Hi Cabbi!
I'm probably not one of the better avi makers in the guide, but here are some of the avi's I've made and liked if you want to use them.

I was about to say that i can't use the gothic lolita outfit since it shows the dress up bg in it.
But then I noticed that i can't use any of the outfits. TT ____TT You saved them all from the dress up screen, right? They're larger than the normal size of forum avatars.
I really hate to make you do more work, but can you equip and save them? > < A lot of them have EIs, so it might not be possible at this time... You can always resubmit them after the EIs are done evolving. @.x;
I think photobucket has a resizing tool so I can always play with that later. Maybe I'll try resizing them first before I make you resubmit. ^^;;


Oh no! I'm so sorry...that didn't even dawn on me sweatdrop I always just save them before I make a new avi and I didn't know that saved them bigger sweatdrop . I'll try to remake the ones I can for you and edit this post with them sweatdrop

Wellll... I'd rather have a saved image than a screen shot.


===
Here's a way to save an image without saving it to your computer first.
  • First, save your avatar.
  • View it in a thread in the forums. You can also just use your avatar in the header.
  • Right click the avatar. You'll see this: [x]
  • Click "Properties" at the end of the list. You'll see this: [x].
  • Copy the whole url you see by the red star. (Highlight the link, then press ctrl C)
  • Go to www.tinypic.com
  • Choose url for the file type. Paste the url (ctrl V). Click the big green upload button. :3
  • You get this. >3

Keep track of the links. I don't have an account on tinypic, so I don't know whether it keeps track of links for you if you make an account.

====
If you want to save the image to your computer, when you right click the avatar, choose "save image as." The option is by the green star. [x].
To upload it, you'd still go to tinypic.com.
Your File Type is image. You click "browse" and then find the picture you want.

====
I can tell ya how to screen shot too. XD I just don't want to make this post really big.

Azurae Skye: It's all good. <3 And you can take your time since I don't think I'll get to this part for a while... and I can always add new images in later. :3
I used to save images from the dress up screen too. xD ...Until I looked at them one day and saw that some of my images were larger than the others... > <

Ynattirb73: Thank you. <3 I appreciate all of the images. o 3o You almost filled up one whole page in the album, just two avatars short. xD

xl Inferno lx: Thank you~ :3
