I feel pretty gutted because I've lost my olde faithful Halloween and Christmas avatars. :( They were backed up on my webspace, but my dad cancelled it and I didn't think to save them anywhere else... How clever am I.

Does CC.com have users' avatars backed up anywhere on the server, or is it a case of me creating some new ones?

I just skimmed through backed up CC.com pages on archive.org but unfortunately they only have your current icon.

I think I probably had them all backed up on my old computer but I no longer have it. And I checked on the server space but I wrote the icon uploading script so that everytime you upload a new icon it replaces your old one.

So unfortunately I don't think I have a copy anywhere, but it seems like we should be able to track them down somehow.

Thanks for trying. :)

It's not the end of the world if they can't be recovered, but they have a sentimental value because I had them for so long.

It's really annoying too because when I search for your profile on archive.org it remembers the pages from both October and December, but on both pages your icon is a broken image.

I was so close to finding them! But alas they weren't preserved. :\ I'll keep my eye out for them though.

Thanks, I'm going to keep looking as well, haven't given up yet. I wonder what the chances are of Huffamoose having them backed up somewhere... Probably pretty slim, it was a good 4 years ago. :\

It really is amazing how time flies. When I look back at Creatures community stuff I can't believe how long ago some things happened. :'(

I want my old avatar back too. the one with the whale and the big letters "kill". At some point is spontaneously changed to whatever it is i have there now. As far as i know.


Yes, I'm the forum [devil]... Any questions?

Which is strange because I don't think I changed it to whatever it is now. ;) I know I personally prefer the whale killing one (which I created).

No, you don't have to do that. That would be cool though.

ES, that is insane! Kudos to you though. :D

I had a brainwave earlier - I should ask Data about my missing avatars, I think he backed them up for me once.

now uhhh when i said i miss my avatar that Rascii made, what it meant was "hint hint, make me another kill the whales av cause i would never make an av like that myself but its okay if someone else makes one and puts it there."

...geez, men and taking hints...

yay thankyou! I'm so cool, lol

ummmm it started because in high school i liked telling people to Save the Whales because the whales are people too. And you thought it would be funny to claim i'm killing them rather than advocating their saving.

maddox is where i draw the line. The guy is such a tool. I'm majorly censoring myself calling him that, I've got worse in my repertoire.

back on topic.

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

oh, i didn't bother answering cause i thought Dreamnorn handled it already.

okay I'll reiterate... Maddox is the dude who made that site.

(he posts vulgar and ridiculous "criticisms" of stuff just to get attention and kids in high school that don't know any better think he's cool and read the crap he writes. I don't respect him in any shape or form.)

*Sweeps off the dust and cobwebs*

I've found them! YAY! :D

I think Data is now my new personal hero, he had them backed up on one of his old drives. Just in time for Halloween. Happy now. :)

Toobad some people just come and go. Don't know what happened to make once active users (dreamnorn,karias.) stop visisting.

So yeah... Um... I found my avatars = mission accomplished.

I'll just make my own #self-important face# and lock this then, if this is how we're doing things now. ;)
