Thanksgiving Avatar Contest

[Maxie Zeus]

Well, people are putting up their Thanksgiving avatars, so it must be time for a contest! :)

OK, most of you should know the drill by now:

Find, make or create your own Thanksgiving-themed avatar and put it up. Doesn't have to be connected to your username or anything like that -- just something connected to the season.

Then, to participate in the contest come to this thread and put up a note. If the avatar is obscure, tell us a little about it.

Next Monday (the 19th) we'll lock the thread; contest is over. At that point anyone on the boards (participant or not) will get to vote on the avatars you liked the best. To do this, send an email here (tzmovieclub@yahoo.com) listing the three posters in this thread who you think have the best avatars:

* Give the person with the best avatar 3 votes.
* Give the person with the second best 2 votes.
* Give the person with the third best 1 vote.

Voting closes the night of Wednesday, Nov 21.

I will then tally up the ballots and on Turkey Day itself announce the winners and the honorable mentions.

NOTE: I will be participating, but since I'm the official score-keeper, I'm going to rule myself ineligible. So don't bother voting for my avatar, folks, it'll just be a wasted vote.

For this to work, you have to leave your avatar UP and UNCHANGED at least until Thanksgiving itself. Don't change your avatar just because the thread closes; you have to give others a chance to look over your avatar when they go to vote. (In previous contests, I suspect some people lost votes because they changed their avatar too quickly.)

If you have any questions, you can post them to this thread also.

Remember, this contest is entirely voluntary.

My holiday avatar comes under the heading of "visual pun." Points to whoever cracks it.

[Joe Tully]

Maxie's gonna spend Turkey Day with a hangover. :D Usually you drink beer while watching football, Maxie!

Take it from these guys, you don't want to visit my place for Thanksgiving.

*BURP*

Scuse me!

Here's my Thanksgiving avatar--it's from the Futurama episode That's Lobstertainment!

Eat up, everyone.

[Bird Boy]

here's mine w/ a new title and signature to match! :)

...it's not exactly turkey. Then again, who knows what's in the stuff. Slaughterhouse floor-sweepings wrapped in a booger-like jelly. Concievably there could be turkey meat mixed in with the pig butts and cow lips. ;)
Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "he's in the can".... :p

[Singin' Stray Cat]

Actually, I think Spam does make turkey - my dad bought some. :p He can have it all, I ain't touching it...

Anyway, here's my entry. As I mentioned on the avatar thread, it's a drawing of Wakko (Who-Waltzes...ahh, you know) and Mr. Gobble (from the Animaniacs episode, entitled Turkey Jerky..I think..)

Looks like it's gonna be another close one. Good luck to everyone! :D

[The Dork Knight]

Can someone make me an avatar of Mick Foley and add a little pilgrim hat like we see on BirdBoys?

[Ricochet]

Here is my **official** entry! Note the new title and signature for extra credit!!!!!:cool:

[TuffyCatt]

Well, I decided it was okay to change my Harry Potter avatar now, since I've seen the movie. So now I can be festive like everyone else! :D

Anyway, ummm, here's mine! It's a picture from a late 1800's postcard. It's a cat (:eek: Surprise!) and a turkey! :p Hee, hee...Oh, who am I kidding, I'm never gonna win one of these things! :p

Anyway, all the Thanksgiving avatars are looking great! :D This is gonna be another tough one to vote on!

There you go:


Edit: The picture seems to only work on the computer I have it saved on. But I do have the pic so you need to tell me when you need the avater. Then I will put my avatar as the Foley with Pilgrim hat, then once you get it, I change it back to the Zits.

Unless..someone has a better plan?

[Kero]

I may not celebrate it but I changed mine.

[Jimmy Kustes]

Here you go! Foley is good! My avatar can be clicked on and Saved As! :cool:

EDit: Cool beans..you got it! I changed mine back to Zits!

[The Dork Knight]

Thanks! I will use this avatar for the contest. HOWEVER! When you vote for me, it's really a vote for Duncanzits! Have a nice day! :)

[Elven Moon]

*blush* Yes, I know it's corny looking, but I made it really fast! I can draw better than that, really! :rolleyes: Well, at least have pity on me and vote for it :P

[optimal321]

Well, he's not exactly a turkey, but he's the closest original thing i could find. But, good 'ol Woodstock does have a significance to Thanksgiving. He's a float from the annual Macy's parade.

Thanks to Bird_Boy, of course!

[Karkull]

That's a sweet avatar, optimal321! I don't know why anybody else didn't think of doing a Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon.
