I used MS Paint for mine.
Details that look odd when large will be not be seen in a small avatar.

OK, I guess I figured it out, although it took a LONG time to get the eyes in the right place (I can sympethize with your frustration, Caven!). As it is, I guess it turned out to be a rendition of me when I've had too much coffee - the caffeinated, staring bug eyes will just have to do.
Norbert - I like the big grin on a few of those. Strikes me as somewhat "South Park". The semi-evicerated grey matter is a nice touch too *wink*.
I'm on an older Mac, and don't have MS toys. But I got it to work.

LOL! Very nice Jane!
For me the nose and mouth were the toughest part. Actually my nose isn't quite as big as it shows in my avatar. LOL!

Yeah, noses are tough!
At one point, I tried just two little dots, representing nostrils, with a tiny line above representing the nose tip. I've seen some animation where that effect works quite nicely. WELL, I nearly fell off my chair laughing at the Miss Piggy verison of myself! I was kind of tempted to post it, too, with a little text bubble of "oink?" in the corner!
At one point, both the face and body were the skin-tone "fill" I'd used, and I realized it looked like I was standing there in that odd red landscape stark naked. Hmmmm, just add a hint of a curve, areolas implied below the bottom image border (to avoid the R rating...) and..... TSK TSK TSK! Gotta keep it family friendly, LOL!

I like all the outfits Francoz gives himself. A man of every season!

Is the APC avatar totally a fantasy? Is the red rock on the background the huge one in Austraila?

Thank you Mike. What are you doing in front of Ayers Rock, then?

Great explanation Mike  .
I was searching for some decorative rocks in the backyard and somehow I found myself over there.
What do others do there?
