Duckie's Graphics Thread

Postby DucksRMagical » Thursday 6 December 2007 12:06:53am

I love making graphics using my computer, so I thought I'd share them all with you. I've made them all using the Gimp, which is a free graphics program.

Some of the stuff I've made is Harry Potter related. Practically everything I've made has Benny in it. :lol: This is because most of the stuff I've made I use for avatars and signatures on other forums.

Benny wearing Godric's HP hat. (I used to have this as my avatar here).

PupBenedict Avatar (my username on most of the pet forums I'm on is PupBenedict)

If anyone wants an avatar that resembles the PupBenedict one, I'll make them one. Just tell me the colors and any little images you want on it. I've got fonts for all kinds of shapes, food, snow flakes, animals, a few magic-related things. Just ask and I'll let you know if I've got that font.

Thanks! :) You can do lots of stuff with it. Resize pics, make pics look like they were painted, turn things black and white, do other graphics that don't involve pics, animate stuff, plus other things that I haven't discovered yet. It's like Photoshop, but free.

www.gimp.org You can download it there. They just came out with a new version, but I haven't downloaded it yet. There are also tutorials and instructions on how to use it there.

I'm going to make a Christmas card on it sometime. I'll post it when I'm done.

Another avatar, I'm using it on a pet forum.
