Description
A tutorial detailing how to turn a photograph into a deviantART avatar. Whilst it has been written with Photoshop in mind, I have tried to keep it general so as to be useful for any imaging program.Resources:

Since like november or so, you don't actually need to make your avatar 50x50 anymore. You can crop it upon setting it on dA too.

Oh I know, but I feel that by using an imaging software to create your dA avatar, you can end up with a better quality image. Hence I've mentioned resizing it to 50x50 pixels. Not to mention, this tutorial is aimed at what makes a good dA avatar, less than how to make one (though that is included). But thank you for reminding me of that feature, perhaps I should include it x)
