I know I'm in the minority but I find it confusing when everyone looks the same. Not a fan.

I'm down for playoff avatars. It's cool to do something as a group like that. I'd happily help out if I had any design/art ability, but I don't.

As a suggestion, based on @ACC1224 's point, could they somehow include posters' normal avatar in it? That might be cool. And you could still tell who's who.

Pitch:

1st Picture: Something you'd be ridiculed for saying e.g. It would be foolish to think the Leafs can win after seven straight defeats.

2nd Picture:

I like that idea.

Thanks. I think a few other fanbases have done that in the past, so it's not really an original thought. It could just be something like a banner added at the bottom of everyone's regular avatar. Or the last stage in a GIF is each person's own.

Really wish I could photoshop and toss some out for people.

My pitch, which I've given in the past, would be something based on Babcocks comments regarding "there will be pain" when he first started as that's kinda marked the start of this Era for the Leafs to me. And there's been a lot of pain since!

Rough version I threw together below (if it loads): (picture of something painful, picture of something positive since, SC logo)

There has to be a pic of a game 7 loss in there to really drive home the “pain” levels.
I was actually relieved we finally went with the tank option.

I was halfbad at Adobe illustrator 4 years ago. Became a father and all my time Joe Laberoed away and never came back.

Now this is my skill level.

Hmm looks like a birchleef...

My avatar is a Maple leaf under water. Felt it said something about how i felt a long time. Might be time to change.

For sure. I 100% agree the pain was worse for game 7s and we knew the Leafs had to tank (but it still sucked). Game 7 losses was the other option (a lot of options too of course 😢
