Eldritch Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 How can I use a custom avatar? I don't really like any of the lucasforum ones, and I see lots of people that have their own, so I was just wondering how I do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldritch Posted September 4, 2002 Author Share Posted September 4, 2002 Thanks for the help, and for the nice welcome. I've been a longtime viewer of the forum, just never had a reason to post anything until I seriously got into mapping. Hope to see you around. And Padanime, great avatars!

Darth-Nasty Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Originally posted by SivyB another new avatar for me, what do you think? <-------------- is that the little move obi did when he turned on his lightsaber? if so you should have have it pause at the end for a bit. (if you see what i mean) at the moment he it looks like he is using a new lightsaber technique and spinning it round like a maniac. very nice tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pad Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 ive got a great quality video of ep2 now, so i think i can make any scene in an av now. the only thing is, im usin gif movie gear and my trial period is almost over any suggestions what prog i should use? (free stuff i mean) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivy Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Originally posted by SivyB another new avatar for me, what do you think? <-------------- what about this one? i used movie gear too Padanime, i'm hoping it's like winzip and when your time is up you can still use it. Darth-Nasty, it is the scene just before he gets dragged by jango, i wanted to pause it but he never actually holds the saber with two hands so it looked silly.

ZBomber Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Yes, people, but I'm so talented, I'm making my own. Anyone can make a movie into an avatar, but you gotta be talented to make what I have. Clickie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
