Here is how you make a Pokerstars avatar.
The first time you sign up for your PokerStars account, you will be given the option to select an image to be displayed to other players at the poker table.
1. Click Select Image.
2. Find a suitable picture from a directory on your hard drive.
3. Click on that file, and press Open.
4. Please wait while the selected image is loaded into memory locally to display.
5. Now you need to drag the selection box over the area of the image you wish to display. The smaller window at right shows you what image will appear at the table.
6. Once you are satisfied with the image in the smaller window, press OK.
7. Continue with the rest of your registration. Once your image has been screened for suitability, it will show up along with your User ID (nickname) at the tables. If you are unsatisfied with the image you selected during registration and wish to change it (or if you did not select an image during registration), you can do so by clicking Select/Change Image from the Account menu. Select Change Image, and follow the steps outlined above. Click Save when you are finished.
NOTE: You may also create your own Photoshop or Illustrator images to use as well. Just create them with the image sized to 100 x 100 and save them as .JPEG or .GIF files.
I didn’t make an image when I made my account how do I make one now?
Thanks for stopping by Logan. You can create an image easily. You can download any image on the internet that is a .GIF or .JPG, .JPEG format file. If not you can create your own in Photoshop or MS Paint and save it to that format. In order to download an image from the web simply find the image you would like and then right-click and choose “Save Image As” this will allow you to save it in onto your computer. Remember the location where the image is saved and then choose “Change Image” in the PokerStars software. You may then select the image and crop it accordingly so that it lines up properly in the frame. That’s it! Usually it takes a few days for PStars to approve the image. Good luck and don’t be a stranger!
