Post by: lookatme on July 10, 2003, 11:48:25 PM
It's worth a laugh

seriously

Especially for a guy that used to use Triple H as an Icon

He must've had an operation to remove the horns and tail.

Rick Powers is my idol.  A hero to gamers everywhere.

Power to the....err...Powers

I've seen better than a picture.  At Wrestlemania Rick was shown on the titantron during a Fan Axxess promotion with his replica WWE belt on his shoulder yelling at the top of his lungs.  I laughed so hard I nearly peed my pants!  All the people in my section were wondering what the hell I thought was so funny!

HHH is pretty much the exact opposite of Rick in terms of appearance though it's a pretty good match for his online hard-ass personality.  My avatar doesn't match me in either appearance or personality.  I just think it looks cool.

My avatar matches my appearance perfectly- Self Portrait of a Rodent.

I saw a picture of him a while ago.  Heh, comming to a nerdy message board to make fun of a picture always seemed like an odd idea....;-)

I have not had the good fortune to see a picture of his.  Alas.

Tell Rick that HHH holds other wrestlers down and you'll quickly see how.

lol.  I have been toying with the idea of reporting this thread to a moderator just so I can see that happen.  I just don't know how I can tell these people to shut up without looking like a suck-up though.  I have an honest respect for Rick, and I am sure that if I did report this thread, it would look like I was just trying for some brownie points or something like that.  I tend to go way out of my way to make sure that I never get brownie points in real life, and I am not much different online.

Same here, brownie points and all I figure he'll see this thread eventually, and then we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

haha.  I tried telling someone once about avatars not showing up and it was all for nothing.  I know how you feel though.  RED X's are evil and ugly.
Title: Have you ever seen a picture of Rick Powers?
Post by: KnowsNothing on July 12, 2003, 01:26:46 PM
Red x's rule.  Plus, Hostile's red x is small and perfectly centered, it's beautiful.  Oh yeah, and Hostile complimented my icon before

Red x's all the way!
Title: Have you ever seen a picture of Rick Powers?
Post by: Hostile Creation on July 12, 2003, 02:39:13 PM
Yeah, I know, and I've tried to fix it several times and have tried using several different avatars.  I can register an angelfire account and take the time to get a completely new website for just that purpose, if that makes you happy, though

It's done.  Hope you're happy (Sorry, knowsnothing, about having to change the red X.  I liked it, too)
Title: Have you ever seen a picture of Rick Powers?

 I might have to get one now.  Can you tell me where you got yours? they're uber-rare.
Title: Have you ever seen a picture of Rick Powers?
Post by: Hostile Creation on July 12, 2003, 06:55:07 PM
I'll try to find my old red X, but I'm having trouble right now.  You may want to consider keeping your current, awesome avatar, though

Hostile, you know you could of just gone to hostmysig.com and set up an account

I don't mind starting up a new site entirely.  Heck, I might even do something with it.

Ed's cool.  Sandman is, too (my avatar).  Only comic worth reading, in my opinion.  I'm not big on superheroes or people that deal out mass amounts of killingness or manga.

But yes.  That is the answer to your question.  THAT.

That's it?  Not half as bad as you got me hyped into thinking.  Nice shirt, too.

I wanna Metroid shirt. All I've got are these damn knock-off brand names. Mango? WHAT THE HELL IS MANGO?

I've still got a Super Mario Bros. 3 shirt, too. If I ripped it enough, I may be able to get my head in.

I have an Illusion of Gaia shirt that I got when I bought the game (came packaged in with it.)  Rayman 2 shirt (same as with IoG)  I don't remember if I have any other's and too lazy to look either.

I don't have any Nintendo shirts, I just play the games.

But heck, I might have to get some eventually, just to show my console spirit.

Nintendo should get back in the clothing industry. They had a mean lookin' Donkey Kong Country spray jacket thing when the game launched. Me wantee.

I used to have a Wing Commander IV T Shirt that was pretty cool.  But it's gone now.  

I was at work the other day, and a guy came in wearing a shirt with 3 different Mario sprites on the front.  I thought that was quite cool, and complemented him on it, and he told me he had a blue one with the Nintendo logo on the front at home.  I imagine it was similar to the ones that the booth babes were wearing at E3 2002.
