I'm pretty sick of these avatars.
The text's grayish colors throw off the background colors, the shine looks boring, and they're so simple that they make me mad. I made one myself in less than two minutes. If roundheads weren't annoying enough, these are.

To tell you exactly what I did: I made a black layer, used a gradient on it (the gradient is the target-like thing), and put a shine and some text. The text effects I applied are showed.
Would The Worm like to make me an avatar? :D
Actually, I probably couldn't. My avatars take time and care. These do not.
@Gikon: That's a stupid point, then. Avatars should look nice, not so simple that they're annoying.
Take your damn Midol and get over it, just because you have the need for absolute perfection, you don't have to douche all over Gikon's thread. The avatars are simple and aesthetically pleasing, and it's not weather you can do better, it's cause we either can't, or don't feel like it. So gtfo and continue to boast how sweet you are at Photoshop, because no one gives a stuff.
