There are so many people with great Avatars on TT. I was wondering what programs you are using to make them.  I do have to update mine, but don't have the time at thoe moment

I use heaps of different programs...most people use photoshop but there are also many other design programs out there that are easy and fun to use...Ulead is another company.  There was another post once about design elements that people use to add to their avatars.  Scrapbooking sites are great for these, and clipart.
If you need any help sing out, I'm still learning but have made quite a few already.

I have Photoshop CS2 now if I can just learn to do everything it does. Time if only there was more time in the day.

I would love to learn how to animate parts of the avatar like the fairies in Sarah's avatar. Sarah I just love your avatar.

Hugs,
