craigr Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I have wanted to Ukraine my avatar as many on the unRAID forum have done, but I do not know how? Now that we are nearing the one-year mark of the latest conflict with Russia, I would like to participate. Not sure if this, or any of the unRaid forums are the "correct" place to ask, but this seemed the most appropriate place. Thanks, craigr Quote Link to comment

craigr Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 Oh wow, I'm not too fluent in photoshop 🤔. I've never really learned how to work with transparencies or with images that are circular. I found a tool to do it for me with google, but I can't get the sizing right. I'll try. I'm sitting at my computer for the first time after surgery and I need a mindless challenge. I'll see how long I am able to hold my head up 🤮 Thanks Hoopser! Quote Link to comment

craigr Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 Heck yeah! I'll use it right now! Not to sound ungrateful, but any idea why it didn't fill the bottom yellow? I think when I sized the image for the forum I had to add a black bar down there. Is that what got it? Quote Link to comment
craigr Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 AH! It worked perfectly when I used the forum avatar tool to resize it. Thanks again Quote Link to comment

My attempt was quick and dirty as an example. Probably would have been better if I took my time and cleaned it up bit. 1 Quote Link to comment
craigr Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 Now that you have provided the materials, I think I can probably figure out how it works to make adjustments. I just realized; I never have reinstalled photoshop on my computer after the latest install (couple years ago), but it's around here somewhere. I'll adjust the flag if I can so that the blue crosses just under "engineering." Heck, I bet my wife might even know how to do that. I can write code and repair circuit boards and calibrate video projectors, but draw a picture 🤣 Quote Link to comment
