Default Re: The New Fangled Avatar Factory & Bar

Here's an Idea,.. if you got a paint program that can do the following..

1) Load a .png image with alpha channel
2) Crop and/or resize an image (to 64x64 size)
3) Overlay a .png on the resized/cropped 64x64 image
4) Save As.. .gif (with optimized pallet & set color RGB 255,0,255 to transparent)

Then using this Template..



You too can make a custom Avatar. Try if if you can and see if it works. Be sure to post your results here so we can all see. If you want to make a 'batch' of avatars and post them here, Mindi can decide if they are worthy of being moved to the default selection of avatars.

Cheers!
