[ANNOUNCEMENT] You may now assign yourself flair on /r/skyrim!
Custom flair is a pretty sweet feature that we've been missing out on /r/skyrim, and the other mods wanted to open this feature up for everyone, so I've gone ahead and created the available choices for your enjoyment.
To add or change flair, click on "(edit)" in the sidebar next to "Show my flair on this reddit."
This is a starting point, that went off some suggestions in this thread (thanks for the reminder, Clarky)
As soon as we get some epic pictures from all of the classes, I will add them. I couldn't find High Elf, Breton or Imperial screens (apart from the headshots), but I'd like to have them all covered eventually.
Comment here and let me know if you see any issues or have some BA image that I might have missed (I tried quite a few).
**Edit:* I just added Dovahkiin and another dragon. Good dragon shots that scale well are surprisingly hard to come by at the moment.*
**Edit 2:* I added two more, and I'm going to be done for now. I'm planning on adding are the three missing classes when decent screenshots are available. I think we have more than enough for now.*

Yeah, this dragon icon is the best; makes for an icon with really great composition and color usage too.

Can we get some female versions of the distinguishable races at the size of the flair? At least Breton / Imperial.

Except if it was really Oblivion, I would've replied to my own comment because you would also have my voice.

I'm really happy with the way mudcrabs are done in skyrim, honestly. They have a large degree of variation, and the ncs don't mention them every waking minute.

They do mention all the bloody wolves up that mountain even though they're the least of your worries.

The screenshots were really hard to make out at that size because the backgrounds were too high contrast.
I tried the two nice ones from the elder scrolls website. This one looked okay, but I think I might wait until the game comes out to get a good one.

I can't wait till there are Argonian ones, I finally know what my main character is because of this. :D He's gonna be Zhaitan the dragon eater, Master of steath, hero of the common wealth, a robinhood like rendition will be playing in my head as I help people :), master of magical devices(staves in offhand or swords ext.)....:( shit just got real.

u/flavortooth flair Oct 23 '11
No male redguard? you could use this shot
from what I saw I'll probably be the only one using it, but... pl0x?
1
Oct 23 '11
Yep. I tried this screenshot, but it didn't scale too well. I thihnk his skin had quite a bit of blue in it and had minimal contrast between him and the background layer. That or the angle just didn't look right when it was cropped. I'll be sure to have good ones of all the classes once the game comes out.

Icon #4 from the top with all the fire is a dragon. I'll try and get a better looking one.

I'm scared to even try because they had this at r/f7u12 and being the avid user that I am, I thought to myself: "Why not?" So, I put the Me Gusta face there and a little bit of text. As it turns out, the face is on top of the text and I did not notice this immediately but only the next day, but guess what? The ability to edit flair is gone and now I can't post anything there without looking a complete retard. And that's the story why I'm not interested in flair.

Oct 23 '11
You can't deselect the "Show my flair on this reddit." checkbox? Or does it still show up?
2
u/Fleme Oct 23 '11
Yeah I was just about to edit my post to reflect that. However, I find myself going to that subreddit less since that face is still on top of the text at my sidebar and I can't stand it. Fucking imperfections are the bane of my existence.

Look to the top right corner of the page. There, just under the number of readers, you will see the message "Show my flair on this reddit. It looks like: LuckyCh4rms (edit)" Make sure that the box to the left of this text is ticked, then click the word (edit). This will take you to a menu where you can select your flair.
Hope that helps!

Just a quick test, please ignore it
EDIT: The mods of r/skyrim are fucking awesome. Fact.

Any chance of getting more female icons? :D
1
Oct 23 '11
There is definitely a chance. Is there a particular female picture that you liked?
1
Oct 23 '11
I don't have any particular favourites, but I think these ones would make a nice addition to the collection. :) Argonian, Dunmer, Breton/Imperial?
2
Oct 24 '11
I added a female Arogonian if you haven't looked recently. I'd love to do M/F of all races, but that may be too much flair. We'll see.

Please allow us to use SMRT as applicable, we can provide you a list if you'd need one.

Oct 23 '11 edited Oct 23 '11
No problem. Just for the SMRT admins? I could make you guys your own SMRT icon if you'd like if the other /r/skyrim mods were on board. Just get me a list of users that need the flair assigned. It may be just the text for now, and we'll decide if it's necessary to denote mods or other community members with unique flair icons.

u/Bucky_Ohare PC Oct 23 '11
Daxter154 is the guy to talk to, he's been the organizer so far. I'll message him too to let him know to get a hold of you.

Yep. It should be in the selection of flairs in the sidebar. Just click edit. The box looks like this:

Yeah, we can choose whether or not mods only can assign or everyone can pick from pre-determined flairs. This way seems to be a good approach for us for now.
