Sold to stpierrecanada & UniConor - thanks guys! stpierrecanada: there are 3 different avatar versions in this thread - thin head, fat head, thin head with reduced eyebrows, go with the one you like most. There is no version of fat head with reduced eyebrows though, give me a mail if you prefer that one and i put that together for you.

*** ~Two hours left on both auctions! *** http://i.imgur.com/yv3fwDg.png Leading bid #8: 75k (stpierrecanada) http://i.imgur.com/wIDUh7P.png Leading bid #7: 120k (bjornmma1) Sniper protection 10 mins - that means that every new bid closer than 10mins to DL extends it to 10 mins again. So from that point on, a bid is finally successfull 10 minutes after it has been placed without any new bid from another manager (which would extend the DL by 10 minutes again). Wow, that explaiantion sucked.

Always welcome, Jay... 2 pair of eyes see more than one.

I like what you did there, it is all a bit more in balance without the RDN on top... i'd def keep it this way. The stronger colours compared to the orange one bring out the flaws of the "Talk to Troy" font unfortunately. The font for "RDN Nutrition..." seems to become problematic in small, too, looked good in post #28 though. This setting, softer colours again, that's what i think. It's tough.

Hmm i think the orange was a good choice after all... or a light grey. Works better with the 2 pixel up for sure though. And yeah, that's some smart feedback from Splitm here. Still, there are tons of talentfree media people around haha, i've seen so much horrible, horrible stuff on highest level even, wow. If we can help with some ideas, that's a good thing.

JJ, can you put "Nutrition & Hea..." 2 pixel up (maay gets a bit to close to the side borders then but that's easy to fix) and change the orange to mild blue? I like this one and wonder how it would look.

Did some tweaking, the fat bushy eyebrows made one side of the nose look a bit off... not sure if i just stared at it for too long or if it is a real problem lol, anyways, winner can chose now: http://i.imgur.com/eqR8OeS.png http://i.imgur.com/yv3fwDg.png

You don't grow though... although people were tempted once to create some mutagenic sups though. The relation weight/height is important... i've never ben a good Tycoon analyst, but as you mentioned possible advantages - usually this topic came up int he past when it came to undersized grapplers stepping up a wc to face taller/bigger strikers, especially in the counter takedown period.

I think it's good that the option is there, but that it is the duty of the orgs to keep things straight. In some situations it's pretty handy though, for example if you want to bring up a nice 135 project, often you lack a solid/fun weightclass for the early beginnings. When they are "ready", there is always a hotspot.

KAISER Avatar #7 (AUCTION) http://i.imgur.com/wIDUh7P.png KAISER Avatar #8 (AUCTION) http://i.imgur.com/eqR8OeS.png http://i.imgur.com/xUO3WV4.png (Can't decide if i prefer the HW or the slimed down Latifi version lol, i leave that up to you) __________________________________________________________________________ Deadline: 48h from now (10min sniper protection/DL extension) Starting bid: 50k

I watched Hateful 8 lately, just heard it's garbage from most people (and i highly value the opinions of many of them)... well to cut a long story short - i HIGHLY enjoyed the movie lol, i think it was awesome. I get that many have problems to arrange themselves with such a setting and all the voluntary limitations and abandonments the movie lays up on itself though. I'm not saying it's some smartass meta layer thing which people don't get, not at all. It's just a grim/raw... stage play in a way and at some points i think for some it is a relief how it breaks with certain filmmaking patterns they have internalized. I liked the whole intense atmosphere. Had a great time watching. 8,5/10

Sold, thanks a lot! I have 2 really neat new ones in the making currently, so have an eye on this thread or follow me on this Buzz thing, i'll post them later today. By no later than weekend i will host another raffle, too, might be a seperate KAISER promo this time where also the winner does not have to pay something, maaaybe it will be included in KAISER's Cross #10 (not sure how many of you guys remember those lol, always were fun)... but not sure if i get my ass up to create a new edition.

I really like the new album - guess some of the old fans are not too happy about Polica losing some of their rawness and pace though. No effects on the singer's voice anymore, me gusta, although it was a great fit on the first two albums... some of the songs, especially "Fish" now kinda have this Portishead feeling.

Alright, i don't have the necessary skills needed to come up with something for professional use (nor do i have knowledge about copyright/trademark stuff)), so let's ignore the 2 Mio thing, you've always been a gentleman here and i might can help with some ideas at least. Some thoughts on this: - Colour pattern: i'd suggest something "clinical"/professional, but calm/comforting, in itself a hopeful contrast. I like this blue/green here. Soft, positive colours. - Problematic for a logo is that you have much info there, you know, "RDN/Talk to Troy/Nutrition & Health Services", that's quite a lot and the danger is there that the "emotional effect" i explained above gets lost, that it gets hectic, squashed and it just backfires this way. My advice would be, go with the "TTT" in an abstract form. - ... and two things come to my mind there, again the "emotional effect" thing, marketing'ish. Two ways. Either the "T"s support and back each other, like the middle "T" carries the others or the they form an unit in a way that it creates something new out of it. My idea is some kind of mix/inbetween here... the "T"s do not really carry each other, nothing new gets created really (i tried, it has to be something involving the triangle where the "T"s meet)... they become a unit though. It at least transports the integral/holistic approach your company has. - The font... well, that's easy imo. Take something classic, like they use in the medical sector, but light aaand with a pinch of finesse. Again, professional/comforting/hope - and the finesse part (like, some soft curvature in a classic font setting) makes it less "we help you, poor schmock, we know many terms in latin" but more "we have the expertise, together we can do this and make things better". http://i.imgur.com/uMvyLCw.png The text part could be here, too... maybe even better, more handy shape Edit: The "T" on the right could be grey, too (plus the underline and/or services then). Three colours is a bit much, but grey would do the trick plus the two other colours aren't pushy at all.

All good, thanks for both generous offers, guy! Great to see you're still around. I might be mistaking, but Seppo was the first customer at KAISER 1.0 (Tokyo) AND 2.0 (Amsterdam, partnered with Sauna Fights there, i had a nice midlevel org in between called RISE in the break, later we went to LA for our longterm Ascenison partnership). Found something lately... which shows he obviously just bought the first batch with the intention to support haha, ahhh, good times. This is KAISER #1: http://i.imgur.com/xyxXfrv.png

The Ganjaman haha, good times, mon! Great to see you return, i myself came back 2 weeks ago! Let me know if i can help in any way, sadly not too many of the old EFC boys around (although i highly expect returns from one or the other).

http://i.imgur.com/ijeTO4T.png Congrats, Mr. O'Sullivan, enjoy the avatar and send me the 50k after it got accepted! Thanks to the others for participating, keep an eye on this thread for more raffles like this one in the future next to the auctions.

Under an hour left to join the raffle for this avatar, the draw very likely will happen shortly after the DL, but can't promise: http://36.media.tumblr.com/2946794b3c626530a941332c05bc88b9/tumblr_o3u21vb99K1vn33tuo1_250.png Ticket holders so far: 1.
