How do I make my avatar transparent? How do I change name? And how do I get a .gif as an avatar?
GIMP or Paint.NET or if you have it Photoshop. You can't You can't.
1. You edit it with photoshop, delete the background and save as .png. 2. You dont. 3. You dont. Goddamnit Yellowninja
Why can't I get a .gif? And I [B]have[/B] edited the photo with PS and then saved with a .png.. Just take the magic eraser and bam.. But still stays white in FP.
But i saw a few people with animated avatars.. They are not gold or someting too.
Its called an .apng. [editline]01:11PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Limee;16644397]Why can't I get a .gif? And I [B]have[/B] edited the photo with PS and then saved with a .png..

Arg damn. And I'll try.. Thanks.
If you want an animated avatar then use the APNG Editor addon for Firefox
One last question I think.. Where is the transparency setting on Photoshop?
Im not sure, I use Paint.NET
Resize your avatar to exactly 80x80 pixels. If you don't the site will resize for you, thus losing the transparency.
Limee if it is a still picture such as the one you're using at the moment upload it and I'm sure someone such as myself can make it transparent for you.
