polybore

I'd like to see your BC avatar large!

Topics: avatar, bc, image, large

Polybore's poor old eyes are failing him and is tired of squinting at tiny wee avatars on Blogcatalog.

Please post your avatar in this discussion so polybore and all can see it macro not nano.

Bear in mind polybore may pop your image into a video montage if that is ok with you. (kinda stole this idea from Kat)

If you are not sure how to do this here is how. First your image needs to be hosted online by either your blog, adrive.com, google groups or similar.

In your comment use the html you can find here www.w3schools.com/HTML/html_images.asp and replace url with the url of your image.

  Excellent, very nice pic.
  
  This is almost as good as when I got my first pair of glasses when I was a child. "Wow Mum, everything is in 3d". Poor polybore was short sighted for a while before anyone noticed and polybore did not know any better.

Polybore is about to update the video to v1.4. If you want your avatar included please post it here in the next hour or so or email to polybore at yahoo dot co dot uk

If you have not already seen it here is v1.3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gPYBlfmvKY

Polybore has been playing around with adding links to the blogs of the avatars in the video (v1.0 just now). There is a slight loss in video quality though. If you get a minute could you have a look at this and let me know if you think adding links in the video is worth the loss in quality? Ta.

www.watchblogvideos.com/2008/09/bloggers-avatars-and-links-videos.html

Its a bit fiddly to do so I don't want to do it if nobody thinks it is good. Thanks in advance for your help.

[reply]

  Well, it does lose some quality, as you said, but the images are still visible, and I like the idea of having my link out there in more place ... so give it a try?

You can see the latest version of the video with all the submitted avatars prior to this comment included here www.youtube.com/watch?v=80ho9JJI3LQ

If you would like your avatar included from now on you would be best doing it by getting in touch with polybore via the contact button at www.watchblogvideos.com or by message on BC because I don't have email alerts switched on for this discussion and I don't want to miss your avatar.

Thanks to all for participating it has been fun, hope you like the video.

  Thanks fly. Animoto has a library of music you can use without infringing copyright. I found the track there. Glad I did, it goes well with the video. I'll be checking out the rest of Jukebox the Ghost's music now.
  
  Glad to hear you are artist friendly.

  Glad you liked him. I fell in love with him at first sight - and through a grainy youtube replay of one of his first races, before he was a star. Now he's the undisputed best in the world, defending horse of the year, and if he wins again in 3 weeks he breaks the all-time earnings record for a North American thoroughbred.

  How about an avatar crawling out from my monitor when I was not looking, then secreting itself somewhere in shadows to wait for it's opportunity to strike.
5. 9/07/08

  Then, you should keep your room well lit, so whatever crawls out from the monitor won't have a place to hide.

Thanks to all. I have all the avatars in the thread to this point. If you are not in the latest video do not worry I will add you over the next few days.

It would be great if you could get in touch with me with your avatar via my blog watchblogvideos.com instead of this thread.

Please let this thread fade away. Thanks.

From now on I will only be adding avatars to the video via www.watchbloggervideos.com (much easier for me that way) cheers.
