OK folks, in case some may have forgotten, here's how to get all of those cool avatars and sigs back on the new board:

1. The first thing you'll need is an image. Go find your favorite picture of Michael Vick, HTH or Pat Kerney from various places on the web. One cool place is http://www.avatarist.com/avatars/Sports/
Search for your guy and download to your computer.

Other great links to choose your pics are these favorites of mine and most other true believer Falcons fans:

Great pictures

and

2nd Best Site on the 'net (after the 'Roost)


2. Once you've grabbed your favorite pic, upload it to a free hosting site. A highly regarded one is

www.imageshack.us

3. This site will provide a number of links to your file that you can use in your 'Roost Profile.

To set your uploaded picture as your avatar (Left-side graphic), copy and paste the very last link provided, the one that says, "Link directly to image" into the Roost Profile field that reads, "Enter a URL to an online avatar image".

You might want to create a separate browser window, go to the forum, click "My Controls" from the top of the screen, then "Edit Avatar Settings" to get to this page where you input the URL.

4. If you want that image in your Signature (Bottom area), you should
Select "Edit signature"
copy and paste the text from Imageshack that reads, "Thumbnail for forums (1)" into the body of the signature.

That's all there is to it.

Welcome back Birdy, slick name change there, would never have recognized you.

You have your first pinned topic, and thanks for posting that so everyone can remember. It took me two days to find my Kerney sig that Green Machine did for me, and then I had to try to figure out how to make it a sig again....

Now, if those colors can get changed. I got the grey on the bottom/top, but can't get rid of that stinking blue. We were close last night, but then it got messed up so we had to scrap it!

HEY, I never learned how to use the quotes on the old board Birdy I owe you .50 how do you use the quotes?

Once again Roosters I am offering my services to you. Just try to be specific in your requests.

Here is some of my work:

Hey GM. My sig is one of yours as well.

Who the hell is Kellen Clemons and why would you make a sig of him?

You don't know who Kellen Clemons is??? I am shocked, Guy!


GM: great to have you back. My kerney is also a GM creation, except I need to make it larger. It took me three days to figure out how to put it on here.

Byron (slingblade) will be contacting you! I hope it's not for a Christina signature.

For those of you who weren't on the old site, GM made many of the sigs and avatars for a lot of our posters. His works speaks louder than any of the praise I could give him!!

Thanks for the kind words!!!

Megs, here is the original!




Kellen is our QB of the future(I HOPE!!!)


We drafted him in the 2nd round from Oregon. Some experts, like Ron Jaworski, have him tabbed as the "best" QB in the draft. If he did not get injured in college, he probably would have gone in the 1st round.

I know, I was messing with you. Wouldn't that have been nicer if it were Matt Schaub?

Hey Gm -- I was hoping you would swing by here again! You made me one with Roddy and Jenkins. Would you mind posting it up here again? I pointed to it but never saved to my hard drive.

Thanks!

John

Sorry, I can not find it..But it would be my pleadure to make a new one for you.


Early thank you for Nick Mangold....I guess.....

Here are a couple Vick wallpapers

In case you can't see, these have Falconsroost.com in the left corner with the "A"--they look great on my computer!

thanks GM, really appreciate it!

BTW -- whats going on in Jets running game? Is anyone besides Jim Brown going to be able run behind that line?

Well, our line got alot better with DBrick and Mangold. We also added Tre Teague.

A couple of banner ideas.

I like this one for some reason. Nice work GM.

That is really good.I like it.

Got these on the PM, GM, just looked at it for first time today.

These look great--Monkeee can send you the "A" also - I don't have it here at the office. If not, I'll send later from home.

You do such great work!

A new Wallpaper

hey GM, when you have time, could you re-do the Roddy and Jenkins one? Or maybe even something with Kerney and Abraham? Double trouble

This one????




Or a new one?

I know one I'd like to see if possible. One that shows our defensive line. I think they will be a showcase this season. We need a damn nickname for them like the Dome Patrol had back in the day for the Aints linebackers. Would be nice to see them lined up. May as well put in Shropshire for Lavalamp though. I think that writing is on the wall.



I really like that picture. It's one of the first I've ever seen of them lined up beside one another. Too bad fatass is off to the left of it and Coleman is buried behind Kerney and Abraham.

thanks much -- that is the one.

did mine work

Could you be as so kind as to use this sig and incorperate "JOKER 32" into it in a cool looking way.

Hey Greeny,

Can you make one for me with Abraham, Coleman and Kerney (Add #99 TJ Jackson if you can find him), with the immortal words superimposed somewhere in it..."It all starts up front"

That'd be cool.
