Pirate Avatars and Sigs

[icemage]

I see lots of avatars and signatures with other pirates' pictures on them. I was wondering how do get them. Do you take a screenshot then edit it? It is not DxD or something where you can see your stats. Can anyone post on this thread how?

Thanks!

Ok... I'll attempt to try this...

First you need to review Zeppers Image Guide. You need to get a pic of your pirate from the game - and the guide tells you how to take the pic - then find it - then open it in MS Paint.

Second - once you have your pic open in MS Paint, you need to Cut your Pirates head out of the image. On the Tools Bar of MS Paint - the Top/Right Tool is the Selection Tool. Click it then Click and Drag a box around your Pirates Head (or whatever you want as the image).

Click the Edit Menu in MS Paint once selected (make sure its mostly a square box - or when posted here it will become distorted) and click the Copy Option. Click the File Menu and Click the New Option (if the program asks you to save your image - Click NO as we do not need the other pic now). With the new 'blank' piece of paper - Click on the Edit Menu then Click Paste Option. Your pirate head will now be on the page in the corner - you must now Click and Drag the Right and Bottom Sides to the pic (if there is extra white space) but putting you mouse on the Drag Boxes on the edge of the Page then do the Click and Drag.

Then Click the File menu then Click the Save As Option. When the file box appears - On the Left Click the Desktop Option, at the bottom change the File Option from BMP to JPG, then type in a Name of you image just above that, then Click the Save Button...

Now you Have an Avatar.... but now you must get it here to select it.

Go you your UserCP Page and on the left menu Click the Edit Avatar Option. At the botton Option 2 allows you to get your new Avatar from your computer. Click on the Browse Button... then when the File Box appears Click the Desktop on the left - your image shoud be in the box. Double Click the image and it should load it.

I think thats it (my fingers are tired now )
