{How-To} Make great Avatars and Signatures on Paint!

[Webkinzgurl23]

You want to make something like this?
Then I'll teach ya! Most of this credit goes to an Awesome friend, Crystal00000, she taught me some of this.
1st step:
You want to go to Glitter Graphics: your resource for Myspace graphics and Myspace layouts! and click on the Moonlight picture(like the example) and click on Download Image.

Now, when the screen comes up, right click and click save image.

When this other screen pops up, save it to your desktop

Now, go to your desktop and click on the image

The image should come up on Paint like this

Now, go the the Edit Avatar part of WI and save a picture of a Webkinz you want on your desktop. Now, on Paint, go to Paste From

Now, the Webkinz image should appear, then you should move it to the side like this

Then choose the pick color(It looks like a dropper) thing, or just click black on the color pallet, then color in the white part to make it blend in with the black.--Don't forget to save the picture as JPEG(JPG, etc)

Now, go to Upload or choose an image - GlitterFly.com and upload the picture from paint and put any glitter you want on the picture. Type in your text and click save and download.


There should be a code for Message boards and forums. If you'd like, you can upload your examples here if you'd like! Thank you for taking your time.

Your welcome

I have a final word of advice for your guide, last line of all: Instead of linking directly from Glitterfy or tinypic, download your finished avatar to your computer and save it to your own hard drive. Then, when you go to User CP and Edit your Avatar, choose option #2, browse your computer and upload directly from your computer to WI. In this way, if you change your avatar, and ever want to use this one again, it will be readily available for you on your computer. You won't have to look for it.

Well actually, in order to download it to Tinypic,

Either way, great guide!
