortal enemy'.

Which is indeed what it should have been - I typo'd my previous post.

So are we getting this Belgian civil war on the go or not? Wait, who am I kidding, Belgians, actually doing something, that'll be the day

Oh, but we do do stuff, we just like to take the time to find the most complicated way imaginable to do it

Indeed, it's no fun when everybody understands what we're doing. In fact, the key to surprise is not knowing what you're doing yourself!

If we ever were to have a civil war, it's going to be one hell of a bureaucratic one! Before you can attack your enemy, you have to fill in tons of paperwork. Yes yes, prepare for the most boring war history has produced! I challenge Tommy and King Philip to a waffle baking contest, to settle this once and for all!

It was time for a change, and i figured a prancing pony would be a perfect fit.

It would also make a fitting logo for Forza Rossa given their Ferrari connection.

Out of interest, how did Biscione and Nuppiz get these fancy banners and avatars? Is it a moderator privilege?

The avatar size is now 150px by 150px. As for the banners, I am not sure.

Along with increasing the maximum avatar size, Biscione has enabled the use of images in signatures. Anyone can use them if they wish, just keep the image size reasonable (i.e. don't exceed 800px x 50px).

Also, I've gone back to the very first avatar I used here (in increased size, of course).

My avatar is simply a celebration of my favourite moment in F1 history - Vittorio Brambilla elatedly celebrating his only F1 victory, despite having smashed off the front of his March as he passed the chequered flag in Austria way back in 1975.

Got to be one of the best F1 moments. I always used to crash over the finish line on racing games and then I heard that the "Monza Gorilla" did it in real life!

Sweet, I'll make my Piquet Jr avatar bigger when I'm allowed to have it back!

I didn't realise until recently that his only pole position was so controversial, or that he'd died in what was effectively a 'bizarre gardening accident'.

I had to look those two incidents up. After surviving a dangerous period of F1, fancy dying like that. :cry:

I wouldn't mind having it for a few months if that is ok.

Sorry, you need to sign a contract with eurobrun and get it notarised by etyl before you can use that specific picture as your forum avatar.
