The Official Custom Buddy Icon request thread

This may be beyond the allowed topics, but can anybody make me a buddy icon I can use on AIM? I want the heartless crest from Kingdom Hearts on a black background and am too computer illiterate to make it myself. Thanks to anyone who takes a crack at it.

Like so, only on black instead of white

I can try, does anyone happen to know the dimensions of a buddy icon?

This is:

Though I'm not sure if AIM has any filetype requirements. I do know the size limit (dimensional) is 50x50 pixels. This is a png; if it doesn't work I'll convert it to jpeg. If that doesn't work, gif. If that doesn't work, bmp.

That's pretty cool FP, thanks. It won't take png, and I tried saving it as a bmp but it says it's too big (the limit being 7861 pixels)

Edit: Done and done! Thanks Zola and FP!

I've got this one.

For future reference, buddy icons are 48 X 48 I believe.

Bonaparte, would you please change the name of this thread to "The Official Custom Buddy Icon Request Thread" ?

I sat down tonight intending to make a few AIM icons.

Thing was, I started capping The Greatest Villain, and there are so many great shots that I went a little nuts! Some worked, some didn't quite work, but it was fun

Feel free to download! They are all 48 X 48

These are all good. I love them all. Good work, Zola. I will have fun using these.

Kudos!

I think it is 60x60

No, as Zola already stated, the correct size for AIM icons is 48 X 48.

yes 48 x 48 is usually better

Glad you enjoyed them.

If anybody has requests, put them here. I have a program especially for editing icons.

you can use 60x60 but the program crapily reduces teh size itself and makes it look bad
