Frostball

Mar 28, 2012 15:34:16
I've been looking for a good picture to use on these forums.  My name's Frostball.  I'd like to have a Frostball picture.  I was thinking like a fireball, but with ice.  Seems easy but...  I've searched google and have found nothing that exactly fits what I'd like.  What I'd like is a ball of frost that looks like it's shooting through the air with a tail.  Like a blue ball, maybe with like frost sparklies indicating that it's cold and not just some blue fireball.  I don't know, I'm not very visually artistic myself so I can't draw it, but I have a pretty good idea of what I'd like.

Basically if you happen to know of a cool picture that sounds like what I described, I'd love to have it!

You should. It's pretty funny and Smith's best film.


That stuff isn't normally my kind of movie.

But thanks anyway!

So I found this one that I'm using here.  It's the best I've found but...  I still don't think it's perfect.   Seems a bit crystaline, and not so much a ball.  But I guess it will do.  Still, if anybody has a cooler one, send it my way please!

 Try Googling images of comets - they're big frostballs flying through space after all, right? You should be able to find something interesting, or maybe grab a screencap from the intro to one of the Star Trek series - I forget if it was Next Generation, DS9 or maybe Voyager, but one of those has a really cool cgi comet flying across the screen at one point.

Hey, where did draco go? He's banned, his post is gone, but I don't see the usual ORC message saying action was taken in this thread. Did I miss something here?


Of course you (we) did.

Have you considered trying synonyms for both "frost" and "ball" when you Google search?  I just swapped ball for orb and came up with these:

Of course I did, silly!  None of those are what I said I was looking for.  I said I wanted one that was shooting, with a trail of ice.  The one I have now is sort of close, but I'd really like it to be more like a ball of ice rather than a crystaline looking thing.  I really would have thought scouring google pics with words like "Frost ball, iceball, frost orb, ice orb, blizzard ball, frozen orb, frozen ball, blue fireball, frost bolt" would find me something.  But it's didn't.  And that's when I decided to make a thread.

It can be.  But I'm looking for a ball made out of frost.  And really, this is about what I'm looking for, and what I want.  Are you trying to convince me that I would rather a crystaline looking thing?
