We can do custom avatars again. Would any of you like a hand making one to use?

I already made a Scott Olsen one that someone has been asking for in their sigline. Any of you are welcome to use it if you like

For your own custom avatar, just post your source pic (or even a general idea) here.

I got this off google images (any one like this would do):

My daughter formatted this for me to use as an avatar on DU2. I can't find where she saved it. She's away at college and won't be home again until April, so I'd appreciate it if you could help me out as I'm an idiot when it comes to these things.

That little retro B/W owl is the best one yet! That's the one I'm going to use. Someone else can take the brown owl if they want it.

Okay, that's enough for me

Thanks so much!

The way you're using it now, your face is crushed left to right.
