i noticed one thing which seems popular here is requesting a custom avatar, and since the guy i was going to ask to do mine has stopped (kind of) i decided to make some of my own! i made a couple of simple ones using pixen on my mac, so post with specs (background, accessories etc) and i'll make them as soon as i can i just realised these are a bit small but the next ones will be bigger i promise
To let you know, I finished and it is on my art thread (There is a link in my signature (or just find "The work of wulld" in the fan-art section of the forums))
sure i'll give it a go tomorrow i use http://pixenapp.com/ but this is only for mac, i have also used gimp in the past
