Any bored people with avatar creator skills?
I have a .gif I would like to see if could be made into a custom avatar for me - it's Tenniel's White Rabbit dressed as a herald. Thx.

7. Try it anyway
If it is a little to big it gets resized. That is why mine is a little distorted.

9. Here you go. 48x48


When resizing gifs it's best to convert to RGB from indexed color before resizing.

12. You might want to crop it at the waist first. Probably an artistic crime,
but with the face that small, it's going to look like a flea at avatar size unless you do.

3. I gave it a quick try, but I'm no expert on this
When I tried to scale it down, it became pretty much unrecognizable. Not really sure what to about that.
