My Avatar fell down and can't get up!

Hi guys, i had a similar problem a few weeks ago, but couldnt find the original artwork, so i had make a new custom avatar for me...

What you can do is grab any GIF or JPG file, and open it in Paintbrush (yeah that ugly program).

Then click CTRL+E and put 120 pixels as the default size format.
After that go to SAVE AS... and choose JPG file type.

Then you should upload it and keep it rolling...

BTW... You can tell me how cool my new avatar is !!!

I like it but, what the hell is it?

That symbol is the brand new insignia of the Mexican diplomatic council, it is part of the eagle that is in the Mexican Flag... (just like the Canadian Maple Leaf... but this is more steticied...

Well, originally it was white background and with green and red laces in the lower part... the only thing i did was to emboss it, and make a negative impression of it (so it would be more Pirateden like !!!)

enjoy...

Thats odd !!!

Well, for that you must go ti the SAVE AS... not only SAVE...

If you select only save, it will save it in the old image format.

When you select SAVE AS... there will be a combo box under the text box (where you type the filename). and you can select many formats...

I guess you went with the "plain save" option right ???

Keep me posted !
