In need of a new avatar.

I'm personaly no good at image editing, would anyone be up to the challenge of combining the two pictures below into one and shrinking it down to the size of my current avatar, keeping everything animated...

So who's up for it?

well buddy... i tried with all my heart. I can't figure out how to make the dumb .gif image more compressed. I supercompressed it and used lower quality jpg's. I will try making the jpgs even lower quality and trying again.

this bugs me

From what I have seen with animated gifs is the colors mean so much in reguard to the size. These only have 32 colors.

The people in the white coats are the bad people, they are trying to make my frineds go away....

I won't let them!

I wont let them either. They wear white coats to blind you in the sunlight - so I only go out at night, you can see they are just coats then, no people in them. The voices show me the way....

During the day, yes, they blind you, but at night, the empty coats are an illusion, the evil ghosts try to get me to wear the coat, but the voices tell me it's a trap. I won't let the demonic servants catch me.

You looked in a coat didn't you... didn't your voices tell you not to? They told me the truth would send me insane, I keep safe, I don't look, I shall ask my voices what can be done for you... you must listen!
June 19th, 2002, 06:11 AM
Matridom

The voices tell me not to be afraid of the truth, for the truth shall set me free. The voices have never been wrong. Why do your voices hide the truth from you?

The servants of Evil shall not assimilate me however, there pokey weapons will never touch me, for i am armed with the almighty LART! My voices tell me that if i use the LART properly, the demonic servants well begin to hear my voice and be returned tot he side of light! The Holy war has begun!
June 19th, 2002, 06:16 AM

There is truth and then there is truth... the whitecoats WANT you to look because they know you will be inneffective in the battle to come... They want you to fear and strike back, it is the first step in going to the darkside. I know what they are, I do not need to look upon them to know "their truth"

My voices say you should be careful not to look again, the answers are on The Darkside of the Moon... listen and know how to fight back without giving them yourself too....
June 19th, 2002, 06:21 AM
Matridom

My voices assure me that i can handle the truth of the white coats. I shall strike back, but only to gain converts, my voices tell me that stealth and secrecy are a necessity. I shall wait in ambush for the white coats.

My voices do not want me to fear, but to know the scope and depth of the dark powers of the white coats so that i may be more effective in the holy war.

I am strong in the light side. Even with overwhelming odds, I shall persevear and win!
June 19th, 2002, 06:26 AM

Fear is the mindkiller, I shall not fear, I shall let it pass through me and over me and then turn and look at it and see it for what it really is....

May your lart be ever light and its abilities to adjust phenomenal...

Perhaps our voices wish us to fight differently, to keep them off balance, I shall have to ask mine.

My voices have educated me on how to respect the enemy’s vast power, to anticipate it's attacks on my mind, and it's subtle attempts to steal my voices away. Respect them i do, fear them i do not. I have become an elite soldier in the Holy war, I shall do my voices honour!

My voices tell me to follow you, to take guidance, you are truly exceptional they say, to be able to look on a coat and see it for what it is, ugly and black and devil like, but to not fear it is truly enlightened.

Tell me what I should do?

Each voice is the voice of our guardian angel and gives each soldier unique instructions, incomprehensible to other people, even our allies. To forsake that voice and follow any other voice is to pull a thread from the great tapestry, beginning the process to total ruination.

Your voices may hide part of the Truth, but they do so in preparation for your role in the Holy war. To attempt to take a different role is to invite disaster..

Oh I see, my voices tell me to follow you and you tell me to follow my voices.... The solution must be to pack up my stuff and walk behind you so that when you are defeated there will still be one more to take the stand... that would also mean there is one being groomed to walk behind me too, is there already one in front of you?

My voices say it is an eternal struggle. I am privileged to be part of it.
