Members Gregory B. Moody Posted October 9, 2006 Members Report Posted October 9, 2006 NOW WE ARE COOKING WITH GAS !!! Will try to make pictures of the flower and send to you... Thanks, Greg alternately...if the only reason you want a gif editor...is so that you can make a single avatar just for this site....you could email me the pictures to include in the gif (named in order of appearance i.e. pic1, pic2, pic3, etc..) and i could create one for you Quote
Members dsenette Posted October 9, 2006 Members Report Posted October 9, 2006 for the pictures you're sending me...make sure they're of the quality that you want....i can do some file size manipulation to make the image small enough to be usable...but anything i do to shrink the file will make the image a little lower in quality...so if i start out with a substandard pic...the final result will be worse Quote "We are all blind men touching an elephant.

Members Gregory B. Moody Posted October 9, 2006 Members Report Posted October 9, 2006 No problem , I will send HQ closeups of what I do....

Moderator Johanna Posted October 10, 2006 Moderator Report Posted October 10, 2006 i do however agree that if admin could find a "stock avatar pack" that at least remotely resembled leather working...that would be neat...but that's pretty difficult to find... The avatar packs on this board are the standard IPB ones, however, any picture can be uploaded as an avatar. Irfanview is a free graphics editor if you need to crop or shrink a picture. You can't demonstrate leather carving in an avatar- too many constraints. However, the monkey posseses great Photoshop skill, and I'm sure you could get a cool custom avatar from him. But if you want someone to see you work, the avatar spot isn't the place to do it, and moving (animated) avatars are so annoying to some people that the board even has an option to disable them. If you want to do a demonstration, Greg, let's just film it, upload it with it's own link and do it right. In fact, if anyone wants to do any tutorials, I'll set up a library dedicated to archiving. Hey, dsenette, if you happen to see any good leatherworking avatar packs on the 'net, snag them for me, please? The closest I came was carpentry.

Members Gregory B. Moody Posted October 10, 2006 Members Report Posted October 10, 2006 Actually I was wanting the moving Gif as avatar on the Old Diesel Forum .... moving (animated) avatars are so annoying to some people Johanna Quote
Moderator Johanna Posted October 10, 2006 Moderator Report Posted October 10, 2006 My father did a nifty flower using only a camo tool... maybe 12 or 16 strokes... image resolution can be adjusted after the fact if it is too big a file... but what are the steps ... I assume jpeg is ok for the original ? why could we not put a stationary camera above a flower in the process of being made... then accumulate them to a GIF file ? I misunderstood. But I think it would be great to have videos of leatherworkers in action available on the site. Pictures do say a thousand words. Avatars are too small to do a project like that justice.
