That beadwork you have in your sig really is awesome, Atma. This seems like the logical thread to point that out, and may inject a much-need dose of...friendliness I guess.
Also, Drew, I noticed the title change earlier. Made me lol for a good couple minutes. Love it.

Yeah, Atma, I've been meaning to ask about that. Is that actual beads or those little plastic ones that you can melt together? Your detail is ridiculous.
Who likes role-playing games? Me. Way too goddamn much.

The little ones your melt together, fuse beads. Those aren't done by me though, a friend of mine did them. He has a whole Gallary of work and they are awesome. I've always wanted to get into it, just never found the time. He just takes pics, loads them into MSPaint and Zooms in until you see each pixel. Hardest part is matching the colors up.
Holy crow! Those are really phenomenal. My sister used to use the little fuse beads, that's why they looked familiar, but she was terrible with them and I badgered her into stopping once she made a huge melted plastic Ace of Base logo.

Yeah its really insane. I'm going to have my own set one day. And I thought those beads were lame. Who would have thought they would have been so perfect for Pixel or Sprite art?

Obviously my 100 x 68 avatar makes me some kind of superior God among men! Time for a victory laugh.

On a slightly different subject, can you fix animated gifs as well for sigs?
I got one that I wanted to add for a while, but turns out it's freakin' huge.
If you can, lemme know so I can PM you the image's link.

Uh, Zeus? Your sig is too large...
Well, if you mean file size, it is a tad big as it's 80 frames.. In terms of actual height, however, it is a little shorter then your picture + links. I suppose it is 40 more pixels bigger then it should be for an image, though. Fixed.

200 pixels and 3 lines of text. I'm within the limits.
Mr. Spammish Meatloaf: Resize your goddamn avatar sooner than later. It recently took me about an hour to load your monstrosity of an avatar. Which reminds me, I had better check to see if my avatar is in order...

Did I mention I love that movie, BTW?
I know your in the correct limits of the rules, I was just commenting on how it's fundamentally takes up more room.. Also, yeah, the original Batman movie was amazing. When I recently saw the scene of the Joker on the umbrella I just had to make it into a GIF.
Fixing animated gifs is a lot tougher. You need a program that will seperate the frames for you. Then you need to resize every frame and recompile it.
www.gifninja.com will tear apart a gif for you, but it will not recompile anything over 5 frames, so destroy it with gifninja and remake it with something else.
