Thanks alot for Profile Account Customization!

I hope I'm the first to post this, but, without any a due.
Thanks a Lot Crytek for Improving the site with new Account customization features and for a first in a long time "Avatars" +Pre-Loaded ones

It's just been so long.

I've noticed some people have diferent avatars... I cannot change mine. Is it a rank feature? By ranking up in posts you get a diferent avatar?

EDIT: Nvm... I got it... Strange I still had the old gamesas options :/ Anyways can we use our OWN avatars instead?

Why would we need our own, when we have all these awesome ones instead!

nice too finally see this improvement done

Anyways can we use our OWN avatars instead?

would like to know this too
also about signatures, it seams like they arent working yet or did i made something wrong?

True... but then we wouldn't be unique

Also... The signature isn't working

wow cool i hope we can change it soon

The pre-loaded one's are already great.

The avatar are so cool

Hi guys,

Glad you like the new avatars! For those that are unaware, you can change your avatar by going into your UCP and clicking on "Edit Avatar".

As for your signatures, in order to keep the forums clean and user-friendly, signatures won't show in your posts. Instead, you'll be able to view members signatures by viewing their profile (clicking on their name).

What do you think so far? Any ideas for potential future avatars that could be added to the gallery?

Cheers!

Are Avatars here really based on some kind of rank system? If they are, does that mean their are more avatars hidden from view? Thanks in Adv.

It would be unfair if we had all the "Awesome" ones, whereas those who aren't at a higher level would have the "Meh, not good" ones.

I think this is great, but I do hope we can see the signatures sometime in the future! (Even though we can upload it and see it others/our profile)

The signatures are already available on your User Control panel and visible when someone is viewing your account.

maybe ones from the characters in c1 and cw like syko, prophet and so on
also maybe some more of aliens and not only the pinger or whatever it is called
i'll tell you more if i get more ideas

btw can we get the full res images of the avatar, maybe put it in the gallery?
cause there are some great images that i would really like to try and make some wallpapers

This is an idea, that seems very possible. Can you guys make it possible?

Regarding signatures, there's not a lot of point in having signatures if nobody can see them. I'm not going to click on the profiles of everyone I see post just to see their sig, and I doubt anyone else will either. It seems fairly pointless to have these if they're not attached to posts :/

As for avatars, what exactly is wrong with proper custom avatars? Or are there plans for enabling these? (Yes/No would be appreciated here, not the typical "wait and see"-type response).

Well, to each his/her own opinion. Custom avatars would kinda be difficult at this point. The dimensions and size are more of a hassle, than just selecting one already made for you.

They're not based on a rank system, but I do like this idea, perhaps it is something we can look into.

This may be possible, I cannot confirm it right now as it would need to be agreed to first, but if it can be done it will be done

No plans for custom avatars at this time. It's possible we could add them in the future but gamesas has undergone a number of changes lately with more to follow, and often custom avatars (and signatures) can start to take away from the feel of the site. Of course if there is a high user demand for custom avatars then we'll address it right now (after all this is a site for you guys!) but right now we're happy with the current avatars and hope to add a wider selection in the future.

At least something some of us agree on.

I like, thanks!!

Seems like they're ripped from some cool concept artwork? So how about releasing some high-res versions of it?

@Reiger,
Don't worry, they're working on it; if possible.

They could still make some more avatars. . . -_->

Of course if there is a high user demand for custom avatars then we'll address it right now (after all this is a site for you guys!)

Official poll on this perhaps? Would help get the community's opinion.

More like a survey question made in an instant. The site community can help with this.

some of these avatars look kick a

Many thanks to Crytek,

way cool new stuff and avatars, that we have all been waiting for, some more patiently than others, and of course as this adds more work for you guys, I am suprised that some of the users cant seem to take all your efforts with just a tadd more patience.

The site is blossoming slowly but surely into a great place, and i feel you will have more to offer as time goes by, so again many thanks

Guss
