I have an avatar that I really wanted. I actually have a site that has some really cool ones.. I could give it if you want.. but anyway, I saved the picture to my files and tried to get it on here. It's one of Gaia, but when I tried to use it I got a page that said "error, This site does not allow that type of use for personal photos or avatar settings" or something like that. Any help!?

At least you some sort of avatar.Karen made me avaar ages ago,and tried to explain how it used,but I didnt get it,still dont.Have to check again.

All I did was pick one off the internet. Saved it to my files. Then I went to the avatar settings and hit Browse, got my photos off of my folder and clicked something like "use this avatar" or whatever. I can't make avatars so I just do that. It works. The site I found my "avatars" at was

But thats where I found a lot of good ones. I can't find any for like anyone OTHER than Gaia from the old books. Like Ed or Sam. hmm.. ;)

I don't make Sam or Ed avatars, or Jake, because everyone is so confused on who portrays who. Like Some ppl think Josh Hartnett is a good Ed, but others still think that Josh is a good Jake.... it's confusing.

The people I could tell if you made an avatar is Ed and Sam. Those are, in my opinion, the best detailed in the story. I could see Sam like a prep looking college student and Ed as a skate rat. It's easy to tell who they are if someone made them

I can tell that this is a pretty darn old thread; ... Did you ever solve the problem? (I would have no idea on my own.)

If you need a program to get avatars to be accepted, I'd recommend www.irfanview.com' target='_blank'>www.irfanview.com. It can do so much in terms of image optimization. It doesn't edit, but it can blur, sharpen, resize, convert images, crop, etc. (Cropping is done by clickdragging a selection, doing Ctrl+C, then Ctrl+V, then saving that.)
