Artist's Comments

<EDIT> Ugh. Apparently I'm completely retarded. Whenever I try to set this as my avatar, it says
The image you uploaded is greater than 15 KB (15,360 bytes). Does that mean it is too big? Or the file size is too big? And if it is the latter, is there any way you know of that can make it smaller file size? If anyone would answer that, I'd be really greatful. Thanks. ;D -Runs off to the special bus- </EDIT>


I was looking at my deviant info. the other day, and I realised that soon my one year deviantArt aniversary is coming up! :D

........Aaaaaand I haven't submited ANYTHING.
Well, I have a reason for this, of course; I'm a crappy artist. But I decided I wanted to contribute to the site, so I made this for an avatar.

It is the japanese kanji for water. It may not be completely acurate, I just did it from memory; I saw my teacher write it in japanese class.

Anyways, it took a while to make, (A LOT longer than it should have, I screwed up and had to change the pictures to GIF frame by frame. And then I changed them all frame by frame again because I decided I wanted a black background, instead of white. D: So indecisive.) and although it isn't so great, I like the way it looks. :D

If for any reason you want to use it, (Though I doubt anyone will.) please don't. However, if you would like to use the idea, go ahead. I would appreciate it much if you would tell me in the comments, though. ^^

I used a program called UnFreeze, and Microsoft Paint. xD I have no better system than that...

It took 41 frames.

Oh, and if anyone would like me to make them one, (For some strange reason) I will, but I won't make the same one twice. People runnin' around with the same avatar is not kewl. For example: I would make you one representing fire or earth or gold or whatever, but not water, seeing as I've already made it.

I had NO IDEA what to submit this under. D:

Gah, I had meant to say more stuff, but somehow it got left out...

Anywho, it looks really nice.

I'm glad you like it. ^^ It only took about an hour I guess, but it seems longer when working with MS Paint.

If you want, I can make you another Mizu one. I'd just change the background colors, or the other colors, so they were different, and you'd have to give me credit for it.

Nah, it's okay, I'm fairly happy with my avatar XD.

Besides, if you add another mark, you can get ice instantly!

WARNING! Random story below

When my Japanese teacher lived in japan, (He was born in america) he had to get a stamp made that had his last name on it. (I forgot what those are called...) And as his last name is Cory, his stamp said Kori, which is ice, of course. So he confused everyone whenever he would stamp a document, and usually had to show proof that that was actually his last name.

XD That's amusing, and pitiable.

I'm pretty sure that means that the file size is too big. The avatar is 50x50...
I think since you worked with ms paint and unfreeze it might have saved larger than it should have...

If you want you could send me the avatars layers and I could see if I could make the file size smaller
