Mine rarely changes, as I've only had 3:

1. A freeze-frame from a 1989 episode of Another World, it featured Cass and Frankie at a baseball game. I used this to show how much I love soap operas.

2. Gus, from Cinderella. Felt like it.

3. Donald reading a book. Kram actually sent me an e-mail saying "HERE'S YOUR NEW AVATAR, AND YOU'RE GOING TO USE IT AND YOU'RE GOING TO ENJOY IT!" :lol:

Escapay (who, along with Kram, had been internet-less for the entire week because of some weird virus problems, and we had to reset our modem.)

Well its ummm, Mickey Mouse as the sorcers apprentice and this is a Disney site, and Fantasia is my favorite Disney movie. Besides Luke would probably get upset if i put pictures of nekid women up.

Mine changes whenever I feel like it or get sick of seeing it. Hmmm, so far I had...

1) A CGI Mickey
2) Cinderella Castle at WDW
3) Frontierland (Disneyland) logo with Cowboy Mickey (it was a Disney pin, which make great avatars b/c of their convenient sizes).
4) Goofy in scuba gear looking at a fish upsidedown (that is Goofy is upside down)*
5) Chef Mickey with a burger*
6) Kermit with Mickey Ears
7) Currently it is what you see now (unless I've changed it, which will most likely happen in a few weeks or months). I got the design from a Disney Visa Card Brochure and edited it with ArcSoft PhotoStudio. I replaced a happy family in a spinning teacup with Kermit b/c I love muppets too.

I'm not very good at deciding an avatar and I'm either not computer-literate enough or not interested enough to find my own avatar outside of the lovely ones Luke provides :D . I like Kramer and am waiting for Seinfeld Season DVDs.
What would this wretched world be like without Disney?

I think mine is pretty self explanatory.

But I picked Snow White because I have dark hair and pale white skin. I've also played her before.

Thought of that after I hit "Submit" didn't feel like editing...but upon first reading, that post really throws you, no? Or is it just me?

Does anyone know where I can find some good "Wicked" avatars? Or is there any way to make them into jpg files or whatever to make them work here?

I've only been able to find bitmap or whatever...I'm not good with computer terms at all.

Mine is Mighty Mouse, the "other" most powerful mouse in the world. I used to watch the Mighty Mouse shorts on TV when I was a child, and I liked them a lot.
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.

Okay, more technical questions:

1. How come if a google image says .jpg, when I save it, it becomes a bitmap image, and I can't use it?

2. How can I put a picture in the signature?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

And Churafairy-that's a great site! Couldn't find Wicked, but I'll definitely use it in the future!

Hmmm. Perhaps the little "save file as" pop-up box on the save screen has .bmp selected? If it does, just change it to .jpg. If that's not it, I'm not sure.

Just host the picture somewhere and use BBCode in your signature line. Example (spaces put in so I don't actually use the code):

Hopefully this helps. :)

Even if this doesn't work, thank you very much!

If my avatar changes anytime soon, you know who to thank!
