Just lost ten minutes watching Belfast Boy's avatar!!!

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

TOP F*CKING WORK!! 8) 8) 8)

Do explain how you got that little beauty up and running, BB. It even excels TS's Avatar talents. :shock:

Or did TS have a hand (Shandy? :wink: ) in it?

Just reminds me how GOOD Bobby was... 8)

Wasn't that one of his first goals after coming back from an injury.

Good innit :?: 8) a friend of mine on this board no less (who shall remain nameless at this time for fear of bein inundated :wink: ) did all the nifty stuff, all I had to do was find a decent quality vid that conveniently had all three goals that I was lookin for which I found on YouTube!
Now for the good stuff - he used a site to reconfigure the files from an .flv to a .gif file which allows you edit them and then get a site that will host them, get a link and then use the link to offsite url, feature on the avatar section in your profile and Bobby's your uncle (no pun intended :P )
So hopefully that explanation is right and we'll be able to do our own from now on and along with post counts that'll be another thing we can have cock fights over :D

You said it bro, it's always hard to pick out one Arsenal player from the many legends we've had at the club over the years, but jesus our lucky No.7 must come pretty close, definately one of my personal favourites!
Almost the complete footballer, born to play the game, a brilliant footballing brain, he was an out and out, deceptively quick, flair player who loved to attack, a scorer of great goals as well as a great goalscorer, he hardly ever wasted possession, and dare I say it played the game with a certain romance ( did someone say D'artagnan :wink: ), which altho didn't win him the players player certainly won him the football writer's award!
To think, if I remember rightly he only cost us £6million and gave us crucial double figure goals and assists each season and would've easily have beat fat Frank's record had he not suffered that cruel knee injury, just into the second half of the Magic Hat double season against Newcastle!
As someone said earlier he'll be sorely missed :!:

I made the avatar for BB.
3 years of studying computing and that's about all I picked up. Still, time well spent I think.

I'd be happy to make avatars for anyone else who'd want one. Just send me a pm - preferably with a youtube link in it and I'll do it.

I'm with you so far. Now just repeat everything after "Now for the good stuff..." :wink: :wink: :wink:

Top work Rilo. 8) When I get a chance I will take up your kind offer. 8)

And fair play to BB for letting you come forward of your own accord. 8)

Not like when I landed poor old TS in it by telling everyone he did my avatar!! :? :oops:

haha yeah there are a few too many in there. I'll do you one, but it's going to take a while to choose the best, there's far too many. Giz an hour or so

I tell you what mate, I've made you the DADDY of avatars.
I got a bit carried away because I have so many favourite DB goals.
