Enjoy the awesomeness that horseguy001 created for us.

I like it

Very cool! Yet, I can't help being the smart-aleck... Is that a staff I see the mage holding?

Awesome looking :) much better than old twisty face

I miss old twistyface D:

Beautiful!

Actually... That doesn't look bad! I'm pleasantly surprised!

That looks quite cool. :)

How can I look at the new login page when I got auto login?

log out and then refresh.

Or use any of the other URLs for the site, such as http://cb2.carnageblender.com, http://carnageblender.com or http://www.carnageblender.com ;)

cool...
at last some changes to the login page
great picture =)

r.i.p twisty 'face' mcgee

I demand twisty face being viewable at all times on a page of old log-in pics stores somewhere in this site.
CB has gone through enough changes without the old twisty face gone forever...
Or maybe you can make a changing log in pic thingy...
As in it changes from time to time or some other way...

Gimme back twisty faaace *sobs*

Since when did Mr Swirly become "twisty face" ? Show some respect for the recently departed!.

Nice change, looks more, uhm, different...

I suggest the only place we ever see Mr Swirly again is as Jon's user pic. Anything has got to be better than the "twisty face" face he's using at the moment ;)

Definitely was needed and the new pic is a hit. A+ horseguy001

pretty cool

Thanks for the positive feedback!

I think its awesome that Jon took this live for me :D

it looks great! thanks horseguy. :)

It clases with the red/grey but Good Work!

Cool!! Nice work HG!!! ;)

for the lame people:

But... awesome artwork!

thanks, but the only thing I actually drew is the fire familiar. Everything else is just texture work and lighting effects. I am not that good of an artist, as much as I wish I could draw that well.

Hey, that archer's wearing trousers!!!!! Elven LongJohns!!!

"Hey, that archer's wearing trousers!!!"

Does that mean we're getting pants next change month?

Very nice image.

I think the picture doesn't show in older firefox versions... I still see the red skull...

It got reverted because that was just a preview, it wasn't the fully original, completed image. See the other thread regarding the image.

umm...can someone post the preview image?

From hoseguy001's user page.

Very nice.

Great work! I hope Jon will award you in some way for this! ;-)

I hope Jon will award you in some way for this!

Jon is giving me the opportunity to actually leave a mark on the world of CB, I think thats an award in itself. I apologize for sounding cheesy :D

Update:

I am going over some sketches right now, nothing is uploaded yet though. This artists style has a slight anime influence, but its subtle. The characters are not going to look as "real" as they do in the sample picture, if you know what I mean. Once we get everything coloured and uploaded its going to look great :D

Thanks for being patient everyone.

Will the artist be credited? I'd prefer it.

I don't think any would be inclined to actually file legal suit against CB or Jon, but it feels better to at least include the original artist's name somewhere.

For sure she will be credited. I know her, we are working on this together. She knows that she is drawing art for use on this website.

Nice nice!

So good I said it twice! ;)
