okay so i was just thinking about how something, such as the switch with a similar system to avatars in flight rising has an option for background colors
it honestly annoys me that every single dragon i decide to use as an avatar has the annoying [b] blank space [/b] and i think it would be a little bit better for player customization if you could choose something such as a blue, a red, a teal, etc for you avatar
i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to implement, it could just be a subpage on the avatar settings

I've made a mock-up of this before! The suggestion comes around every now and then, and every time I support it as long as we also get the option of making it "transparent/semi-transparent" as well. There's a lot of beautiful vistas, and big parts of em get hidden behind that avatar which I'd like to see sometimes!
Regardless support, I think it'd be fun and it seems about as easy to code as putting the dragon itself in.

adding mock up here! as i like this one, and adding on suggested points and my own
-colors would be great if you could choose based off the already set in place, perhaps adding scenes in behind in the background
-maybe... patterns? here in there, such as you can have striped or dots!
-or maybe an option to have a sort of fade
-perhaps a faux shadow for the dragon, outlining them so it stands out!
-and i would KILL for an option to change the size of the dragon appearing, like how most sites have that option when you put in images

Support! :)
I really would like to see more forum customization, and this is a part of it! The white space is really annoying and distracts from the dragon in the image.

Definitely support, also love the mockup, haha. I imagine making the colors of the box the available colors we have for dragons would be easiest, although it’d be great if we had hexcode too.

As someone who gets super, SUPER annoyed by the white blanks, and has does many things in my power to rid myself of them, BIIIIIG SUPPORT for this. Please give me.

Support! Or near little patterned backgrounds

Support. The white space has bothered me since I have joined. There are a ton of dragons I want to use as avatars but look horrible because of that white space...

I will put something here eventually.

Support, also I like this idea of the available colors being the colors available for dragons.

Support. Especially for the mockup combining avatar/vista/color, and for having the colorwheel to choose from.
I just finished a Obelisk permabab and usually I'll make a completed project my avatar for a bit so I can enjoy them but Obi hatchlings look awful to me with the way their eye level is below the center line of the avatar box so you get a bunch of pointless white space above them. At least if we could choose a color for the background I could maybe make it less stark and have an Obelisk hatchling avatar once in a while.
