because helmets are cool.
Hee, I'm the strongest, ho! Hee ho!

I know the "I'm the strongest" one is Cirno, but I dunno the other one. Jack Frost or Jack Skellington (the 2nd guess is based on her being a skeleton)? Tongue
^^ Indeed, it's a mix of Cirno and Jack Frost, the mascot from Atlus. (Adorable, btw)
recognized both chars instantly Cool

(which is kind of ironic because I never played anything starring them)
Making custom Fire Emblem sprites can be tricky...

I think I did a decent job, though.
Gors is back!!
You're lying, you still have Arisa as your avatar!!! Angry
I was tired of being a maid, so now I'm a ghost.

Also sig change because why not <:
Changed my sig so it's my site's logo, and changes to a random version of it. Only seems to change on refresh mind... so I'm not sure if I like it... specially as I'm guessing the regulars here hardly refresh.
How does that work? Is it in the image itself or have you done something to it where it's hosted? If the former then that would be awesome.
The latter. How would one perform the former? An image is an image and nothing more, except when you exploit some serious security holes. Genki ^_^

I like random thingies.

I dunno, that's why I'm asking if it's possible Rolleyes

I read about fancy PHP or CSS stuff you can do to make it random, I was just wondering if there might be some kind of special thing you can do with GIFs.
Speaking og GIFs, it would be possible, but there is no standard for "go to a random frame". There was an almost-standard for "wait for user input" (as in, user clicks image) but about noone implemented it.
Basically, through Application Extensions (a GIF thing, the only widely supported one is the Netscape Loop Ext. which stores looping information), a lot of things would theoretically be possible with GIF but noone supports anything. The reason is that there is no real usage for such things as you can do more with PHP and javascript whereas such image features could be abused in worse ways.
Yeah it's a host thing. Magical GIF code would be cool, but sadly I am not a wizard.
