I'd go with first one. Can look kind of weird coming out of his head in the other ones, But if you want any changes or have suggestions I'm happy to give them a go =]

^^ that's an excellent avatar even though you're a horrible person for liking the patriots
could i make a small request? i'd like this avatar'd, but if you could do two small things to it:
1) crop out everything above the player (i want to lose the big SF, most of the blimp)
2) put a thin black border around the final product (like my current avatar)
many, many regards

Is someone able to make me a Santi Cazorla from the picture on this page?

I would be very greatful. Unfortunately I suck at making avatars.

I didn't think it looked very good without a background, the image to start of with is a little too low quality to cut out well, but they are here as options =]

Thank you very much Toppot!
Well as a plus, it stands out. But I suspect lots of people look at it (Myself included) and think 'Must be an avatar about some joke/thread on the forum ages ago'
Depends what you want your avatar to be, do you want it to be unique, make old posters smile with memories, be highly quotable, represent you, show something you love/are a fan of, do you want to blend in and let your posts make you stand out, do you want something to match your username, excite posters with some sexy looking woman, do you even want an avatar?
Have to ask yourself what identity you want your avatar to have and then find an image to show that. You can then choose if it is an avatar you will have for ages, you might become someone that changes often, you could have a theme (Like a cartoon character) and you switch to different avatars of the same theme. Or maybe its ok to be recognised by your current avatar and you don't need to change.
Lots of things to think about if you change.
Can someone avatarize this for me please?

I know how to make things transparent on photoshop. I just don't understand why I'm still getting a white background instead of transparency. I tried saving a picture with a transparent background as a .png AND a .gif and I'm still getting the same result. Halp?

This shows up as transparent on imgur but not here. Ahhh.
Edit: I got it.
! It was the incorrect dimensions that were making the background white.

I'm gonna take a wild guess you are uploading an image that is transparent to GAF, but it is too big. Causing it to be resized and in the process get a white background? I'm not having a go =], its a quirk of the image system. If this is the case you aren't the first one =P. I may let Gromph know and see if he can tweak the system.
Here it is resized with another one with a bit cut out the top that I think was missed/forgotten.
Who knows if you still need it, but here's one.
Or something that's a bit more transparent.

If you would like the head cut out let me know, and I'll figure out which bits are his head or not =P

Nah, it's perfect, thanks!
I felt it was easier to just copy the whole body over onto the background, there's not much identifiable once you have changed the hair, covered the face and changed the bikini =P
If you would like someone to actually take over all the elements over then maybe someone else will oblige =]
Hmmm... anyone want to try and make me an avatar of the girl's face/head in the middle of this poster. Try and include her hair, but none of the words that surround it. I'd appreciate it. I think I might be ready for a new Olive avatar.

No, it was a nice try but I was looking more of like a masking layer for the watermelon tankini and to simply make the hair red with the mask shopped in.. or handcrafted..
thanks anyway.

The logo doesn't really look good when shrunk down =/
If there is something else you would like me to try let me know =]
(First image is just a black border on your avatar with no logo)

Can someone try and isolate Ash for me in the picture below? I'd like to get his shotgun and chainsaw in the pic at the least. I know it is a bit long though. If it's too hard to isolate him just a simple crop will do.
I'm looking for some advice from all you avatar making pros on here. I'm a total dunce when it comes to photo editing, even basic shit like making avatars.
Been editing a few avatars just for kicks. Do these look fine as far as image quality and whatnot despite only using paint.net?
source photo one
avatar one
source photo two
avatar two
(I know, this is a dumb thing to worry about it, but I'm trying to get this right, lol)

They look fine to me as far as image quality goes but I'm no expert. You have a great source image so it's not a problem. Some sources that show up here are pretty bad quality but when you scaled them to 100 x 120 you will lose a lot of the details so it sort of balances out.
I tend to focus more on the how to frame the avatar, what details to include and which to leave out.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
If you're using paint.net it's better to find a source photo somewhat close to the size you want. If you begin with a very large source, the software will chew it up when you size it down, and you'll end up with something jaggy looking.
Yours seems fine though. You can resize in the program, sometimes quite a bit without ill effect, but the bigger, nicer images tend to look shittier when you shrink them.
Moral of story: Paint.net sucks but it's better than MS Paint, so... I guess there's that.
They look fine quality wise. I'd maybe of zoomed out a bit more and added a small 1 pixel black border round the outside. but thats just preference. Using big Images is very helpful when editing and cutting out backgrounds. And its just good all round as you can just size them down anyway. They will pixelate but the image wont lose quality to its scale. Only if you size it down then scale it back up will you get what the everyday person calls pixelation.
