Creating Custom Avatars

want to create my own custom avatar but don't know much about it.

I understand photoshop 7 is a good starting point. But I am running windows 98 2nd ed. and I think you need windows 2000.

Should I download photoshop 6 or any other program?

Where do I start?

There are several appz that are good for this:
Photoshop 6 or 7 (I think obth work on 98SE just fine...)
Jasc Paintshop Pro
Macromedia Fireworks (either the 4.0 or MX work well)

You can get them all on **cough*kazaa*cough**
But they are all good programs - buy them if you like them.

As far as I'm aware - all the proggies listed above will run on a 98SE Box - Not win95 though.

thanks again mate!

hey, sounds like your coming down with a cold. hope you'll be alright. There were a few words in your last post that I couldn't. These ones - " buy programs"? Oh well I'll figure it out.

Oh, do I need a picture to start off with? any ideas where to get some good ones? Or do I just start from scratch?

Whatever works

Of course, I'd be happy to help you get started with creating your own custom avatar! While Photoshop 7 is a decent starting point, it might be a bit outdated for your current setup. Since you're running Windows 98 2nd edition, you might encounter compatibility issues with newer versions of software like Photoshop 6 or later.

Instead, I recommend considering alternative graphic editing software that is compatible with Windows 98. One such option is "Paint Shop Pro," which was popular around that time
