Halloween Avatars

[Puzzler]

I love the Halloween avatar that was done for Robots!

[Puzzler]

I found this Snoopy Pumpkin for Halloween.  Do you think I should use it like it is or could someone with more skills than I add some to it...could it be madetaller with more area above Snoopy to watch "something" flying over, or maybe black sky with stars.  CBB & Klass, you both seem to have such a wonderful imagination when it comes to dressing up the Monkey's avatars.  Klass, I love what you did with your avatar!

When I couldn't get Puzzler's link to open, I searched for Snoopy/pumpkin and got it that way. The graphic you began with, Klaas, is a better resolution. If we're voting, I like yours better. 

BTW: Are you even IN a 12 step program to kick the speed? 
It's not working! 

OH! I saw the explanation of creating your avi, but was in a hurry (without aid) and wanted you to expand on making a transparency. I've had results that were transparent, but did it only with the marquee tool and then set the "feather" % to what I wanted before I "drag". That always makes the edges more transparent than the center, and I don't think that's what you did, is it?
Save yourself some time and don't be "techie" with the explanation...........remember, I don't really know ANYTHING about this program or computers in general! THANKS!

One more thing............if you missed this link I posted the other day, you just have to bookmark it:
http://www.hermans-plaatjes.nl/animatiepaginas/Animatieindex.htm

I don't know what language it's in (Dutch, I think), but I'm not sure you'd EVER need any more graphics for anything with it! "Halloween" is so you can find it, and lots of words make sense. A few are a surprise!

This is what I did.  Had to research to learn how to do transparencies.

1.  The photo needs to be a .gif but then you need to change the mode to RGB color.
2.  Then you click on LAYER then LAYER STYLE
3.  Then click on BLENDING OPTIONS
4.  Then all you have to do is play with the OPACITY slide moving it down until you have what you want. 

There are advanced options I haven't tried yet.
