TIPS: Create pixelated avatars at eightbit.me

This post was supposed to be up like a week ago, but it is only up today as I have uni work and assignments to finish last week. Enjoy! :D

After a few months, eightbit.me is finally opened to everyone! WooHoo! It means rather than using Photoshop, all of us can use it to create our own pixelated avatar more easily!! You don't need to have computer skills to do it. Just a Twitter account and clicking will do!

Design: Flame Painter

Do you want to design your own wallpaper?

Head over to Flame Painter to try it out. It's really addicting trying out all the patterns that you can do with you mouse. Different gestures will exhibit really different flame paintings and colour shades. I can't explain it here, as you have to try it out yourself. The online painter is FREE.

(You may need to use Internet Explorer or Firefox (with Java) for this to work as it won't work on my Google Chrome.)
