| Hello! I've been wanting to learn how to make avitars and signatures for people and I was just wondering if anyone could give me advice on what programs to use and how to use them and such. Once I learn I would probably start taking requests  Thanks guys! It means a lot to me!  |

| I use Photoshop, but it took me years to be where I'm at. You'll probably want to use Youtube Tutorials first. |

| To start out, trying using Gimp. It's a free program similar to Photoshop. A good start. |

| I use the free program Picasa from Google, but it doesn't do gifs or anything super fancy XD |

| I use photoshop as well and I do everything through experimentation and tutorials posted online. Tutorials are a very big help. |

| Yeah I've started look at tutorials too, mostly for coloring though but they have been a great help I use paint tool sai for my coloring's and I'm guessing you could use it for siggies and avatars too...you just gotta mess around with it..I've have Sai for months and I just started using it/getting the hang of it like last week XD |

| I've used PSP, GIMP, Photoshop, MGI.. I prefer Photoshop the most, although MGI is the best for making Sprites. I actually never used tutorials, though I'm probably going to do such to learn the animation part. Most of everything I've done is trial & error. I also really love to use overlays, so there is that. I've never heard of InkScape though.  |
