I was watching the end of the film Mars Attacks the other night, and I saw a clip that I thought would make one of the world's greatest moving Avatars. Unfortunately, I haven't got a clue how to go about trying to set it up. What would I have to do?

There is probably software out there that will do it for you. But I think the classic way, is to get the clip and copy n paste each frame into an animation software and export as GIF.

I think I'll leave it then. The clip in question featured Tom Jones dancing with an eagle on his arm, surrounded by deer. Does anyone know what I'm on about?

Were you high?

Looks somewhat useful, nice one.

Here's my piss-poor attempt:

Gifsoup is really good for any video on YouTube.

I know Kipper's avatar is a Spitfire )or maybe a Hurricane) but out of the corner of my eye it looks like an archer. Am I strange?

'Point of information Sonny, shaadup, you might learn sumfing, moving (annoying) avatars can be killed by hitting ESC.'

An archer? How d'you mean?

Just realised I've been tactfully averting my gaze from Ruby's avatar because I thought it was a clutch of penises.

I like the idea of a 'clutch' being the collective noun for penii.

Or a 'bukakke', depending on what said penii are doing.

This great stuff gettin' more bizarre you lot lovin' it!
