I did it, but it's not very clear. I just Saved the picture in My Pictures, then loaded it in Photobucket and plugged in the link. Do I need to do something different--like modify the format of the pic when I save it?

It doesn't seem square...would that help not make it look all squished?

Maybe go on paint and make all the lines thicker or something,
And turn the background into one solid color, so it isn't all fuzzy and stuff
and crop it so the dradel is centered

I tried cropping it in Paint and taking out the writing. It still looks unclear. I didn't bold the lines or anything--but my hand is too unsteady in paint, I'd end up making it look worse.

Oh well. I guess I'll have a slightly blurry avatar for the Holiday season.

Despite my much protesting, I decided to play around with Paint. So now Dire Dreidel has some thicker lines around the box part of him, bigger fangs, and a black goatee. (And everyone knows a goatee=evil--just see Nale in The Order of the Stick).  ;)

Perhaps I will attempt to make him more clear later, but I'm done for now.

it looks much better, though the goatee is hard to see.

I'd make the background all one color

Edit: ok then, here I'll do it:



you can just use this URL instead of saving it and uploading it yourself and whatnot: http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c218/lightning_eater/Dreidel.jpg

wow, TWG really is good at getting me to waste my time

Sorry, paint is like my only skill, so I do stuff with it whenever I can

Ok, I just noticed 42's icon.  I hope that didn't take as long to do as it looks like at first glance, because that is some serious timewasting.  But the icon is great.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)
