More specific: they are all from the world of LBP. :O

... Premium avatars though, so I guess I won't be having LBP avatars :kz:

Awesome! I might get one of these, only 25p. About time they released some LBP avatars as well.

No ARD! Well I guess this is meant to be in news anyway...

I'll have some change left in my cart after buying the PotC pack, so I'll be getting one of those avatars

...but which one? :arg:

That was in a separate section altogether.

Besides, it's LBP related so I don't see why I can't stay here?

Neither am I.

Besides, I quite like my current avatar!

No! I'm never going to let go of my tiger!

And I'm not paying for something like that. Paying for avatars... My opinion of anyone buying one will drop immediately.

Cool, now I can pay for stupid avatars like on Xbox!!

Thank you Sony! (this will actually work since people are retarded* enough to buy stuff like that on Xbox live already...)

Seriously why?

It's 20p, minute change from purchasing the PotC Level Kit for me.

Why would you even consider paying for a little 150px image?

With the PS3 having lost so much money I'm surprised its taken them so long to start selling existing artwork for 20p a go.2009-12-22 21:09:00

Just because I can.

It's also only 20p, I'm hardly going to miss that amount of money.

I don't like my current avatar, but I've kept it for 3 years now, and it would be confusing if I changed it.2009-12-23 00:05:00

I think it allows you to take a psp game with local multiplayer and play its multiplayer online via the PS3.

It's not about the money. It's about principles.

Do these only work on the user that paid for them? Because my dad's set a spending limit on my account so I can't buy anything, so I bought it on his account, and it's an option for him, but when I look it's not there 2009-12-23 11:11:00

No.
Someone on LBW tried this, but to no avail.

Seems the avatars aren't shared across other accounts on the same PS3 unlike other DLC.

It's not about the money. It's about principles.^This, also. Syroc and I seem to be the only ones who realise it's kinda a waste of monies to pay for small pictures...2009-12-23 15:33:00

No, I totally agree. I'd like a LBP avatar (all free ones suck), and sure, it's not a lot of money. But it's pure money grabbing to have to pay for a tiny picture that costs absolutely nothing to make. At least for LBP costumes they have to do some 3D modelling, I can see how that would need to cost something.

Wish they'd let us export images from LBP to use as an avatar. For free.

^Exactly! Someone, probably Syroc, said earlier that it's not the price, it's the principle. I think you hit the nail on the head, man.2009-12-23 16:36:00

jeez, quit it already. we know you guys don't buy them but that doesn't mean others won't.

principle whatever, it's only 0,25? and that's a steal since I don't like any of the default avatars.
and well, I only bhought the pirate one, the other ones suck.
