The story of your avatar - EdenMaster - 25th April 2005
I call it Spinny Shiggy, and I'm the one who made the original, so I win ;).
The story of your avatar - Great Rumbler - 25th April 2005
Yay!
The story of your avatar - Geno - 25th April 2005
And I agreed before you gave the final say, so I win too!
Here's a couple w00t beers to a pair of winners! *drink*

And I typed it that way before you!

Okay, I lied. But I think it's Spinny Shiggy. Unless you want to refer to it by its filename. Then it's SpinnyShiggy.gif.
Yup.
Actually, the filename is spinshiggy2.gif, or spinshiggy1.gif, actually, there are two versions :).
spinshiggy1 was bigger and shiggy's head was the same size as it was in the original image. I made spinshiggy1 first just to see how it would work. At the time I unveiled it, avatar size was limited to 100x100 so I had to shrink it down, making spinshiggy2. Once the avatar size was increased to 150x150, I started using spinshiggy1 again, since I could :D. That's the lesson on Shiggy for today

I didn't have an avatar for the longest time, so one night Weltall and I put our heads together to create meatsim. I told him what it should be like and he actually put it together.
The dancing feet are stolen from an animation Ryan found, and the 'Meat' has dozens of fonts being used, along the sides the spinning question marks dance and at the bottom "Lick me" scrolls by. The meat was found on Goggle image search and of course we all know what Meatsims are, from one of my most favorite games of all time Perfect Dark; The most stupidest setting you can put your sims on. :D
Then suddenly Ryan and I found some things. They were beautiful. The ghetto booty slammer and the Benis Avatars. But i've loved my meatsim the most.

I change my avatar about every six months to a year, based on something I find interesting or humorous enough to use.
The story of your avatar - EdenMaster - 27th April 2005
I always wondered where Meatsim came from, now I can truly rest peacefully.
Oh wait. Now I need to know the deal with the ghetto booty slammer. Where the hell do you find stuff like that?
The story of your avatar - Geno - 28th April 2005
Yeah, and I'm not even going to ask about the one next to it.
If you had posted that six years ago, I'd probably have said something like, "Hey, you faggot, you posted a picture of a dick! That proves you're gay!" Weltall can probably give you the exact words. He has everything stashed away. :)

Indeed.
The story of your avatar - EdenMaster - 30th April 2005
Remember this one? This took me a LONG time to make, but well worth it, I think :D
The story of your avatar - Great Rumbler - 1st May 2005
Oh man, that's awesome! :D
The story of your avatar - Geno - 1st May 2005
That one's the best one so far. :D

Getting all the heads turned the right way, resizing some of them, making sure they were all stacked from bottom to front...yeah that was way too much effort for a shiggy :).
I think that was the last Shiggy I made, since after that, I was sick of them :)
The story of your avatar - Geno - 1st May 2005
I bet you were. :)
The story of your avatar - EdenMaster - 2nd May 2005
You may also notice that Shiggies in the back line up better with their necks and bodies than they do in the front :D.
A sign that I just wanted to finish the damn thing :)
The story of your avatar - Dark Jaguar - 2nd May 2005
I just want to find the Shiggies I made. I only made a few... My fave was and still is Willy Wonka Shiggy. I just thought "hmm, who can make a rainbow and make the children smile? Wonka Shiggy! That's who!". You just KNOW Nintendo's headquarters is some crazy go nuts factory of fun where anything can happen. They probably have it filled with a bunch of toadstooly people running about doing work and singing about what a horrible person you are as you die from stupidity. I GONNA GO THERE! Like, when Nintendo announces 5 special golden Zelda game disks when the new Zelda comes out.

...
I like to archive stuff.
The story of your avatar - Dark Jaguar - 3rd May 2005
I forgot about the other one, but there's Wonka Shiggy!
...
Did you archive my old "Search for Great Rumbler" comics by chance?
I'm basically going to milk you for all you're worth.

My favorite was Shiggy With Lots of Excess Fat Hanging Off Of Him In An Odd Way.

Just fix the links (copy-paste to address bar-change address to tcforums.com-Go).
This page wouldn't be too hard to fix (and link somewhere on the current forum, like the Comics forum...), that should be done. It's a big pain to deal with the changed address thing and there's a lot less here than the various old-TC-archive folders so it'd be a lot smaller job...
The story of your avatar - Dark Jaguar - 4th May 2005
Hahaha, awesome! I had no idea we actually still had all of that RIGHT on the site! I'll go ahead and fix those pages later.
Anyway, for now I'll just post the 3rd shiggy I made...

Out of all the ones I made, this is one of my favorites:
The most advanced Shiggy creation tool to date, SHIG SHOP PRO!

Okay, I fixed all the links to point to the right place. The only issue now is making a link on the main page so someone months from now won't have to search endlessly just to find this link (by the way, if we are lazy, keep in mind the key word to find this thread will be... flippernoodles ). The only reason I'm not is that I believe someone mentioned they actually use some specific preset format in some editor to design the page, and I don't want to screw it up for them.

Made a post with the link in the most appropriate place: the Comics Forum.
