+Viridios Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 I was curious as to what computer program you use to create your avatars? I have an idea for one, but it requires me to superimpose two separate images over top of one another, and I have no artistic abilities to be able to hand draw it. Any suggestions Quote
+Eagle and the nuts Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 I just found some clipart on-line and used Microsoft Paint (included in almost every version of Windows) to make modifications. Quote
+roziecakes Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 I used photoshop, but I'm a web designer, so it's kind of my thing. There used to be a thread on here where people could request for help making their avatars and some of us would help. That being said, I could make you an avatar if you want. Just send me the pictures you are trying to use and let me know what you want. Quote

Just send me the pictures you are trying to use and let me know what you want. I had wanted to do it myself, but I did come across the topic you are referring to, and have requested one be made. I am looking for an amalgamation of the geocaching G logo and a compass rose, perhaps with the geocaching colours and my username or initials. Quote
+dorqie Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 I got a stock photo (a royalty free image) off the web, because I didn't wan't to simply "steal" someone elses art, as google makes it so easy to do (just right click and save the image) Then I added the text with MS paint. I did the same for my friend HunnyKitty, just a stock image with text added with paint. Quote
+Ambrosia Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 (edited) I used to care about my avatars, and changed them quite often to suit my mood. But now that they changed to the teeny square avatar, I don't care anymore and for the most part stick to the same avatar. Poor BlueDeuce, I think he misses me. Especially the blue me.
