ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted October 27, 2017 Author ArenaNet Staff Share Posted October 27, 2017 Shirlias & Just a flesh wound -- You're welcome. Nothing warms my heart like aiding in the celebration of the best holiday of the year! I think our graphic artist, Christy, did a marvelous job with these, as she did with previous avatars. notebene -- Yours will be fine. The Halloween Quaggan is a year-round favorite. Alga -- We may have some ideas for more in the future. :) Donari -- One of my personal faves. Sesbog -- The background of the avatar? Let's not get carried away, now. ;) Shirlias -- I get the feeling it's a pretty easy process but if you wanted to share how to do that, I bet other forum members would be grateful you did!

Thank you Gaile, I saw the office pictures on Twitter - you guys seem to be really in the spirit of Halloween, it's great. I hope you guys have, had and still having a good time.

ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted October 27, 2017 Author ArenaNet Staff Share Posted October 27, 2017 I agree! The Mad Moon is soooo beautiful!

ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted October 27, 2017 Author ArenaNet Staff Share Posted October 27, 2017 Oh yeah, DC, it's pretty festive around here. And it promises only to get more so next week. Can't wait! Thanks for the good wishes. Between fun stuff like adding Halloween forum images during the day, and playing Labyrin... I mean GW2 at night, it's been a blast! ;) > @DakotaCoty.5721 said: > Thank you Gaile, I saw the office pictures on Twitter - you guys seem to be really in the spirit of Halloween, it's great.

itchyeyebrows.1520 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Can anyone share how to change the avatar on the app? Edit: must go to full site. But know I don't know how to get back to the Moblie app version. Edit: scroll all the way to the bottom and should say go back to Moblie site.

Kichwas.7152 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Still looking for a non-white human or even norn female avatar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kichwas.7152 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Hmmm... can't edit my own posts... so I'll just finish the comment in a second... We're in PoF... we have all these Elonans finally back in the game. So let us have more of them as avatars other than just one human male. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donari.5237 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 You know what avatar we're missing? Lord Faren. And there are so many options for him, including his look of surprised dismay as he falls into the giant pit in his attempt to rescue the Queen ... we need Farens. And Elonans, as Kichwas says. I agree with more Elonan representation in the avatars. (If, one day, it somehow transpires that in-game target portraits can be used, I predict plenty of Elonan avatars).
