ive always wondered how to make avy's
 
Why do you make it so hard? Heres what I use and it takes about 1/3 of the time it takes to make them like you do.

1. Open video file with windows movie maker (start/programs/accessories/windows movie maker) cut out the parts you want.(5-8 seconds of video unless you are real good at compression) save as an AVI file on your desktop.

2. Open file with Adobe imageready and it will cut out every other frame for you. Resize and crop untill you get down to 60x60, Once you get it down to about 110-120 frames, then use these settings :

You may have to add some lossy or fiddle with it and it shows you in the image window how big your file size will be.

Doing it this way takes me no longer than 4 minutes and you don't have to worry about the adware/spyware bundled with all the software above.

 
grittyman: bayarea thought me also how to make avatars(sig)

when u converted the file with winmpg it made that.on the video. bc its a trial version.

a thing he forgot was go to www.freeserials.com and u can make most all trial software the real version

ummm.....if you actually read what i put....the directions arent hard at all....it may look long.....but its cuz i try and explain every detail so theres no room for error
your way may be quicker or whatever.....but thats my way....and thats the only way i knew how to explain it...if youd like to help out..id appreciate it much

Quote:
I might got some stuff to add to this...good stuff Bay. I can make borders with Ulead, but they can't be very complex.

I just can't take avatars this serious.

You're worse with avatars than I was with sigs last year.

Thanks...I'm about to try to make one.

*EDIT...It came out ok for my first try I guess.
 
thats very long and helpful, your effort is mos def comendable, but you do need to get a life. I mean come on, that how long did that take you? So may print screens and then explanations fort each thing and not to mention doing it in the first place.

This should go in the archives though
no one does the ipod thing for free so........do one for me and ill paypal you 20 bucks!

heres the link to my ipod referral:

Shadi, the problem with yours is that it's 60 x 37, not 60 x 60, therefore making it stretched out.
