Creating Avatars?

[Marknz]

Folks,

Anyone able to give us a guide on how to create our own avatars, or can we send someone our images and have them do it for us?

Use something like Adobe Imageready...import the video. It will automaticall convert the video image in to playable 'slices' - you can then edit and play with the slices to your hearts content.

For straight images - you just keep duplicating the last image and moving it fractionally to 'animate' the object.

You are actually talking about 'animated gifs' that form your avatar.
