| I think you need to use a certain program so I am not much help in that regard but just hang tight Val is great I am sure she will get back to you as soon as she has a chance did you see how many she does? She also said she usually works on them on her days off which are Sunday or Monday's.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Here's the thread where you can request one - she must be busy cause she does lots of them - and pretty fast too - http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...320#post143320 I can make them - but she has animated text on hers & I don't know how to do that - hers are awesome - |

| Well, excuse me but I'm just slightly offended by that. You JUST posted your pictures in the past couple of days....and for your information, your avatar is already half made, on my program at my home computer. I would have/will have (if you still want it that is) it posted by around 10:30 tonight once I get the chance to get home from work at 10:15 and complete the last few edits on it so it's ready. I am a perfectionist and do not post avatars until I've made them to my standards. But if that isn't fast enough for you, by all means let me know because I have other avatars to make after yours.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I'll add that since I make them too - Mine are just simple avatars...but I know how time consuming they can be to make - FUN - but they do take some time - With editing....resizing, sharpening, lightening, cropping faces or backgrounds out... and finding just the right way to show a very tiny pic ...it takes a good eye and some work - THEN - you test it to see if it works right - and if we don't like something - you go back and do it over - and Val does animated TEXT on top of all that...She does some awesome avatars - It's WELL worth the wait - |

| There are no hard feelings....and I hate to sound mean because I am not mad...but considering that when I read this post I'd just returned from my dinner break at home which I spent 25 minutes on your very avatar.....makes me feel unappreciated...because I do these for you as a service to everyone out of the goodness of my heart. (Though I do accept donations ) I've had a big rush of avatars to do this week too.....which I have every intention of finishing them all from now until my days off which are Sundays and Mondays. During the week, I'm a full-time newswriter and I've been putting in overtime this past week....it's been a busy news-week! To be honest, working on your avatars during my days off will be a welcome change to listening to the police scanner and writing last minute stories and getting fussed at by my editors....agh....I'm soooo ready for the weekend. Saturdays are usually pretty quiet which I need b/c I still have smaller as-space-available stories to work on from this week. Bah. Sorry if my stress carries over into this, I promise I'll finish your avatar tonight and post it around 10:30-11 p.m.

| I believe most use Photoshop for the graphic manipulation and image ready animates it...they are high end graphic programs...I have it, my husband uses it but he took too damn long so I just asked elsewhere...I know just a tiny bit of photoshop but haven't used image ready. If you like what you get throw a few bucks her way to show appreciation, I did! My husband does the graphics for the website I maintain for a rock band so I know it's time consuming!
