Post subject: NEW CONTEST: Pick out my stars name - NSFW
|
#1 (permalink)

I am going to host a contest. 500 DOLLARS TO THE WINNER...... (ask forum members if I have ever stiffed 'em).
I have always played on Ultimate Bet and Party Poker but now I am moving over to stars where I want a NEW CREATIVE name with an ATTRACTIVE AVATAR.
Conditions
1.) Name must be creative
(also check to make sure its available)
2.) Name must have a visually stunning avatar
(Remember avatar should be bright and pretty to look at)
EX:
Name: Docta Seuss
Avatar:
_----------------- SOME AWESOME PICTURE OF Dr. SEUSS_-------------------------
Another example would be Snow Leopard who has this pretty white leopard for his avatar. If this name was not already taken, and someone reccomended it they would win the contest instantly because
1. Name is popular, yet unique
2. Picture is visually stunning
Remember factor in things like avatar space. Even though you can resize pictures to fit a pokerstars avatar exclusively, you still want a small yet appealing eye catching avatar.
Some examples of things I do not want:
-LambchopDC
1. Name is lame
2. Ugly avatar to hard to read
(No offense)
- Johnnybax
1. Name is not creative
2. Avatar is to personal
(I plan on playing the stars million guarenteed everyweek and want Lee Jones to comment on what an awesome name I have)
Contest will end Wendesday May 10th. I made this contest worth alot of money because I want people to put time into this and not just spend 5 minutes. There is alot of money to be won, do you're best and if I like it you will be 500 richer, GL2all!

Make sure your avatar is of an eye. They're original and look menacing to your ops

(You've all had some great ideas and I can tell some of you did some HW and I appreciate it. Yet, I will not respond whether I like or dislike you're idea til the end of the contest.)
Just wanted to note and reiterate something. these pics need to be small yet to the point.
Remember avatar space is very very small so elaborate pictures will not fit and if you force them to fit the picture will look blury and you wont be able to make out anything.

So far I have had 3 ideas that I REALlY REALLY liked alot.
1.) firebird with a very cool (pic of bird in like a vulcanoe spitting out fire)
2.) NoMoreGames (monopoly guy with money)
3.) RedLion
The rest of you have created very funny ones (50mlookingfor13m, Iwonthurtyou,river jones, etc! , yet these are very good laughs but not what I am really looking for since I plan to play on this name for along time and seeing this name day in and day out would get kind of old.
I kind of want something cool and popular. Especially a name that is not taken for some odd reason is still open, 1.) find that name and then 2.) give me a great simple yet pretty avatar to go with it. I have liked every post on here and thank you all for all the time and effort you've put into helping me. Yet alot of you are asking me of things I like/want out of my avatar on pm.... here are some ideas hope this this helps.
- Santa
- Fairy Tale charecters
- Any kind of charecter that involves animation
- Animal
-Object
- Feel free to list anything you find interesting, yet for the 100th time try to make the avatar simple. Remember there is only so much room on the avatar so trying to have these elaborate pictures is just not going to work. Keep it simple and small so that people do not have to squint to see what the pic is of.
...I like names like this on stars
(Pokerhands, SnowLeopard, etc. and then they both have very nice avatars with a cool picture that corresponds to the name. )
Hope this helps and keep up the good work
