eeeeeeeeee! The more pics I see of this film, the more excited I get about it XD

Oh love the new avi

Yeah  ;D

Be warned people the picture of Harry is very BIG!!!!!!!!!

hehe thanks, I've made a ton of them!


Life size, that's what I like  ;) ;D lol!

I wonder when Warner Bros. will release a picture of Mad-Eye Moody?  There was some info at the Leaky Cauldron that his face was done with prosthetics rather than by computer in post-production.  I hope the scene where he transfigures Draco into a ferret makes it into the movie!

Me too! ;D  That was a great scene in the book.

It'll also be interesting to see how they handle the scene where the echoes of Harry's parents and Cedric appear out of Voldemort's wand in the graveyard scene.

They might cut that :(

hey everyone has a cool avi but me i would like hagrid please

If you find one, send it to the resident avatar whiz Roz and I am sure she will be happy to resize it for you!

Its great to see people getting cool new animated avatars! :D

Tell me which scene you want animated, and I'll make you one too  ;)

It looks like we have another computer whiz on the forum! :D

lol! I've been making tons of icons recently...not sure why, boredom probably  :P If anyone else wants one, name the scene and I'll do it  :)

I do love the avis like cool wizard pics ;D

Luluhime made mine in a matter of minutes!  She's a wiz at this stuff.  All I could manage on my own were the still, boring kind!

I would love either one of hagrid or mcgonagall

anything you can do will  be fantastic by me
thank you

Here you go, a double whammy!

Unfortuneatly the size of the icon kills the scene, but atleast you can tell who it is  ;) :)

Luluhime you are amazing! :o

I wish I could be half as talented as you with the computer! ;D

haha awwww! This is what happens when most of your friends move away to go to uni...you're left with nothing else to do!  ::) ;D

A few more, feel free to use them (but please don't link from my photobucket  ;))

Nice job!

I think emmasoneandonly will claim bids on the Hermione icon!

I think so too! ;)

This is a bit late but those avatars are so clever ;D

Luluhime is it only Harry ones that can be done or anything on DVD?

Providing I have the DVD, it can be anything  ;) I can also do it with AVI, MPG, MPEG, ASF and WMV files  :) The only thing with DVDs is that I have to screen cap the frames manually so it takes abit longer, whereas I can use a program to extract the frames for me on the video files.

Oh dear I think the latin was easier  ???

Just being nosey for the time being (as you might have guessed).

At some point I will pm you for a master class in avatar making if you don't mind.  I can just see Pinky bobbing around at the side of the screen :D

By the way do you have the patience of a saint??? ;D

Lol!!!


Sure, I don't mind going through it  ;) ;D


Indeed, I have to! The sirus poster icon I did took just over 2 hours to make. I took the screen caps (32 of them) from the scene in hogsmead (you can probably see bits of snow falling infront of it) - where the camera passes by a hut with the poster on. The camera was moving along, but at the same time, getting closer to the poster meaning each frame had to be resized and positioned on top of the previous frame correctly. I still didn't get it 100% right which is why the background tends to wiggle abit (same with kbmums icon).  ::) :P ;D

I love doing it though...I must be mad  ;D

I think this might be one of those times when you need to retract a statement.  As far as I can see this is bloomin' perfect ;D

Oh you as so cleaver  ;D How do you actually use them :-\

 :o Wow! They are great! It took me ages to figure out how to do a still avatar.... ::) ;D

How do you use the icons?

Copy the text under the icon you want (click and drag your cursor over the url, then right click and select 'copy')
 Go into your profile and in the avatar section, tick the box where it says, 'I have my own pic'. Right click in that box and click paste.  ;D ;)

I thought you didn't want us to use your Photobucket ???

If you don't have your own photobucket/webspace to upload it to, then you may link from mine  :)

Oh right, I do but it gets so confusing for a total muggle like me ::)

Darn right ;)
 

I'm sure Mcgonagell will love it...

i do i do i dobut i can't get it to work  :'( :'(

What part won't work?

i can't find my photoshop passwords and i have no idea what it is so i don't have an addy to put in

I'm one of those weird people who look forward to Mondays.  Husband goes to work, kids go to preschool, and I get a quiet house to myself for a little while.  WAHAHAHAHAHA!

The more pictures I see the more excited I become about November and the movie coming out ;D

I am more excited about this movie then any other Harry Potter movie because as I stated before in another thread, it's my all time favorite Harry Potter book  :D

They are all looking so old.

I just wish it was out before HBP. I know how upsetting it was watching POA knowing Sirus fate :'(

Just read that ABC will air the first film clips, interviews and behinde-the-scenes footage durring the presentation of COS on ABC May 7th ;D OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CANT WAIT ;D ;D ;D
