Hey there everyone! I think it's safe to assume I'm not the only individual on these forums that use MSN Messenger regularly to chat. For those who use it often and create avatars for themselves regularly, I created a useful tool (in my opinion) that simplifies a lot the Avatar creation process. The tool could not be used for this forum since the avatars it creates are all 96x96 pixels and this forum requires 80x80 maximum. The output avatars are saved as JPG files and are 96x96 pixels, which is the ideal height and width for MSN Messenger avatars. Here's the link: http://halamantariel.homeip.net/MSNavatar.exe It was written in Delphi and took me approximately 12 hours of programming. I don't think this is a fast time for programming, but it isn't slow either :) Enjoy this tool! Comments are always welcome! - Halamantariel *EDIT* I just finished the final work on the program. I added a drag and drop feature allowing images to be dragged and dropper into the program, making it easier and faster to use. The final version of the program is 1.6. It is now up at the same URL as above. Enjoy!

Wh.... huh... I think if people are making their own avatars, they'd know how to resize to 96x96 at least!
I like my "thank you"s in monetary form.
