I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I really like moving icons - you know, the ones that change instead of just being one picture - but I don't have the software to make my own. Anyone know how I can do it?

Capabilities kinda vary from program to program for animated gifs - there can be the ones with tons of frames like yours right now that's basically taken right off of a video clip with some application or other, or there's the old school version like the few I've made that flick between various stills. What I can do is put the stills together and make it animated like that if you have some ready. I haven't done any exploring in the way of free programs you might be able to download to put them together, but that's always a possibility to look for...

That'd be great! Can I e-mail them to you? What size do they need to be?

100x100 pixels is the standard largest size for Proboards and a lot of other places. Sure thing, email away!

Is there any limit on the number of pictures it can show?

Not really...it just depends on how big of a filesize you might want to have, I suppose. Or how long of an avatar someone would be willing to sit through. ;D

The first one went down extremely well ;D The people on the forum actually declared it National Mozo Month.
(Mozo Zierski is my nickname on that forum, just to explain...)

Here's your next! Even though I don't have the inside knowledge, it's still hilarious...  EDIT: D'oh. Silly Jandalf, forgetting all about GIMP. Go to www.gimp.org, and you can download the free image editing software that also apparently allows you to make animated gifs, though I can't recall whether you need to download a separate plugin for that feature or not. But yup, all free and good... |

Aww... tell her hi for me! (and that making pictures change doesn't really call for adoration, but I'm not picky when it comes to making friends...) Here are the latest two... if the first one's too quick, just let me know.   |

Zeeeeeeeeeee! I can't believe I missed this thread... those avatars are SO neat. Sheesh, the new doctor IS hot... anyway.
XD
I want some too, but I have no stills, not yet anyway. Can I call tap-tap on a request?

There are websites all over the net with stills from the second series - go nuts!

I know, but I'm a loser and don't know where they are... if I did I am sure that I would have posted stuff by now, and also.... I haven't seen the second series so I don't know the jokes yet.
XD
I was thinking of using stuff from like Potc 2 or something...
