Description
A lot of people were asking me how I did my pixel avvies... So yeah... this is how I do them... ._.Mister Poop is going to help you out XD
My tutorial is crap >.< I know it's really confusing, so you'll be pretty lucky if you can interpret it >.<
Used 's icon as an example. I hope you don't mind ._.
EDIT: If you make an icon with this tutorial, TELL ME!!! I would really like to see it! X3
EDIT x2: Wow, thank you so much for all the faves and the cute avvies you've been making ;_; I'm sorry, but I won't be able to fave all of them anymore o_< The numbers have been overwhelming, and honestly I never really thought that it would really get all these views O_O However, please don't stop showing them to me! I really love looking at all of them ;A;

an easier way to do the lineart is just to use the pen tool, but set the pencil so its 1x1 :3

Thanks alot for this life saving tutorial.
(you might want to add about the saving in the end, that in some PS versions it's called "save for web and devices...".
Without another deviant from this comment section I would not have been able to save it.) ^^

good tutorial
question when you start to do the animation you seemed to have five copies of the picture in the layers are we supposed to copy the picture five times or so and then edit the eyes?

do you use photoshop? If its CS3 or CS4 or something, you can do save for web and devises instead
