for those of you who haven't noticed i have my first PS gurus avatar. the soldier is from Ghost Recon: Future soldier and the original image consists of around 12 layers with brush stroke effects, gradiant maps rasterized text and splatter brushes
yeah i'm a girl gamer, so what?
anyway, i usually change my avatar or signature when i get bored of it, so feel free to make suggestions for the next one or even for my signature.
or just comment on this one! :D

so your a girl, good on ya.
the avatar is good, maybe add some colour or differing light to give it that bit of depth maybe, it is a little flat - but never the less it's a good effort.

P.S. That's somehow reminded old game on atari (about 20year old). Maybe because black/white (i was playing it on b/w) or Z letter (it triggared memories). Main character was cosmonaut who was shooting things.

thanks to you both, agreed tis a little flat. i've removed the B&W gradient map and added more saturation and this is the outcome:

well got that for my sig eventually, people (well, my friends and theirs) on private LAN co-op servers just call me "lone wolf" simply because i have a tendency to grab a sniper rifle and run off on my own. so... :p
feel free to make suggestions, they are always welcomed.

Very true.

But it was tough if you had enough human players on-line.

Started playing L4D2 recently - love killin' zombies!
