Well, I've been looking at my avater lately and there's alot of things that irritate me about it, so I decided to rework it to suit my current pixel-self. Here's how its looking:



Critique would be greatly appreciated. Comments are cool too

EDIT: Fiddled with colours and touched up some things:

Second edit looks a LOT more like a real skull, great work.  I did like the blue glowing eyes better though. ;)

Thanks Omegavolt . Yeah a few people have expressed their preference for the older version, I personally can't stand it!

Update: Reduced colours to 9, fiddled with teeth, AA, a few pixels here and there, and upped the contrast again:

Ah yes, looks much better with this higher contrast. Lovely avatar design - easily recognisable.

@aleiav: No, I've never been hugely into the jaw on skulls; sometimes I include it, sometimes I dont.

@larwick: Thanks! Good to hear someone likes it XD.

I like it too, don't get me wrong, I just thought there'd be a bottom jaw but... it's not 100% necessary.
