The Mighty Thread of Avatar Cosplays

Quite a lot of us enjoy avatar cosplaying - either doing it ourselves or seeing it done!

This thread is for the discussion of avatar cosplaying (using items on Menewsha to make an avatar that resembles another person or character) and assisting people in making their avatar cosplay better. Please keep in mind that multiple submissions of the same character are welcome and encouraged - don't be afraid to do your own version of [insert popular character here].

And, yes - avatar edits are perfectly acceptable.

Rules
0) Obey Menewsha TOS/rules.
1) Be respectful of both other peoples' work and your own work.
Critique is welcome and encouraged. Comments like, "I don't like it." without explanations of what could be done are not.
2) I will not add "current" avatars. Meaning, don't say, "I'm wearing it", give me a link to a copy saved on a hosting service such as Photobucket, Tinypic, or even the Menewsha gallery service located in "My Account".
3) Using the form below is strongly encouraged! But as long as the right info is there, we'll be cool.

[b]HEY LOOK!!!![/b]
[img]-image goes here[/img]
[b]Credit:[/b] -which username you want to be credited-
[b]Character Name:[/b] -who is this character? If it is a specific version of the character, mention that too.-
[b]Source:[/b] -where is this character from? please be specific!-
[b]Notes:[/b] -anything else you'd like to mention. For instance, did you edit the layers or change a color or edit an item? Do you think your submission needs to have an entirely new category created?-

Hopefully, these are all the rules we need.
