Hi folks

OK - I'm now....a subscriber (gasp!)

Can anyone shed some light on how I assign an avatar image here in allakhazam please? Any tips on where to get some cool suitable images would also be appreciated.

Ta very much


1st Sugestion & Easiest to do

Welp you can simply search the web & find a pic that is 80x80 in height & width, and save it to your pc, by clicking your mouse over pic, when you find the pic you want, and
Save Image As..
save image in Document, Pictures, or a new folder, on your PC, you are now done with your pic, it's rdy to add to Allakhazam & upload it to SWG.Allakhazam.

go to How to add the avatar to your Allakhazam if you use a pic from online
-----------------------------------------------------------------
or you can make your own, thats what i did.


2nd Sugestion & Little more personalized for your char
I took a screenshot from SWG, then i cut it use'n Edit Feature in Windows XP.

You take your pic/screenshot, from your pc, don't forget what file it's in, i usually move the pic i edit to diff folder, makes it easier to find, and edit, without hurt'n any SWG files
NOTE:
Make sure the screenshot from SWG, is same size, like 700x700, or 500x500, & etc. or it's gonna look pretty funny resized

Now you will have to Re-Size the pic to 80 x 80, this can't be done with the edit feature in Windows, the pic will have to be re-sized, my suggestion is to use:
http://studio.imagemagick.org/MagickStudio/scripts/MagickStudio.cgi

This progam is free to use
when on the site, you click
Filename: Browse
Click the pic in your folder, you wish to shrink
Then Click
View
give a sec to load pic
Now it will give you a list of options at the top, just click on
Resize
give a sec to load pic
under
Image size:
type in
80x80
Then click the button
Sample
The go to top & click
Output
Then on this page, click
Format:

then click
single file
and then
Output
Click on the thumbnail of your picture
then click on the picture, with your mouse, it'll give you the option
Save Image As..
save image in new folder, you are now done with your pic, it's rdy to add to Allakhazam
