From LINQ to SilverLight – Watch videos and hear about all the cool technologies coming and the people behind them. http://channel9.msdn.com/Forums en Sun, 19 May 2013 04:52:42 GMT Sun, 19 May 2013 04:52:42 GMT Rev9 19 -19 -1 Coffeehouse - Avatar redesign contest My avatar is Steve Jobs head crudely placed on an Xbox avatar. It is obviously the best avatar on Channel 9 in pure beauty and ingenuity. A shining example of The GIMP's awesome power and my perfect graphic design skills.

Despite some accusations, it's not part of some grand conspiracy to brainwash you to buy Apple products. I made it one day because I discovered Steve Jobs head fit really well into the Xbox avatar pictures. It's like Lego.

That being said. I'm offering a contest here. If anyone can create an avatar that I find personally more amusing than Steve Jobs's head on a Xbox avatar, I will switch to it. Chances are, you won't. But if anyone is brave enough to try, I'm up for it. Smiley

Found it, Peter Moore

I recommend a Jobs head from
