shinjiyo UPSF Lieutenant Junior Grade Registered: 10/29/12 Posts: 83 Loc: Minnesota	Hello there! I was wondering how you make an avatar. I chose this one because it reminded me of me when I had long hair. Anyway, yes I was wondering how it is done or if there is a site that could make one by dragging a picture of some sort. _________________________ Living life in the mud isn't bad if it's just one life.

Like with my current avatar the image I used is this one. http://img.imgcake.com/Cheapone/Asunafairyjpgam.jpg Then I crop out the part I want to use, normally just the face and resize it to 100x100 as that is the biggest the animetoday forums take. _________________________ Avatar is Madoka Koumoto from Hoshikaka

PetrifiedJello UPSF Lieutenant Junior Grade Registered: 01/21/10 Posts: 134 Loc: Indiana	I use Adobe Fireworks (the little sister of Photoshop and much easier to use). All my avatars are custom made, though I may use the works of others. Currently, I'm using Kozue Amano's Akari Mizunashi, because I'm in love with her. cough The image is from one of her manga volumes, though I don't know which one. I don't read manga, and I couldn't find a suitable image from the anime. I super-imposed the "ARIA" text on the image, added a border, and then resized it. Took about 10 minutes. 40 if you count the time it took to find a good image. _________________________ No sappy lines allowed!
