Avatar question (little picture, not motion picture)

Sign in to disble this ad
My current avatar is my family crest, which I like, but I'd like to alter it so the white background is the same bluish color as the rest of the webpage header. Can anybody walk me through how to do that? I'm bored.....

Open you avatar image in whichever program you use to edit photos. Or even paint. Use the 'sample color' (not sure what its called) tool and use it on the TB background. Now use the 'fill' tool to fill your background with said color.

No problem. I found it easier to actually do myself than try and explain it sufficiently.

Well, I still couldn't figure out how to fill the color in to my avatar myself, so I copied the one MM attached and loaded it that way. Thanks for the assist!

Where's the best place to find a Luddite avatar?
