I'm working on drawing a new avatar and I'd like to ask everyones's opinions on what I've got so far. If you have any suggestions I'd be very interested in what you have to say. I'm also looking for suggestions on how to do a border for it.

I'd say don't use a border and make the white transparant

Could you please tell me how would I go about doing that? I drew the image in Flash MX and imported it to Photoshop. I also don't have much experience with photoshop so it may be something insanely easy that I just don't know yet. Either way, I like your idea.

I'd use, after pasting the image in a new layer in PS, the magic wand tool, then turn off the anti-aliasing, select the white, press DEL and then use save for web to save it as a .gif image

edit: I just noticed the actual image is much bigger and this was just a thumbnail X_X

Anyway, I resized it to fit the 100x100 limit, then used the magic want tool

This is with anti-aliasing.

Thank you very much Angelic. By the way, I do hope you don't leave as I did think you were a great Admin and your still a helpful intelligent member.

We'll see what happens, it's just that certain people on this forum give me the feeling they'd love to see me dissapear and I'd hate to dissapoint them because they obviously add more to these forums than I do v_v
