Jabberjaw Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 For LSU Fan - and Jabber Jaw Thank you very much, Dinohunter for my logo. I am going to get my dad to get me a stamp made of it. I really really like it. Thank for going to the trouble of making it for me. Jabberjaw----blah-blah-blah Quote
+Ghostcat78 Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 (edited) I need a good picture of just a geocache ammobox with one of those "geocache" stickers on it so That I can put it on my sig card. I'm looking for preferably the ammo box alone with a white background, or just the box itself. oh, and the lid needs to be open. Also, i'd prefer a straight on shot from the front. Thanks, Edited January 6, 2005 by Ghostcat78 Quote

+Squrl Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 Thanks Goleft, Resizing this thing is kicking my A@#, but I like it! Quote
+Squrl Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 I give up? The thing is still to small WTFO. How do I get it as big as some of these other ones? Quote
Smaug1 Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 (edited) I'm not having any luck getting my avatar up and running here. I clicked on the option to edit my controls and avatar settings. It took me back to geocaching.com. I followed the instructions, uploaded a legal-size avatar. I changed my signature. I entered my password to make sure the changes would save. I still don't see an avatar. Am I missing something or is there just a waiting period? Do I have to do something at Groundspeak once I've made the change at geocaching.com? Thanks.

+carleenp Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 First, make sure you hit the button to "select avatar.' I think simply clicking the pic won't do it, you have to click that button. Next, you have to reenter the forum from the front page. Going through that intermediary page that makes you click the link to enter the forums updates your info here. If you are bookmarked to skip that page, your info won't update. Quote

+TinyDiny Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 Hi , I have an Eeyore avatar, I am a big Eeyore fan(ask Mastifflover!) I just have not found one that I am really happy with. Can you help me? I love goecaching, reading, playing computer games and spending time with Mastifflover. Any help from anybody would be greatly appreciated. I think an Eeyore with an Etrex Legend would be cool . I just am not handy enough with a computer to figure it out. Thanks in advance. TinyDiny Quote

Dino Hunters Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 I just stumbled accross this and thought that folks in this thread might appreciate the info. A FREEWARE avatar resizing software is available at this link. I installed - looks simple and easy. Perhaps may be of assistance for anyone having trouble resizing files. You simply pick you original file, select the max height and width and save the new file. http://www.j-q-l.freeserve.co.uk/avatarsizer.htm Quote
+TinyDiny Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Kimmyroo.. I see your into Pooh too.... That's wonderful!! I really like the Eeyore. Now what do I do?? Quote
+TinyDiny Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 I finally figured out how to do it with Mastifflovers help.... Thank you sooooo much kimmyroo.... I love it!!!! Quote
kimmyroo Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 (edited) Your welcome glad you like it Yes I am a big Roo fan, The hundred acre woods is a great place Edited January 11, 2005 by kimmyroo Quote
+Renegade Knight Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Wow, haven't stopped in for awhile. With all the nice avitars it would be nice to see them splashed about the rest of the forums. Kimmyroo, I'm a closet Eeyore fan. Something about his attitude. He's having fun, it's just hard to tell. I've got one sitting on top of my monitor. Quote
+TinyDiny Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 I have one on my monitor too, along with a bunch of them throughout the house. I would like to live in the 100 acre woods!! Quote
+Go JayBee Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Can I get a PhotShop Guru to finish my avatar? I had Sparrowhawk start it, but unfortuneatly, she is having hardware problems. She says that if you need the "peices" , they can be sent. What I am looking for is similar to the attached sketch; I really like the "night" look, but would like to get the light rays w/ "Go JayBee" & "LitLens" showing. Anyone willing to give it a try? TIA, Go JayBee Quote
+Quintheeskimo66 Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 I've come here like so many others looking for some help. I've had several avatars that I've "borrowed" from the internet. I think It's time that I had a custom avatar. I've messed around with some imaging software... mess is the right word! But I haven't been able to manage anything that is presentable. I was hoping that some of the artists in the group could give me a hand. I've seen some fabulous work in this forum! I'm of course looking for something that goes with the Eskimo theme. Kayaks, igloos, Eskimos, etc. And if possible, a geocaching twist. I use a Meredian Platinum GPS most of the time. Or perhaps just a background with the Geocaching symbol colors. Perhaps a variation of the one I am currently using with the Geocaching symbol background. .... See, I have so many ideas and so little talent. Thanks in advance for your help John Hi All, I thought I'd try reposting this now that there is more activity on this thread. I've seen some really nice work coming out of here! Quote
+KaPeRsMom Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 I was wondering if anyone was good enough to make an avatar for me a mom... with either 8 arms each holding ballet slippers, swim suit, scout uniform, backpack, shopping list, laundry, car keys and a GPS OR the items can just be spinning over her head Any other suggestions are appreciated. Thanks Quote
+Sparrowhawk Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Can I get a PhotShop Guru to finish my avatar? I had Sparrowhawk start it, but unfortuneatly, she is having hardware problems. She says that if you need the "peices" , they can be sent. I can do better... this weekend, I will post a high-quality "blank" for others to work from. (hi-quality pic of the tobasco bottle against an easily-deletable green background). Stay tuned! Quote
+Cocacola1820 Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 I'm looking for an avatar with a meridian gold in the shape of a coke bottle. Can anyone help? Quote
+Sparrowhawk Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 (edited) OK, phellow Photoshop phreaks! Here is your blank for jaybee's image. This is made in Photoshop CS, one layer, no background. The bottle image is just the bottle nicely isolated on one easy, transparent layer. And DON'T left-click it because your browser won't know what to do with it. Right-click and save to desktop. I decided that was better to work with than what I thought to do at first. Thanks! Right click and one download-able good quality Jaybee PSD Edited January 16, 2005 by Sparrowhawk Quote
+webscouter. Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 I'm looking for an avatar for a friend, KC_Chiefs needs an avatar that I can add to a hiking stick, (not me personally). It cannot be the logo of the Kansas City chiefs due to copy right issues but that is what they want to portray. I thought maybe something to do with the stadium as it is pretty recognizable Quote
+Bullfrog Eh-Team Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 I'm a 'newbie', who has recently caught the geo-caching fever. I'm currently waiting delivery of my first GPSr, a Garmin 60CS. I'm totally impressed with all the friendly assistance being presented, among the geo-caching crowd. My current Avatar shows my ineptitude at creating a nice Avatar. Is there someone out there who can help me - please? I'm a 'senior', a Canadian, who has worn the nick-name 'Bullfrog' for over 65 years, as did my father and grandfather. 'Bullfrog' is a derivitave of my real surname. Hence my log name of "bullfrogeh". My career was in Education. Would a Canadian Bullfrog with a professor's mortar-board, perhaps standing at a blackboard be a reasonable suggestion ? Quote
Dino Hunters Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 (edited) For Go JayBee... That's quite a bit of stuff to put in 75 pixels. Edited January 17, 2005 by Dino Hunters Quote
+Go JayBee Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 For Go JayBee... That's quite a bit of stuff to put in 75 pixels. Dino Hunters...... That is NICE...How about sending me the original size version, so I can use that for ordering some wooden nickels? Thanx, JayBee Quote
+Go JayBee Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Now lets just see what this new avatar looks like..... Quote
Dino Hunters Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 (edited) There is no "original size" to speak of since it is all buit in vector format. I can send you an EPS file in the original format, or a JPG imported and rastorized to any amount of pixel width you'd like. Feel free to send me an e-mail and let me know which of these you'd like. Here is what it might look like in a circle format.... Edited January 18, 2005 by Dino Hunters Quote

I appreciate your work. I'll use the one with the Cdn flag right away. Would there be a way t6o get a second frog-'leg' into the pic ? Quote
nickie218 Posted January 21, 2005 Posted January 21, 2005 Just created this a week ago.........they are David Blaine's eyes(he has them tatooed on his arm). Looks kinda cool huh? Quote

+texastracker Posted January 21, 2005 Posted January 21, 2005 Hi all.....Had a Question......Amishhacker was actually working on this but I was thinking I could possibly do it myself since he's so busy. I want to increase the size of my avatar to be able to print out transfers for shirts etc.....How can I do it or can someone help? Thanks Quote
+Sparrowhawk Posted January 21, 2005 Posted January 21, 2005 Hi all.....Had a Question......Amishhacker was actually working on this but I was thinking I could possibly do it myself since he's so busy. I want to increase the size of my avatar to be able to print out transfers for shirts etc.....How can I do it or can someone help? Thanks There's a cute Photoshop trick for that. Normally if you just enlarge a pic from small to large (Image > Image Size, enter the size you need, hit OK) you get a blurry mess. The trick is to enlarge the image 110%... over and over again until it is the size you want. The image is cleaner then. Then use Unsharp Mask to clean it up a bit. I have a Photoshop action just for that purpose. Very cool and useful. On the other hand... if you are trying to enlarge it from a tiny 1 inch wide to a foot wide or something big like that... good luck... there is no way to make that look good unless you are willing to put in a lot of cleanup work.
