As you have seen with Erax's post, if you find a nice picture I'll be more than happy to shrink it down, polish it up and stick it in a frame.

So let the "Great Avatar Pic Hunt" begin,...

Just one rule, don't upload the pic here, just post the link. (if the pic is one of your own and has no link feel free to send it to me by e-mail but be sure to have the word 'avatar' in the subject heading.)

Cheers!

Well, it seems like you people are a little shy about participating in the 'Great Avatar Hunt'. So, I went on a little hunt of my own and look at what I caught...

David, found this link:
http://www.gif.com/ImageGallery/Animated/

Some of these might make fairly good animated avatars. (with a little of your magic of course)

And the site says they are FREE! (Love that price!)

First, Thanks for the link to the happy hunting grounds Taz, but there was very little worth hunting there. (I did grab three or four anims that I might convert to avatars but I'll leave that for later.)

..meanwhile in my regular hunting grounds I found these,...

I guess the happy hunting grounds belong to me, being that it seems like I'm the only one hunting. With that in mind, here is my latest catch...

Hey David,

Have you been to this site yet? Espectro

It's got a ton of art pics (classical and new). A lot of it would need cropping to make an avatar, but they might work anyways.

Here's one that I would like to see turned into an Avatar (for myself of course):

Pablo Perez; Cat (2003)

And if anyone likes fish, this one might work too (just crop the part with the fish in the bottom left corner):

Flou y la arcoiris (2002)

I'll see if I can find more pics for you to ply your trade on

Art.Com looks promising too. It's got a lot of new poster material (ie the Matrix, Terminator 3, Finding Nemo) and lots of classical stuff too.

EDIT: Oooh, Anna Kournikova avatars

Wow! Thanks for the links Katchoo. (At first glance they look like very happy hunting grounds.)

Oh, and here is what I managed to do with the one you requested...

P.S. If you prefer to have the horizontal dark lines running through the pic, just let me know and I'll add them for you.

Cheers!

Would the horizontal lines show up when shrunk? If the original lines show up relatively clearly then i'd prefer that.

But hot damn, she looks sweet already

Glad you like the links! I'll keep my eyes peeled.
