I'd like that, even if it was just the heads. I think the redheaded Dutch barmaid would look great in a longcoat!

Hey, I've got a couple of pics that could work for the Lady Pirates. They fall into the pixel size required, but would need some compression, as they take up just a bit too much disk space.

I stole them, so if you want them, who am I to say no. Very Happy



or maybe:



How wouuld you like to board these ladies Frigates?

We have had a couple of requests for female body parts for the pirate avatar thingy over the couple of years that it's been up. However, compared to the amount of work involved, there aren't that many people who would use it.

(also, all the current options come from the Piratopedia pictures of all the pirates - all in the same position and attitude and thus relatively easy to cut into pieces, recolour etc. - the barmaids etc. are not provided in exact same positions and only a female head stuck on top of a male body might look, well, disturbing)

And seeing what Asclepius has found, I think there are better choices for females out there already! Wink

Hey auspicious4,
Don't know if this was something you'd like, putting her head on one of the available avatars wouldn't look that good. The head would be pretty much unrecognizable,so thought that this might be better.

Hmm... well... I finally got a (temporary trial) image program, since I had some other graphic stuff to do anyhow. Soo... I made my own avatar, but it doesn't seem to be showing up. Could be something I missed, could be a time delay issue... ? I know this isn't the place for asking techie questions, but I want you, loki, to know I'm not ignoring you!

That is all. : )

No problem, you might want to try out GIMP, it's a free graphics program( not a trial). Just search google for gimp, that's what I used for the avatar. Sometimes the new avatar won't show up till you clear your cache, though I see your using a store bought avvy now. Razz
