| Do you know how to use FlashMX? I tried Flash, and it's sooooo complicated  . I find ImageReady easier for animations, it's good for beginners I guess.

| Animations are foreign to me. However, I DO know how to shrink images to the required 50x50 size.
How do you do animations?

| If you want an animated avatar, you can go to www.livejournal.com and search around for one you like. Then you can open it up in ImageReady and then resize it in there to 50*50 (LJ icons are 100*100).

| Technically, people aren't supposed to use things with a copyright without permission from the author/creator/owner of said copyright. It's stealing. But hey, everyone does it...
Oh yeah, & Teen Titans rocks!
