    I tried...as you can see art is not my strong point lol. MS Paint ftw. The blink getting constricted turned out pretty cool though

    That's actually the best one yet, but here's a hint: saving as jpeg with Paint degrades the quality of the image... try switching to bitmap (.bmp) in the save window. The file size is a lot bigger but the quality remains perfect.

    Thanks for the tip but is there a way to open the original file because when I open the jpeg in paint it is the quality I saved it as. And if/when I do that should I save in 16 color bitmap, 256 color bitmap, or monochrome bitmap.

    I'm afraid it's too late now, it's saved at the quality you've got, but remember it for next time. 24-bit bitmap is the standard one, do you have that option? It should be right underneath 256 color.

    Actually, I could have a go at cleaning that picture up for you. I'll post it in a while.

    Oh yes I do its right below the 256, I must have just missed it. I'll remember that. Thanks!

    Cleaned up the worst parts, any more would take a long time:

    I actually had to change it to .png because Photobucket turns all .bmp into .jpg for some stupid reason.

    yeah, I always save as PNG because I use photobucket so much. It's become a habit XD
