    Default Avatars/icons you've made

    I've recently gotten into an icon making craze and desperately want to share.

    I'm just going to pull out a few (of the over 150 I've made...) You can see the rest here. These are from 2000ad and old Batman comics.



    (Feel free to use any / alter any of them.)

    Anybody else have any to share?

    Those are some nifty icons you've made, SilverTygerGirl. I always admire those, but somehow whenever I try to crop an image I like it ends up looking like an armless blind child had attempted to do it. I just don't seem to have the eye for it, I guess.

    I suppose I have something of an unfair advantage, being a designer, but I've noticed that some people are just really good at icons. I'm not. I can crop and do a bit of animation and that's about it.

    Thanks for sharing - I really like a lot of the icons on your site.

    I'm a total novice at working with images and will probably remain that way, although I would love to become more facile if only I had the time. I'm well aware that my current avatar is out of focus, badly cropped, and lacking in color - I am going to replace it soon.

    Practice is the only remedy, but feel free to use one of mine until then.
