I'm not going to use this as my avatar, but thought I'd show you all how my nostril-flaring idea came out.

Image Now, if I could only get my eyebrows moving. :hehe

Couldn't resist, Wallace. Now you need to move one eyebrow up and wiggle your ears.

:rofl I did think of ear wiggling, but there isn't much to work with in the image, I'd have to create ears that I could then give a wiggle to. :mrgreen:
I also thought of blinking a word in morse-code. Then asking you guys what word you thought I was blinking. :hehe

I think I've had my fun for today though.

Come to think of it, I could use a trim. Care to oblige? :hehe
I'm actually pretty adept at nostril flaring, if I my say so. Instead of 'raising an eyebrow' to something, why not just flair a nostril.

Perhaps a tutorial to teach others this special skill is appropriate....not how to flare your nostrils for real, but digitally speaking...lol

I'll put something together, showing how I did the nostril flair, it wasn't that hard to do. Maybe I'll do a video on it.

Nice avatar and video tutorial Wallace. Maybe just a little head movement could be the final touch. :hehe

Such fun!


I did think of 'head movement' before it was suggested by GnuTux. I'm really not sure how it'll go. I guess the best thing to do would be to just do it and see.
