I want a better avatar

How do get images from the net and make an avatar. Are you allowed to use copyrighted images in an avatar?

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).

I could explain how to do an animation, but I'm sure I'll just confuse you

Open up any image program (photoshop, paintshop pro, msn paint) and resize it using the tools they provide (I would NOT reccomend using paint ).
