I’m having a hard time deciding on the picture that I want to use for my profile... can you guys help? Here are my options:
(Morningmist by @Skysun - my current profile picture)
(Morningmist by @Nightmist - my old profile picture, I hadn’t clearly set in stone what Morningmist looks like, so some things are missing here, like the feathers tipped in black and the black points)
Update- @Nightmist edited it:
(Aquacloud by @Skysun - She isn’t my profile name, but she is my main character. This picture also shows one of my inventions, the starry place.)
(Morningmist by @Iceberry )
I love all of these for different reasons, and I really can‘t pick one. Which one do you guys like best?
oooooof, idk, sorry!!!!!!!!!
HMMMM... let me think...
Honestly, I like your original, but idk they all look awesome. Maybe try them each out and see which one you like better?
If you WANT I can draw Morningmist for you, too?
Only if you want!
I like the idea of trying them all out, and which original do you like best? Skysun’s or Nightmist’s?
I like them ALL I can't vote for just one, sorry!
I won't vote because I'll vote for my own XD
That fine! Maybe you can tell me which ones you like about the one that isn’t yours?
@Morningmist Hey, I was wondering, what's the starry place?
Oof, this is quite the quandary you got there. All the options look soooooooo good, but I guess I'll try to give my feedback on each option:
Option 1: I really like this one. @Skysun did a great job, and I love the pose, the colors are on point, and it has a background (not that I have anything against pictures with no backgrounds, I just think it gives it a little extra flare especially if you use for a profile pic). The main negative about it, is that it's already your profile pic and (as I'm guessing by the purpose of this post) you're wanting to change things up a but with a fresh picture.
Option 2: Again, I really like this one. I am seriously in love with the style @Nightmist used, and I have to say one of my favorite parts of it is how simple it is, which I think is a big plus when it comes to profile pic. However, because, as you said, the coloration isn't up-to-date, that is diffidently a big negative because your profile pic is kinda the face of your account, and if you've got it displaying contradicting information, it might get confusing.
Option 3: @Skysun did a really good job with this picture also, and I TOTALLY love the starry background. But, a negative that I say this one has is the fact that it's not Morningmist. I always think it's confusing when people have one OC as their profile pic then another as the account name, simply because I start associating the way the character looks with that name.
Option 4: This picture is seriously awesome. @Iceberry did an awesome job with the pose, and I think it makes this picture stand out from the others since there's a lot more action being conveyed through the image. But on the flip side, I'm going to pick on the background. Right now, there are a lot of active people on the MB that have white backgrounds in their profile pics, which I have nothing wrong with, but it has the protentional to make your account stand out less. I mean, idk about you, but when I scan through notifications or am looking at a comment or a post, most of the time I barely glace at the account name and most of my attention goes to the profile pic. So when there are several accounts with similar color schemes, I tend to get them all jumbled up, and have a hard time remembering who is who.
.... and yes.... I apparently managed to write a whole essay debating this....
I'm just not very good at backgrounds XD
@Iceberry eh, like I said, it doesn't really matter, there's nothing wrong with white/solid colored backgrounds. I only said something since I was really struggling to come up with negatives on any of the drawings XD
Oh, I didn’t realize my drawing was up to date.... I don’t remember her original description having the black points and black-tipped feathers, but I could fix that for you very easily if you’d like!!! :D
Here’s the updated version:
Thank you! I changed her description after you drew this picture to give her more black, so she looked a bit like Star as well.
@Morningmist No problem! :D
They ALL look awesome! Though I shouldn't vote, LOL!! Because I may or may not be biased, XD
