Did you make your own Avatar?
I would like to know how many of you have made the avatar that you are using. I have made mine from my join date. I made it in photoshop. What about you? What did you use to make yours. If you didn't make your own don't bother posting to this thread. I'm not asking what your avatar is about, just how you made it.

Yes, I have only myself to blame for the apparent ambiguity.

I created mine on the South Park website (comedycentral.com). It's a self-portrait a la South Park.

I made mine by capturing a bit of a Shag print that I really like, and then I touched it up in Fireworks (not a huge fan of Photoshop).
If I recall correctly, I added the pufferfish lamp, part of the table, and I put the drink in the skeleton's hand.

I don't know what everyone's problem is? I saw a cat the first time my eyes touched your avatar.

Mine's what my face would look like, were it a vector made in Fireworks.

Yeah, mine's a cartoon I drew of myself that I've wound up using as a kind of logo all over the place. I drew it with a black felt-tip pen, coloured it in with Letraset Tria markers (which are incredible -- so bright on the page -- they completely transcend the crappy things I used as a kid), scanned it, then touched it up in Fireworks.

I made mine in Fireworks as well. I've never used Photoshop very much. I have an old version of FW which still works fine for me.

Can we all say " Rorschach" :lol:
A separate thread on what we think Katis' Cat is might be warranted
So far we've had everything from "Mystical Egg" :rotfl: to "Tree in front of sunset" :lol:
Isn't perception just great?

I can't lay claim to mine really - I changed it a bit from something I found a long time ago; Whilst it actually irks me that I can't be creative enough to come up with something I like better, this is mitigated by the fact that every time I see it, part of me smiles...
