Browser Art

I just discovered Firefox Personas and fell in love with it. If you're a Firefox user and this is the first you've heard of it you can find out more here:
http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/
http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/getting_started
Essentially it adds artwork into your browser, which sits behind your toolbars at the top and bottom.

Anyway, I've been having lots of fun making my own. Currently my puppy is looking out at me from my browser, which I think is pretty cool.

So I was wondering if anyone else had been playing around with this feature, and what you've been doing with it.

Since I've been enjoying myself so much with this, I was also wanting to get suggestions for others I could make. If you want me to make one for you using your favourite picture, desktop background, or perhaps some artwork you've made yourself, I'd be happy to take requests. (Not charging for this - just doing it for fun.) Copyrighted artwork - be it yours or someone else's - is fine so long as the artist specifically states it can be used in such a manner.

Thoughts?

Sort of a pegasus manip?

I don't tend to be particularly good at manips, but I'll give it a go.

Okay. If you need a manip, I might be able to provide you with one.

That would help actually. I'm having a bit of trouble with it.

Okay, just give me the outlines and the background that'd you'd prefer, and I'll get it done today.

Don't put in a background - just keep it transparent or leave the original image there. I have some tight restrictions to work around so let me sort out that side of things.

Basically just do something nice which you want and which you'd like to see. I have some ideas, so if possible I'd like it if you could have it in this pose:

I'm working on a few things myself, but I'd rather see what you can come up with.

Okay, I'll try. I'm not sure what I can find. If anything, it's going to be a mesh, so it'll be a bit choppy.

I can find that pose, but it's a statue, is that okay?

Misty Glen · Joined: 01 Nov 2007 Posts: 1393

That's fine. If you want to use a different pose though that's fine too. At the end of the day go with whatever will turn out the best, even if that means discarding my preferences.

Still haven't done anything about a pegasus persona, but I'm working on it.

I made this other one though:

Okay. I'll start on it right now. Do you have a preferred background?
