A good avatar is easyist to get, if you know how to make your own. With these easy steps you can make an avatar out of any picture with only the standard paint program that comes on any computer.
Step one: find the picture youn want, smaller is better, but a large one might work, it will just look less good when done. Open the file in paint.
Step two: take and open the attached frame.
Step three: chose select all, and copy in the edit tab of the frame file. Then go to the other picture, click on the select button on the tool bar. There will be two options bellow the tool bar, click the bottom one. Then select paste.
Step four: You can now see how much of your picture will fit in a 90x90 frame. If your picture is too big to get the intended part of the image into the frame, then resise the picture to a more appropriate size (selsct strech/skew under image.)
Step five: once it is the right size, place the frame over the desired part of the photo, and crop the area outside of the black lines out.
That should work, but if you have a problem, just post the pic here, and I will try and do it for you. Hope that helps

Edit: the frame didnt appear to come through, I dont know what the deal is with that.
