Hello there BYOND’er!

Vermolius and I have been toying around with some fun projects and,
with this one in particular, we need the participation of the
community. We want to create a Paper doll Avatar system that lets you,
our player, create characters they would enjoy playing AND feel
connected to.

To do this we want our range of customization to encompass all types
of faces. We really want you to be able to make an iconic version of
yourself, similar to what I have done with my Ninja Mikey Avatar.
This, however, requires we gather a good visual catalogue of all kinds
of facial features covering an entire range of diversity.



I’m offering you the chance of being made into an Avatar, costing you only a picture of your portrait, and some background information.

Your submission will be referenced for creating our “parts”, then modulated and thrown into our banks. Everyone who is used will
receive a copy of their avatar via e-mail (if they supplied one) so they may begin using it as soon as I get done making it--they're BYOND
compatible, 64x64 pixel avatars afterall.

Submission guidelines:


To make my job easier, I ask that you please follow the guidelines or be at risk of being overlooked.
  • Front facing, large and clear image of your head, neck and shoulders. Good source of lighting and preferably from above.
  • Image dimensions no larger than 400 x 300 pixels.
  • Be sure to include your age, and ethnic background.
    Feel free to add anything else you feel is relevant.
  • Include your email address if responding via comment.
  • Submit surveys here, in a comment to this topic. If you want to keep your image private, please e-mail it to
    [email protected]. Make sure the email subject includes the words "BYOND Avatar Picture".
  • Images from the BYOND People repository do not meet our requirements.

Thanks,

Tayoko~

because that would make too much sense

The vast majority of those images do not have the straight on perspective that we are seeking. It's best if we receive submissions directly suited to our needs. Beyond that, it's more polite to have volunteers offer their images.

If you don't like it, please browse elsewhere.

Zaole, I'm removing your posting privileges because you are always annoying me.

Would you mind if I use these faces to practice pixel art?
pshh I need my face too >_> keeps my skull warm =]

I tried looking for some pictures of me with your requirements but yeah, no luck so far. I'll probably take some next week or something lol.

Actually, I'll comment further on this matter. IF you feel as though your BYOND People image fits our other guidelines, feel free to submit it.
Those aren't blue and sparkly!

Do you watch movies? It's not a very subtle joke.

Make sure it is a clear shot of your head and shoulders (top down lighting if possible)
Which Head ;)
Well, I'll get one after I get back from class, my hairs still wet and I could use a good shave.

This isn't one of Falacy's games, take that elsewhere.
