Every Palace user
wants great avatars and props. Some want to draw them, some want to
scan them, some want to steal them. Here we'll try to help you to know
how to do all three. We'll also throw in some extra info to help palace operators and designers create
great room pics.

Because it's simply the best all-around imaging program,
most of these pages talk about using
Adobe Photoshop for
Windows or Mac. The current version is 7.0, and these
pages have been used all the way back through version
2.5. But we also know that not everyone's willing to pop
eight or nine hundred dollars for an imaging tool (though
if you're serious about imaging, it's worth every penny),
so there's also plenty of info for people who are fond of
less expensive program, like the shareware gems below
 and lots of tricks and general
information that are useful no matter what kind of
programs you use, even if it's only the prop editor
built-into the Palace client. |

| Paintshop Pro for Windows and Win95
is a big favorite I've used the now-ancient version 4.10
running under Win95 in these pages, but PSP continues to
update to even the newest Wintel versions like W2K and XP. |
