Shakara,
I've done an icon for you, and one already exists- try /icon shakara in the chat room and then try again with a 1 after shakara to see what happens (you'll need to post messages!).

does anyone fancy telling me how to create these gifs? i have paint shop pro at work and photoshop at home so i'm sure i can do it if someone explains it to me. or, if there is some really nice, kind individual out there that fancies producing a teeny-mek icon for me i'd really appreciate it :o)

I can help...
you need to create the icon in PSP and reduce the size (or start by creating the image at) 32x32 pixels.
Then save the icon as a gif.
Then mail it to the email address in the top message. It might be an idea to call the icon your login name. Then change your icon in the chatroom.
If you need more step-by-step details let me know (I can also create one for you)

Here's a teenymek

Type "/icon teenymek" in the chat room.
