Avatar Spook Bazaar
for October**
Hey there,
I was thinking of something festive for Halloween. Since avatars are so creative these days, I was thinking perhaps we could all switch to Halloween avatars, like custumes, etc, for the month of October. :)
Or spooky theme avatars, etc. I dunno. I just think it could be funny... or scary. :)
I know we have two weeks until October, but some time to work on them.
So on October 1st, if you want to play along, get creepy. :)
in best Vincent Price voice Mwuahahah ha ah *cough * wheez.. wha ha aha..
Something to get you in the mood. :)

I'm so bad at avatars, but look! I found something scary, the old beauty standby -- Arsenic wafers, for a lovely pale complexion! ...Since you took them internally, I'm sure you got that lovely pale complexion rather sooner than you wanted...

I'm game. In fact I had already been putting together some ideas for one.
