Does your avatar need help?

18,103 6,248 October 14, 2006 at 06:40 PM in Cool (6)
Please post your requests in this thread. It's too hard for me to keep track of all the private messages. Thanks!

I'm no pro, but I can definitely lend a hand if you'd like a new avatar or need some help with your existing one (and if I can't help hopefully someone here can help you)!

Here are some samples of work I have done. Please don't ask me to create something from scratch... I'm not that artistically gifted. laugh out loud I'm better at tweaking/resizing/altering images, adding backgrounds, special effects, etc. - and squeezing the crap out of current gifs to get them to fit into the tiny file size limitation.

Whatever you'd like, it doesn't hurt to ask! woot

Kristin - awesome work thus far nod

Any chance you could figure out a way to tweak my avatar so that Calvin looks cleaner and has a bigger window/mirror that I can drop things into? This might be tough.
How about this:

Is that what you were looking for or is it not quite right? Let me know. Smilie

PG, I can't view the image at your link. Can you save it to your computer and upload it to SD? It probably just needs to be resized.

Ummmmm it's a moving image. Similar to the one that I have now (that's actually the one I saved) but it flashes on the pic of Bucky and then flashes to a comic bubble that says "Vogue." Let me see if i can try it again.

That just needs to be resized (and the vogue needs to be rewritten since it's now too small laugh out loud) - brb Smilie

Do you want me to put a different transition on it (this would make the frames change in a cool way, ie: curtains, fade, dissolve, etc)? See the avatars in the OP for a few examples.
