How to make a clear avi pic
First you will need to take a screen shot. I can not take a screen shot of how to do this so I will try to explain it here. Open your graphics program. Minimize it at the bottom of your screen for you will need this in just a minute. If you do not have one click HERE to download Gimp. Next you need to get your avatar into a green room or the bionic white room. Making sure your outfit does NOT blend with the color of the room. Strike the pose of your choice. Stretch your screen out as large as it will go (this will be different sizes depending on the size of your monitor). Next find the button on your keyboard that says PRTSC. This is your print screen button. Note: on some keyboards it will actually say print screen. After dressing up your avi and striking the pose of your choice press your print screen button, watch the cursor here and if for some reason it does not jump then you may use a combination of CTRL+PRTSC or ALT+PRTSC. Then restore your graphics program and hit CTRL+V to paste as a new image or go to Edit: Paste as new image or Edit: Paste as: New Image. Depending on how your program lists this in the Edit drop down. This will bring up your entire screen shot in your graphics program. Grab your cropping tool and crop the screen shot down to size. Basically this means take out all the extra stuff and have mainly your avatar and some of the green/white background.
