Alright, so I love my avatar. That hawk picture is frigging awesome. But, I would like to have a version of it that's a little less "straight photo" looking if that makes sense. Ideally, I'd love it to have a slightly military feel to it too (maybe by incorporating our new digital camo colors or something, I dunno.) I have neither the software, talent or vision necessary to create something cool looking, but I know there are people on the forum who do. If anyone would care to take a shot at throwing something together in photoshop (or whatever) for me, that would be awesome. And if not that's alright too since this is basically me whining for a favor .
We now return you to your regularly scheduled forum. Thanks for your time.

The third one is the best, looks the most professional, yet I hate to cut out that much of the bird.
Syd, I shrank it down to 100px high specifically for that reason, but she didn't specify that it was for this website only.
What if she wanted to use it for Facebook or other sites that allow for a more detailed image?

Syd's been cranky lately. I think he needs to get laid.

They all look great, guys...I'm saving all them. LOVE the patriotic look of the flag background, Vald. GP, all the takes on the Army of One logo are great; I'm torn between the "US HAWK" and the tightly framed "US ARMY" one as my favorites. They're both great. I actually like the first one too, since it keeps the bird full-sized. Syd, I'm actually gonna use yours on another VG forum; its perfect since its in this sites colors and I talk about this place all the time. Ba'al...that was hilarious and awesome on many levels; its my new avatar on the military forum I belong to. Opti...
I might just have to test drive (so to speak) a bunch of 'em to see which one fits the best. Thanks for all of your help, guys...y'all came through in spades.
