| My first avatar!! Yeah! I have been attempting to make an avatar for on and off for almost a year. Villette made me some beautiful ones, but I could never get mine to work. So today I FINALLY did it!! Of course, it only took me 3 hours of doing it over and over Now I can update it any time I want

| I sent Panama69 the COMPLETE instructions with links to all the free downloads...yes I'm too cheap to buy a program!! Maybe she could copy the pm I sent her to this thread. I read her pm before I read this, so I didn't know so many people would want directions...and they are a little lengthy. Thank everyone

| Here are the instructions: Just let me know if you are confused. I finally found a program that even super dummies can use...just for me. Although I don't have the programs some of the other people do,and I'm not willing to go out and get them just to make an avatar. So, all of these programs are for free..at least for a time. I resized with irfanview http://www.irfanview.com/ all you do is open the page on your desktop, copy the pics to your desktop and save them as a GIF file, drag and drop the shortcut of the pic to the box, click 'image' to the resize and resize them to 125, then resave them. I downloaded http://www.blumentals.net/egifan/download.php for free...so easy to use. save to your computer, open it and click 'evaluate', go to 'create a new animation, close the first little box that comes up that say 'frame images', click the little film icon with a +, that will allow you to choose the photo you want, choose the resized GIF pics you want, you can also add names by clicking the little 'A'. You keep adding pics until you get 6 or so. You can test it by clicking the 'preview' tab. You want reset the times for at least 2 sec. Save it, go to the test forum and upload it, I think for an avatar you have to keep it under 64kb (or something) if it is too big it won't let you upload as an avatar. I also got some cute images from this site http://www.wishafriend.com/graphics/...hristmas/3.php I also downloaded them to my desktop and resized them, and used them in the middle. I hope this is clear (as mud)..if you get stuck just pm me. I check in pretty often Good luck!!
