Anyone who said the avatar they liked the best first gets it if they want it. Glad everyone likes them!
Need some Petrie icons. You've done very well with the transparency job.
Sorry. As I said, I didn't intend this to be a separate project. These are just ones I made for myself and I don't really need anymore. I'll try to make a Petrie one too. I can't make more than a couple one's of Spike though, seeing as they only show his whole body a few times in the newer sequels. I've tried making avatars of the older movies, and they didn't look very good.
Thank you for the compliment. Yeah, there is a big difference in transparency and quality between photoshop CS2 and CS3. This one was made in CS2 and I haven't touched it up yet with CS3. You can really tell:

I'm afraid that the magic wand tool just isn't very good for this sort of thing. CS3's quick selection tool does an almost perfect job selecting the background.
how you did that?
I used video snapshot genius to take the screenshots, then I put them into photoshop CS3 and took away the background. After that, I cropped and resized the image so it would comply with Petrie's image size restrictions. Believe me, when you take one of these avatars that's larger than it can be and the board automatically resizes it, it looks really bad, especially the one with text.
