Dear Rickabilly, Pirate Paul And Frenchy Cat....

How Did You Guys Come Up With The AWESOME Avatars?
I mean, How Did You Make Them? The Flames in the Background, the double
photo, and the class one of Animal on the drums?
Is this Difficult to do? I Want One! Any Trade Secrets?

I obtained mine through complete and utter thievery. If you have an avatar you're looking to trick out, see Pirate Paul. As the kids these days (or 5 years ago) say, "He's got mad skillz, yo!"

I use PhotoShop/ImageReady to create avatars. I really don't know too much about it and a lot of it can be trial and error but the more you use PhotoShop/ImageReady the easier it becomes.

I did search the web and "borrowed" the flames image for my Red Hot & Live and FrenchyCat's avatar though, but for most of the others I have took some time and created them all by myself

Here are some of the avatars I've made.

Feel free to use any of them but everytime you look at them - Think of me... I think there's a song in there somewhere



Cheers PP

Thanks for the kind "street" words Rickabilly

Thank Guys!
Oh Those Are Legend Paul!
I will have to have a go on photoshop and look up the ImageReady.
I asked my Daughter Rach (as she's normally a whizz on the puter)
but she didn't have a clue!
About the Avatars:
Do you just paste the properties onto an image link to continue making
them work or will that just kinda paste a static picture?
Awesome Art Paul! We need a thread on here showing all your work...
next to Rick's fantastic book of posts.
btw - I printed off the 'Setzer on the Mount' pic and sent it to my brother
at xmas. He was WELL Pleased with it!

sorry, I didn't post, I was out a couple of days.
Regarding my avatar, as it was said, our Legend Pirate Paul improved my pic (that I found I don't remember where but it's rare and cool). I love it and I can thank again the rockinest in the galaxy for his great job!!

FrenchyCat

Gotta agree with the tributes to the one and only Pirate Paul! He sure knows his way around that Photoshop thingy!

Thanks for the kind words Kiki but a little bird (or should that be a macaw) told me that you know a thing or two about PhotoShop too!

Cheers again and good to see you back in the lounge!

Cheers PP

You always make me smile, Pirate Paul...thanks.
