Unless you borrow (steal) a pre-existing small graphic, it's pretty hard to take a larger image and get it to look good at such a small size. I usually takes me a while to get mine right. It's a lot of work. Don't do it unless you have something nice to show us, and please let it not be annoyingly animated!

Catboy's is animated, but it's very subtle. Good example of animation that I'm cool with.

But he borrowed it. I like the home-grown ones better.

I have had several of my avatars stolen shamelessly, so to avoid this, I've decided to not have one myself. or DO I?? hmmm....
Anyhoo, if you have a totally awesome 100x100 picture, then you should use it. but if not, it's not that big of a deal.

heheh, yeah, I do. It's an invisible avatar though. It'll only be a matter of time before someone steals this one too.

I've actually recieved PM's from a few different people who thought it was actually a broken image.

That's the kind of subtlety that I love.

how to tell if it's a broken image or not: if it's broken, there's no cat....

[forrestunifreak]

Well actaully i tried,but it somhow turned out "broken" like catboys avatar,but without the kitty.I woulda left it,but It was just like catboys.so.no avatar for me.
