I need inspiration!

Postby caralyn13 » Tue Mar 29, 2016 9:45 pm

Hi there, fellow human, :mrgreen: who probably has a really awesome avatar.
I need help finding a good avatar, as I have no creativity or inspiration whatsoever.
Or at least I don't know where to look/ what to have for an avatar.
Any suggestions on finding a good avatar :?:

If you need a good avatar, go to Spoiler: https://www.blankmediagames.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5791 I'm not too sure if they still make avatars, but you can ask them to make a specific avatar of your choice.
Sometimes it's nice to just watch the world BURN.

Go to Deviantart.com. Search for something. Crop like crazy. Overlay a pastel rainbow. Enjoy instant popularity.

Paint.NET is a good lightweight image application. It was supposed to replace MS Paint for Windows 7 but the plug was pulled. Now it's free. I've been using it for everything for.. like five years. I make a decent amount of graphics and it covers all the essentials.

You probably shouldn't take other people's images and artwork without permission though...

No need. Fair Use aside, I just so happen to create all of the media I ever share online.

So does everyone else.

They're sharing it on a public site. Whee unenforceable idea monopolization.

I just think people should be careful about what they're taking off the internet, especially if you're taking it from an art website like dA. Just remember to think about the artist, y'know? In the case that someone really doesn't want their art being taken without their knowledge, it's just kind of rude to do so without asking. Like personally, I don't think I would mind if people used my photos (assuming they're not making money from it), but I would probably want to know that they were being used, and I would probably ask that the person give me credit and maybe provide a link back to my website with the photo.

You should obviously pick a cute animal for your avatar.

Think of something you like, preferably a person, and look for a picture, preferably a gif, and amke sure it's small. Make it your avatar ^_^
You can still change it later. I've gone through a few before settling here.

If it's not small enough, go to a site called picresize.com to change it, or just crop out unnecessary parts.

You could also just right click, save picture as, and then open it up in paint to resize/crop.
