Can someone help me with my avatar?

[fight4my3sons]

My five year old son drew this for me and I wanted to use it for my avatar. I tried to do it myself, but you can barely see it. I am really not good at anything other than copy and paste type of things. If any of you know how to make this show up better can you please help me out? Thanks!

1. That is an adorable drawing!

It makes me smile! :loveya: I have not yet attempted to make my own av, so I don't think I can help you there. I'm sure someone can, tho!

3. thanks

It was my first attempt also. I had to try. He made one to send to the campaign headquarters, same picture, but with the words 'go Obama go!' at the top. :) He was very excited when he saw the kids section on the Obama website and had to send a picture in. He loves that the Obama girls are just a little bit older than him and wanted to know if they could come over for a play date. :rofl:

7. a playdate!

2. Looks like you got it working.

Was there something you wanted different about it?

It's a cool pic. Got to love kid's drawings. :)

5. I didn't know if it could be clearer.

It was my first try at an avatar. I couldn't resist. Thanks, he does make some cool drawings now. Mostly Mario Kart, but he got excited when I showed him the kids section on the Obama website. :) All of my little guys are big fans of Obama. One of my twins loves the reggaeton Obama song and sings it over and over. :crazy:

10. Mine are too.

I have them programed. Why would any want McCain? He wants the war to go on FOR-EVAH! :rofl:

6. now make it smaller and it will show up better?

sorry if this is an obvious question. it was my first try...

[Ptah]

11. maybe

I guess it's not so good, sorry.

8. How about one of these?

[fight4my3sons]

12. these look great!

let me try them :)

[fight4my3sons]

13. I used the one on the right

I think it shows up a little better, but I guess when you decrease the size that much it gets lost. Maybe I'll put it in my signature line. thank you for your help!

9. check your pm

peace.

14. Is this what you wanted?

I didn't have any time to work on it (I have to mow the lawn.) I left the contrast alone, but cranked
up the color and cropped out the border so there is less white and more drawing. If you need something different just say the word and I'll see it during a break.

Edited to add: A better photo would help a lot. Take the artwork outside in the light and take another photo so the edges don't have a shadow and post that. I think that we could be more help then.

19. Thank you Mugu!

:hi:

20. Be sure to look again, I added one more that I think that you'll like better.

The colors aren't quite right, but I had to exaggerate them to make the Obama legible.

You're quite welcome.

Regards, Mugu

My last attempt, I really have to go mow.

[fight4my3sons]

21. thank you!

I used the new one that you added all the way to the right :)

15. I made it square

don't know if you want it that way or not. this version is about double the size of a DU avatar



this version is 48X48 (du avatar size - with a little heightened saturation)

[fight4my3sons]

16. the avatar size one is great because it is clear, but

it won't let me upload because it is 6.31KB and has to be 3KB. I don't know how to make it 3KB :shrug:

Thank you for the help!

18. this one is just under 3k on my computer
