Added a new version in case you wanna use a game's image instead of text.
However, I couldn't initialize an array to link one item to the other, so I just made two values:
So if you wanna show it as text, you can select a game from "Favorite Game"
If you wanna show it as a picture, you can select a game from "Fave Game".
You can do both but then it's kinda redundant.

When I figure out how to initialize an array, I'll set it up properly I guess.  Either that, or just remove one of the two.

There are options for placement:
-Profile (where it is now)
-With Icons (if it were a set of icons I'd put it there but it's one somewhat large image so no)
-Above Signature (which I'm gonna try in a while after I figure out how to put it on the right side of the screen haha).

Do you think it's too much?  Let me know.  Right now it's tastefully small at 144x80 per game icon.

Yeah, a by-product of my not being able to do a proper drop-down menu is that users have two methods of adding a favorite game.  Essentially, they can add two games (one in text and one in terms of graphics).

I'm sure I'll be seeing 'Fave Game' images more often once people catch wind of this.  I also put it in the NewsBox.  I took the time of creating every little game logo (including games which would raise an eyebrow, such as "Order of Shadows").  I really put effort into this, so I hope everyone enjoys. :)

Sweet idea Jorge! Now we can know for sure what our most favored game is in the entire series.
"Spirituality is God's gift to humanity...
Religion is Man's flawed interpretation of Spirituality given back to humanity..."

You don't have to thank me.  You can thank GuyStarwind.  I just figured out how to do some of the legwork.
And hey, it's true that having that option will hopefully quell the need to have "What's your favorite Game" topics.

Too bad there are way too many options for "Best Tune" and "Best Stage".  xD

Yeah it's a very well thought out idea, now I can put at least two of my favorites from each style of cv. But cvIII will always be in my favorites slot ;D Just too special even if I dislike it sometimes.

It looked a little blah, so I went and modified the logo (had to shrink the castle).
It looks better now, what with the eclipse and all.
