Got it? Good. Now let's get drawing. Grab your pen tool and trace out the shape of Aang's head, including those big ears of his. You may find it easiest to start at either the top of an ear or the point of his chin, anywhere where there's a reasonably hard angle. For the best results with the pen tool, you always want to draw the sshape using the fewest points possible.

1. If you save your avatar as .psd-file� You can open them for programs like Messenger too? 2. Finally some REAL beginner-shit!

First you're going to create the spaceship in Photoshop and then load it into Image ready to be animated. You can create it all in Image Ready if you like.

First, we're going to make the shapes for the Tetris avatar in Photoshop, and then we're going to load the saved PSD file into Image Ready, to animate it. When you're finished, you should have an animated GIF, looking life a mini Tetris game is being played, that you can use as an avatar.

This is a very easy and simple tutorial to just add a nice and different affect to normal images. This works well with avatars and Sigs. So just give it a try :D

Lastly, you need to play around with the colours. You may play around with the colour balance, the hue and saturation or you can add a colour layer. We prefer adding Colour Balance adjustment layer to the whole, so we can always undo it. Add several to get multiple colours into your image instead of just one colour in several hues. Now, choose whichever part of the image you like best and crop it. A popular size for avatars is 450 by 35, link buttons are a standard 88 by 31. Add a border, text, whatever you like.

In this tutorial, I’ll step you through how to create an anime avatar in Photoshop CS3.
