What is it that you need for a custom avatar these days? Is the time-since-registration thing still in effect, or is it just the 500 posts thingy?

I like the avatar and the meaning. 
Actually you have blocked out all the stars on the aussie flag, so its not as recognisable. Maybe you should alter some of the flames so everyone can see which flag you are burning.

Cali: I wanted it to look like the flag is already partially burnt. note that the holes are exactly where the stars should be.

That's just the antialiasing at work... your 'pure' blue gets deformed when you downsize it (giving more shades at the edges), because it gives the optical illusion that it is more round. If you want to recreate that, you should make the picture at a higher resolution, and downsize it with antialiasing selected. That should do it.
If you really want different shades, you should take bigger rings, it is not possible to have this in just a few pixel wide rings.

And as this is my 500th post, I'll give this thread the premiere on my avatar
I've got a whole bunch of them ready, but this one seems to be the best one to start with. If you don't like it, just give a yell 
Now I can finally go looking for the place to upload mine...

maybe there should be an annual afro-day when everyone is forced to put afros on their avatars! or maybe this is just one of those "great ideas" you get at two in the morning.

TKG, do you have a large pic of that laying around? When you'd do it on the small version, some parts will still remain there. I'll give it a try to show you what I mean... in a minute

As Apolyton doesn't let you both delete, and upload another image in the same edit, here should be the new one

[edit: never mind me, I'm still figuring out how these forums work. I think I've got the wrong type of gif. image deleted again]

Finally! TKG, if you have a bigger picture, it should be possible to clean the edges up, now they are all smudgy.

BTW: quite funny that this thread was originally directed at Sirotnikov, but he hasn't posted in it yet
