I like, but I wish it had a different, unique feel instead of looking like it comes from Ctrl-Alt-Delete or Penny-Arcade.
It is almost as if all gaming cartoons have to have this look, and that's a shame. Where's the diversity?

It does come from Ctrl-Alt-Delete....Tim Buckley did it for us. :)

That's one of the things I like about the EA logo, it looks unique. Honestly, this is just... too bland to be any sort of wallpaper. Avatars, maybe... but not a wallpaper.

Man, how can so many people have a case of the Mondays? You don't have to use it as your wallpaper.
I love it and think it's cool that Tim went to the trouble of doing this for us.

Like I said, I like. I just wish there was a little more variety in the gaming cartoon universe.
Hey, at least it isn't anime-looking.

It has that CTRL-ALT-DEL feel (obviously), but I just think it's great looking. The amount of details in each of the characters is really nice and impressive, IMO.

Especially all that detail on the awesomely cool Kefkataran hunk. Rrrowl! </brownnosing>

I'll have to agree with the non-red people, while the avatars look nice they don't make a great wallpaper. I know, then I don't have to use it. yata yata.
I just think it's funny how much all you reds are pimping it out. :P

If we're pimping it at all, it's likely because we appreciate the work that went into it and are not influenced by any sort of historical indifference to CAD.

Now that we have the CoH version, we need the CoV version, muahahaha. :-)
If you have that many guys as your wallpaper on your computer, it better be the village people.

Looks fine to me. Personally, I would like to see a poster that says "Evil Avatar: Daily Gaming News With and Attitude..." And a picture of a very nerdy looking individual jumping down with a flaming sword that chops a troll in half. Now that's a background I would use. That or a unicorn dancing in a candy cane forest.

It's understandable why they are pimping it, because they are on it. I'd probably do the same thing too, but I see no desire for me to have pictures of EA staff on my desktop. I think it would be more suited for the EA staff then readers. Now if it was a awesome game related EA desktop then I might be tempted.

Slow news day anyone? Everyone must be busy playing Prey.
Cool avatars. I suspect that the only people that set this as their wallpaper are those whose name is red...over there...on the left.

You know, I hadn't noticed before, but goddamn, he's a hottie.

Oooh! I like that one! Guys, can we get that one?

Hehe, the Cad drawings in anime form? I bet I could have that by the end of the night, it'd be interesting :).

This doesnt seem up to Tim Buckley's quality. I usually like his set pieces that he does but this one I just dont like, it looks like something he did in 2004, when his art wasnt quite the same quality he does now.

Plus news is slow.

Where's Jetherik? Or what's-his-name... the Red Name that nobody knows...

That would be Gideon Ransom, I believe.
Jetherik didn't submit a photograph in time and it's not possible to include Gideon. Don't ask - my ears are still ringing.

That's his name.
I still think that Gideon's just the nickname Evil gave the server that the site is hosted on. That, or he's Kef's mic.
And Jetherik is actually the EvAv eye. I saw him on the street one day and I swear, he looked just like the logo.

Gideon's a real fella!
And Jetherik being the Evil Avatar eye is a possibility... I shall say no more.

I was not actually complaining or anything... I just thought it was funny.
I like you guys too much. There is no such thing as too much of you people.
