Thanks Lyonesse.

I'm no expert but this looks pretty good to me.

How did you accomplish that? I am still working one dot at a time. Is it OK with you if I use it?

 

[Emp.Napoleon]

This did not turn out how I thought it would but here it is. If you don't find one you like, I'll work on it a bit more this evening (gotta feed the rugrats...funny how they get all worked up about not eating )

Do you think yuo can make more contrast between the shield and the donkey? Otherwise it is great thanks

Im not too sure how they would turn out in a 65x65 file size, so I requested two.

thank you all so much!

Hey MattBrown, wanna try these on for size?

 

[Mistfit]

or this... I know it's not your image but hey it's a neat pic

 

[downtown]

Misfit, ah, but that is the alubm cover of the Cherry Poppin Daddies, not Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. It is a sweet pic, and a sweet album tho.
*matt knows his retro swing*
Raijer, thanks ever so much. as soon as my profile lets me use a custom avatar, (which, even tho I have 300+ posts, it isnt letting me do,) I'll use one of those

many thanks!

 

[Ankka]

Your profile won't let you use a custom one? Interesting...

Try logging off and on again, maybe that would help.

If it doesn't, you should propably contact Thunderfall.

 

[downtown]

spot on there Ankka, I just needed to log out/in, and delete a cookie, and bam. Avatar'd.

thanks again

 

[Mistfit]

Here's another.

BTW Mistfit knows almost nothing about Swing

I'm no expert but this looks pretty good to me.

Thanks Misfit. Does it look OK?

 

[Raijer]

Thanks Misfit. Does it look OK?

Is it supposed to be transparent? If, so... well.. it's not. Otherwise..

@Matt - you're welcome!

 

[scloopy]

What would have to be done to make it transparent, take out the white?

 

[Incubus0223]

what are you using?

I use photoshop 7

open the file up in photoshop, delete the locked white background layer (if it exist), then delete the white in the image, and then save the file as a gif.

If you wait for like an hr, i'd be able to make it for you

 

[Raijer]

What would have to be done to make it transparent, take out the white?

Yep. If you want, post the original pic, and either I or someone else can do it for you. You can also go to the first page of this thread to find lessons on how to do transparencies in different image editing programs.

 

[Mistfit]

The one that I posted orginally was transperant. As is this one(cleaned up a bit)

Copy the above link and paste it in the Change Avatar area of User CP.

It should look somthing like this

 

[scloopy]

The file is 4096 and too big. Let me see if I can cut is down a bit.
