Here you go, Ed. (Not linking as pics, because not cropped to 256x512 yet.) I can crop things if you like one of them.

This picture is already in the gallery. Undead section, unfortunately... I've just found out that's actually a Rusalka and is a nymph. Not that she looks like one... I'll move it, but if you like it, use it meanwhile!
As for the Hussein picture, I'll make one in the correct (and larger) size.

Hello. Given my predicament of finding pictures of green-haired ladies that I am fond of and are appropriate for my character I would be very appreciative if this was included in our portrait gallery.
It is in fact very stellar. Also, adorable. :wub:

My gratitude a thousandfold. However for a larger version, perhaps we need to find a higher resolution version?

I looked for one myself. It's not perfect, but still good.

@Sinlinara: rules are set for no anime and photos, sorry. Would any of these be of help?

@rapsalm: I'd avoid squeezed pictures too, sorry. I'd also have no idea what that girl could be...

Original pic was a tiefling, but the pic was way longer horizontal than vertical. No sweat.

Sin: grab photoshop, do a pixel-by-pixel cutout of the edge of the hair on a picture you lilke, and then use Hue Adjustment to turn it green...

...or maybe that's just me.

Neerepha, I like all of those pictures and I'm really glad that you went out of your way to try to find something that I'd like. They're all really pretty and absolutely gorgeous. :wub: Among them, though, I think only the second one is one that I would consider using for Aleis, but it leaves me feeling a bit conflicted because of the heterochromia and the hair-highlights. I would definitely favor it over my current one but I don't quite feel satisfied either.


If you will allow me to gripe briefly, however, I would like to comment that said rule is dumb and arbitrary as it does not depend on the content of the art itself but merely the style and medium that it is drawn in. We don't seem to hold objections based on any other merit and all of the other requirements, specifically those of quality and depicting of a fantasy character, have their exceptions.
Anyways. That's my gripe. Please disregard me, I know you don't make the rules and I really don't want to be a bother. I just wanted to be a bitch for a moment. ^_^


And Ceremorph, I've actually tried doing that with some free art software in the past. The result was... not very pretty. ^^;; I might get better results if I actually had Photoshop but most of my money is going towards getting my PC back together and I'm rather opposed to torrenting it.
I think I might consider commissioning something when I have my problems sorted out, but for now I'm going to just... flail around ineffectually.
