Can anyone here make me an avatar?

[flvegan]

Ok, I have no skills. None. If I had any 'puter skills, I'd probably be on the lam for defacing the Consumer Freedom site.

Sigh. Anyone, please?

[smbolisnch]

1. Mayyyyybe!

Do you have an image??

[flvegan]

2. I do. Easily recognizable.

And will be my first tattoo, when I find my spine and go get it. Here you go:

[smbolisnch]

3. Do you want it just like that?

[flvegan]

4. Uh, I guess. Really showing my stupidity here.

What are my options?

[smbolisnch]

5. Here you go!

I guess what I was asking was if you wanted a border, etc :)
ETA, was that what you had in mind?

[flvegan]

6. That's perfect! Thank you. Okay, now smbolisnch ONLY read this

How do I insert this as my avatar?

I'm an idiot, I know. The DU instructions are clear, but I don't get it. Do I have to save it to my hard drive, then upload?

[smbolisnch]

8. lol, yes.

Save it to your hard drive.
Then go into edit my profile, in the avatar box click upload.
Choose that image. Upload it.
In the avatar name box, you put personal/148044.jpg <<<this may not be your number, it tells you what number to use in the box.


Let me know if that makes sense...I am terrible with directions!

[flvegan]

10. It works!!!!!!

I have to be honest. It took me two tries. I uploaded it and got a hand slap for not doing it right.

THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

[AFSCME girl]

33. I borrowed your directions,

smbolisnch, and made Agent H from the ASPCA my new avatar!! I hope you don't mind and THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

P.S. Do you like my new avatar? :7

[smbolisnch]

34. Cool!

I LOVE your new avatar!! ;)

[AFSCME girl]

35. Thank you!

;)

[smbolisnch]

7. here is another one, this may be too big.

But you can see it better...

[smbolisnch]

9. Yay you got it!!

:bounce: Good job!!
You might want to try the larger one I just posted, so it will show up better. Now that you are an avatar uploading maniac! :P

[flvegan]

11. I think that was the larger one...

Geez...I still got it wrong.

[smbolisnch]

12. Noooo, it's ok!

I can still tell what it is, but I think that was the smaller one. :) I didn't mean to sound nasty!

[flvegan]

13. No, you weren't being nasty.

I redid it, and it is the larger one. I guess that in the resizing, it loses a little of it's smoothness. I still love it! Thank you!

[smbolisnch]

14. Sure, anytime!

I wonder if anyone will notice it, or know what it is? :yourock:

[flvegan]

15. If they do, great. If not, and they ask, I'll fill them in. Most of all,

it's me. Everything I am is wrapped up in that leaping bunny...













except he/she should be wearing a ski mask or balaclava. *snort*

Thank you again.

[smbolisnch]

16. lol, we should all have AR avatars...maybe I will make some

for our little board here that anyone can use! What do you think? And you are welcome ;)

[flvegan]

17. Ooooooh, I like it. That way, whenever a topic comes up

I can select an appropriate avatar.

I love this one though. It's going on my right calf (appropriately enough) when I get the gumption.

[smbolisnch]

18. I will do it then!

We want pictures when you do get it done! I watched my friend get one on his back of his fraternity logo. His face was three shades of purple! :scared:

[flvegan]

19. That's a promise.

I know it'll hurt, but I know a vegan tattoo artist with veg ink who'll do it for me. It's gonna be great advertising for a cruelty-free lifestyle, too.

[smbolisnch]

20. I'll hold you to that!

Sounds great! :)

[shockra]

21. I was wondering a while ago...

If anyone would ever be brave enough to create a PETA avatar.

I don't know if I'm that masochistic.

[flvegan]

22. Hell, I had a quote from Ingrid in my sig line for quite a while.

If I weren't so smitten with my new avatar, I'd be game.

Someone 'round here has a "meetyourmeat.com" avatar, though. Lots of you good veg folk have links in your sigs, too. Mine is just propagandhi...something to think about.

Now, BRAVE would be making an avatar out of an activist in a balaclava, holding a beagle, like this one:



or this

[shockra]

24. Hmm...I wouldn't mind that.

There's a sense of irony to it.

It's just anything with the word PETA in it that I think would cause nonsensical violent reactions to anything you posted on any topic whatsoever.

Yeah. That's what I was envisioning in my worst nightmare. An avatar that said PETA. B-)

[smbolisnch]

23. Here is one!

[shockra]

25. Ah, gee.

That's not so scary!:D

[smbolisnch]

26. Nope!

:P

[shockra]

27. I was thinking more of something like this.

[smbolisnch]

28. lol

I triple dog dare ya! :P

[shockra]

29. Ooooh..........

I'll do it next time there's a PETA thread. Or sooner, depending...

I'm having a conversation in the Feminist group with this nice guy and I don't want to scare the living fuck out of him. He's been through enough there this week. You know those feminists. :evilgrin:

I did go to options and put the url in my sig line before I thought of that. :dilemma:

[smbolisnch]

30. lmao

You are crackin me up! :rofl:
Don't go scaring the f@#k out of any poor defensless men now.....

[shockra]

31. You wouldn't believe how many men think I'm Satan.

On the internet, anyway.

The first was a NYC Law Professor, thrice nominated for a Pulitzer Prize who didn't want me posting about astrology on a movie board. :eyes:

I'm not sayin' who, though.

He complained on the phone to his female friends (on the board) for sympathy and made a dramatic farewell exit.

Sometimes I don't know my own strength. :nuke:

[smbolisnch]

32. Evildoer!!!!!!!!

lol, sounds like you can really make em scatter! ;)
I love your new sig pic, btw!

[shockra]

36. Thank ya.

Poor Monkey.

I just got my Primate Freedom Tag last week, so the monkeys are on my mind. My adopted monkey is in Seattle, WA. :(

http://www.primatefreedom.com/whatare.html

That made me think of adding the Primate Freedom Project gif to my sig line, but I didn't know it was going to take up the whole bottom of the screen. It seems like a bit much! That little monkey is depressing though, so I wanted to add "something people can do" if they're depressed by the monkey.
