So! The Hobbit is coming and as a dedicated Tolkien fan with a soft spot for Gandalf I have been trying to make myself a signature to fit my feel. I also want this to be pretty much permanent since I have been jumping around in the past in relation to signature and I'd really like to settle down, marry Gandalf and have lots of signature/avatar children... *ehem* Anyway! I have been trying with my limited knowledge of digital imaging and although the results have been... ok as you can see they are not ideal by any means. So! After much deliberation I suddenly realised that I was going about this all wrong. Why was I not simply asking the experts? Such a kretin I am

But anyway what I truly deeply want in the bottom of my heart is an animated gif image of gandalf smoking his pipe but I am not holding out for such wizardry (pun intended)

I simply wish for that kind of heartening image of gandalf, perhaps with one of his inspiring quotes and displayed in a generally appealing manner with an avatar to match. I want something that feels lovingly made since I will be most lovingly displaying it ^^

This is the avatar I have had since I joined and I'm loathed to be rid of it completely since it really reflects my personality well and has a large amount of sentimental value attached ^^'



Not entirely sure how to include it, I tried as you can see with my avatar but again, it doesn't really work *sigh*

I must say one more thing, I'm very sorry if this has a ridiculously low amount of information, I've never made a request before so please ask any and all questions you have and treat me as the noob I must probably am.

Much thanks and admiration
