Title: You creative types!
Post by: Trout on 25 June, 2002, 09:47:52 PM
Troutman needs help.

I love the new using-icons thing, but badly need a personalised one.

Does anyone have the ability to make me a wee trout icon for my own personal use?

Sadly, I'm clueless on computers and can't do it myself.

I'd be ever so grateful to a generous fellow Squaxx.

I can do you a photo, a cartoon or copy Judge Fish from somewhere (He might not be a trout but he was the gruddamn law!)

Dear Trout, I have made two possible trouts and sent them to wake at (binaries@2000adonline.com) I hope you like!

Dear Trout,

Judge Fish might be a better idea. I don't mind if you choose Smiley's suggestion!

Nice.

Wake if I wanted to make my own icon, is that okay (assuming it's not obscene), what size should it be and what do I do to get it next to my name?

If this info's on the board already, I'd be grateful if you pointed me to it.

Cheers

Paul

Email me a 32x32 pixel gif and I'll upload it.



Once it's there, go to the chat room. Type /icon x to set your icon to x.gif.

Dear Wake,

I'm sorry the trouts I sent were JPGs. Thank you for converting them.

Icon sent. Try the chatroom on thursday.
Title: Re: You creative types!
Post by: Wake on 26 June, 2002, 01:47:19 PM
How about this one... /icon satchmo

The story is online in the Thrillviewer so no scanning was required. However, if you reduce the whole panel, or even the whole of Satchmo to 32x32 to can't see anything.

*Sniff* I'm overcome with emotion...

I am sincerely and immensely grateful to all you valiant Squaxx who have helped me out.

I couldn't log on for a day or so, so I was delighted to discover so much creative help when I did.

Many thanks for the Judge Fish icon, which I have happily adopted as my own.

Christophe, the little trouts are excellent but I opted for Fish because he's a 2K character. Maybe somethingfishy (the artist formerly known as Trebell) would like to take up one of yours.

I feel very lucky to be part of such a generous bunch of Earthlets. (Am I overdoing it now?)

And finally, here is my inaugural bellow, the first of many, of -

ALL HAIL DEPUTY CHIEF JUDGE TROUT!

Soon I will begin passing judgements that no-one can understand!

:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Dear Trout,

Fish is better, I agree. I'm sure I will find a use for the little trouts ;-)
