I Reworked My Avatar

Tuesday, July 3, 2012 by Jafo | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Kinda took forever to get around to it....

The original dated back to 2001 .... was a 64x64 8bit bmp .... now a 100x100 8bit png - so it has trans.

It's still a 'cartoon' - something I drew way back when [about 93, I think] ... for my involvement in Motor Racing [F1, etc].

If I'm ever washed up on a beach somewhere [which isn't impossible as I don't swim] I can always be recognized...as the graphic was my first tattoo [left shoulder].

 

I don't do too much with trans images, layers, etc ....not 'til I started messing with the complexities of aircraft skinning....

Never too late to learn... could prevent excess water in the lungs some day.

Good job Jafo.  And I can't swim either. Heck, that's why they made boats.

Yes it is. Just to bad some improvements can't be made in real life.
