I did add them.
Seems like I really have to point it out.
Guys, please understand that these graphics that I have designed are Avatars, that is why they are Called Kingdom Rush
Avatars. Avatars are supposed to be used as avatars and not as signatures, they were designed to be avatars not signatures. If you use them as signatures you just pretty much destroy their purpose. Also I have designed many of them not for the reason that you then put a bunch of them in your signature. I designed a big variety of those so that each user can find for himself a fitting avatar which distinguishes him from another user, if most avatars are displayed multiple times in signatures then there is no reason to display it as your avatar as it is not unique any more. Please note guys that I have put a lot of time and effort into creating this thread and designing these avatars however I did not get much in return other than a sticky in the forum section, this thread has more views than my DeviantART page which is pathetic. Kingdom Rush Avatars on DeviantART have 500 views and only 100 downloads. I did not profit from designing them at all, I purely did it for the community trying to give free content to fans of ironhide games. I have made version 2.0 trying to increase the forum activity and bring in more attention but that did not happen. It is very demanding every time with each update redesign the avatars, design new banners, icons and rearrange the whole thread so that it becomes better and more appealing. I just feel like all of this was not even worth it, I barely got any feedback and there is not a single user other than me who uses the avatars as intended. Also note that I did all of this for free, I do not gain any money from your views or downloads. The developers literally do not care even though I have tweeted them, e-mailed them and informed them about my project but then again looks like they dont care about the forums at all any more, not even talking about the ideas and projects of the community,
