 		[PUZZLE TRAIL] Avatars
Not mine, but I'm playing...

http://ufavatars.webs.com/

EDIT - noone has finished it yet. I'm about 10/11 pages in, if anyone wants to catch up?

Also should have said on Pancito's original post (he did this, blame him!) he mentions swag (here: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=25328&start=287) There's also some hints for earlier pages on there too.

 		am I looking for a shade of grey? 999999 is color of grey (and 666666)......or CCCCCC

I know you won't tell me the answer, despite how many promises of baked goods I make, so tell me if I am on the right track, and looking for a numbered answer or letter. Thanks.

 		That doesn't ring a bell, which page are you on?

...and no I only give hints, unless you PM me specifically asking for the answer (cos where's the fun in that?)

 		Avatar game question
What if someone were to change their avatar image? Would the avatar image change for ALL of their past postings? I ask because I am going crazy looking for 2 avatars. #1 is what I call "bucket boy on wheels", #2 is the "Lawn Mower Man". The images from the past puzzles all were from "CF with Potential" so it is safe to assume the remaining avatars are with the "CF with Potential" realm (right?) I'm going nucking futts looking for these particular images. I found the a total of 3 so far, "rainbow eye, the jailbird and waitress#2".

 		Never mind.
I found the last 2. Now I have to figure out how to put them all together. Persistance pays off. Jeez, I hate being patient!

 		do you want the good news first or the bad news? Twisted Evil

The bad news is if someone's avatar changes then it does change on all the posts.

The good news is, if this happens and pancito is made aware then he will correct it...

The bad news is neither of the ones you mention have changed(or is that good news? I'm confused now...). Some of them are really hard to find as there's maybe only one or two posts. Also while most are in Bol/sid related threads pancito has said:

You might want to mention that almost all come from [BoL/SiD]. Or not

 		I have found alot from Various & Sundries/ Pastry Wars.

If you post the pic you are talking about, I can help you find the right thread. But so far, only one avatar has changed, and pancito corrected it immediately.

@Alisdair, I'm still on the banners page. Twinkies/Light on one side, Dark/Hoho's on other side, with a combined banner with both and "Shade of Grey" below them. Title of page "This looks easy..... and it is" .... but it isn't! I know it's just some combination of light and dark, but can't come up with any right answers to that.

edit: or is it names of who made the banners? You and Toasty?

 		That one stumped me for ages too, I was totally overthinking it, and so are you. Here's a hint
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
they're not called banners

 		What is "v.t. to do arithmatic" mean
Apologies if this is old material, but I am stupid:

I found all the avatars. Finally.
"Vini, Vidi, Vici!" - quote from Julius Caesar "I came, I saw, I conquered". Maybe a reference to a Caesar's box?

What does "v.t. to do arithmatic" mean? Google searched "v.t.": Virginia Tech college, Vermont state tourism site and very complicated mathmatic formulas.

Any clues from you rocket scientists out there? I am still having trouble with folding up a papper airplane.

 		that wasn't there when I did it, but I did get a couple of hints from pancake pancito.

..but it sounds like you're on track for the solve, keep at it.

 		Good point. I'll start baking now before my brain explodes.

(insert clue here) (please) (think smaller) (think of who will be responsible for losing my mind) (buy stock in Advil)

edited for poor spelling and cant use these <damn> brackets for anything.
