this is stupid.why do you all think it is bad?you got no reason
: : Please give your views on Chillies Avatar Maker.
: : This tool is being marketed as a way of stealing avatars from vp users,
: : It does this by capturing the avatar in a scalable box. The program can
: : also be used to capture and create avatars of web site artwork the way we
: : normally do with psp or photoshop.
: : Have a look and let me know what u think about it
: : http://www.zianet.com/talon/cam.htm
: : Should the guild discourage the use of this tool ?
: : Should the guild accept sites that create avatars using it ?
: : Is it a good tool for newbies to use to make avatars ?
: : Is the only thing wrong the marketing angle ?
: Well....I agree with be_witch. I was once a newbie,
: and I didn't have an Av Maker!!! I tried it myself,
: and I don't like it, personally. It takes the thrill
: out of making (scanning) a picture and turning it
: into an Avatar. I love the challenge of
: starting from scratch! :}
: And I am thoroughly against stealing or capturing
: Avs from one gallery and posting in another! And
: with Chilly's Av maker....isn't this the same thing?
: Stealing from one in use, and posting on a site?
: Nah! I don't like it. This isn't anything original
: about this, either. The avs will just go round and
: round, and there won't be any new ones to pick from.
: Because Chilly's Av maker sure won't 'acquire' an image
: from a magazine!!! :{
: Thanks for listening to me. :}
