Looking for an Avatar? Make Your Own!
Posted by Jason Dunn in "SITES & RESOURCES" @ 11:00 AM
Are you one of the poor huddled masses lacking an avatar in our forums? Do you lack artistic talent or just can't find the perfect avatar to represent the complexity of your being? Fear not dear readers - have I got a great solution! This nameless avatar maker uses Flash, and it's very fun and easy to use. Look at this guy that I made:
No, that's not me. Seriously. 8O Ok, some days I feel like that guy. :lol:
Once you've made your avatar, take a screen capture of it using either the PRINT SCREEN key or a tool like SnagIT. Paste that capture into your favourite graphics editor, crop it, then resize it to be a maximum of 75 x 75 pixels in size. Once you have the graphic, go into your preferences page and upload the image. That's it - now you're among the proud, the free, the avatar blessed!
