    I like your new avy, lol
    And I don't give out PSD's first because I fee like I worked and gave it away.
    Second, because how are you going to learn if you don't make yourself what
    you want and want the easy stuff. I mean, the point of this is to learn not
    to just take my things and bam, make yourself something.
    And I'm going to open a "Giftshop" soon.
    I'm going to have avatar templates, sliders anything shiny and colorful.
    And you can take as many as you like...is that a good idea?



    Nope, Sorry. But it's better that you know how to make it now.
    And don't have to rely on me.

    ooo a gift shop sounds interesting. i might be able to help. i need to get better at photoshopping.
    p.s. how do you make all of those little background images in the avatars that i see other people have. like little squigly lines and stuff

    I'm glad now that my requests thread is close, now I don't have to deal with some spammers...But the gift shop will be just some "resources" so everyone could use..

    Hehe. But some in the iPhone Fanatics might like it, since they
    can use signatures, they might like their name or whatever, but I mean..
    it's just a tutorial...any more ideas of what you would like to learn?

    The leaf one was included in Photoshop when you go to select the rounded rectangle thing..just choose that form thing, I forgot the name and then above in the bar, just look for it. It should be there.
