An Request

If somebody could put a Santa hat on my Vault-Boy icon, I would greatly appreciate it. I want to be festive, but I just love the little guy and don't want to replace him with Bat-Santa, my only other Christmas-themed icon.

Edit: And mere moments later, poocat created this fine example. Have a Vault Boy Christmas, everyone!

Easy and done.

Let me upload to Photobucket so you can steal it.

Does this work?

If you weren't already married, I'd volunteer to dance at your wedding.

That is perfect.

I'm not sure how dancing at my wedding would be payment for that, hahahahaha.

But yeah, it took two seconds. I'm glad you like it! :-)

Every time my dad asks a favor, he says "If you'll [do favor], I'll dance at your wedding." I'm not exactly sure what it means, either.

What the heck is a Vault-Boy anyway?

[veazey21]

This is Vault Boy:

I like this little character....perhaps I shall get bored enough to make you a whole series of icons! Hahaha.

Another great thing you can do with your time, if you like mid-century American popular culture like I do, is play the original two Fallout games. You can get them both (and Fallout Tactics, the game nobody talks about) on a CD for like $25. They're ten years old, so you shouldn't have any kind of trouble running them on your computer.
One warning, though: the first two are turn-based games, which takes a while to get used to and can turn enormous multi-party battles into something of a bore sometimes, but it's still a lot of fun. And the huge disconnect between the world before the war (when all the technology was made) and after the war (when the games take place) is an endless source of amusement for me. I just love the idea of Ward Cleaver stepping out of a Vault into the post-apocalyptic wasteland and looking for more tobacco for his pipe in the crumbling ruins of America.
