Seven CEW and C/M Icons I Made

[stanford9]

I made four CEW and three C/M icons, which you can use for livejournal, AOL, this board, etc etc.. .they're already set at 100x100 pixels, so you don't need to change them.

You can get them here: www.livejournal.com/users/trek_grrl/31950.html

I got the original screencaps from CG's fine gallery on the main website, thanks CG!!

If you don't know how to use them, in Windows, do a right-click on the image. Go to "Properties" and it'll show the URL/web address. Highlight it with your mouse, and right-click again and choose "Copy." Go where you want to post the URL (eg, this board, or your livejournal) and put your cursor in the field. Right-click again and choose "Paste."

Or, you can save it doing right-click and "Save As" and tell it where to save on your drive. You can then upload the file to whichever place you're posting it to.

Sorry if I tell you the painfully obvious; everyone's at different levels of knowledge when it comes to computers, after all!

That's great work there stanford9.

I've saved them on to my computer and I particularly like the Sumo Chuck. It's hilarious. ;D

I think the sumo wig is one of the very funniest scenes in the whole series.

The other two, I'm torn between: Klinger dressed as the Statue of LIberty at the camp boundary, when MacArthur goes by, and the General stands and salutes or....

Klinger dressed as Cleopatra, and he wails to Potter's friend, I want my mummy!

Just picturing those three scenes cracks me up all over again!

(Okay, add one more: Charles pulling the rubber chicken from the fine little teapot and screaming "Get me the HELL out of here!" I thought I'd die laughing when I saw that, the way he pauses his tape recording to check why there was no tea coming forth.)

Any way, I digress... that's why I chose that one for my avatar: it makes me laugh every single time I see it, that expression on his face, but remembering when they go PLOP! and drop it on his head, lol!!!

You did a wonderful job on the Charles Icons Stanford!

What lovely icons. I'd love to make some one day but my computer is too old to support the software and I wouldn't know how to make them either.

[stanford9]

When you say "Old" how old do you mean? My machine was bought in April 2001, it's Win98SE with 128Mb RAM, 1Ghz speed or something.

The only software I use that wasn't standard is the screen capture s/w, from zdnet.com (it's free and called Ace WINscreen). I use Windows Media Player to play the video (a .avi file, not a dvd) and Paint to shrink the captured picture down to 100x100. Quite easy and archaic, really.

Now, the screencaps I was doing off sister's DVD player on her laptop, THAT was hard!
