I wanted to have a picture of my pets, my old avatar was also a cat with link and I didn't want to change too much.

Yes, but I don't know how to do an avatar at 140 pixels.


go to a image customization program(such as paint or photoshop) and use stretch/skew, this will do the pixel resizing without cutting the image to were it shows a part of what you want.

Wolves are cool, and it fits well with my username, so I picked it.

Because people kept on bugging me about Gaia Online with my old one, and considering I'm not part of it, it started to annoy me, so I changed my avatar.

I like my avatar, and really bad grammar aggravates me. I don't mind a few missed periods or a screwed up word, but when the sentence becomes impossible to read...

Please, do not be to harsh on us ignorants. We try hard. Surely trying is more important than the correct grammer? :)

My current avatar is from Carl Spitzweg's painting the "Bookworm" because
I always got my nose buried in a book when I'm not working or posting to WP. :lol:

Trying is good enough, unless you try (like KBABZ is kindly demonstrating) to be awful.

I love Glottis from the game Grim Fandango and I can't bear to get rid of him.
