I felt like it was time, once again, to change my avatar. This is due in part to the fact that the New Year is over with, and the Fireworks one is just not working for me know (if you know what I mean).

This is actually one that took some time to make for I did three different things then any of my previous Emoticon Avatars.

1) I did an outline gradiation. Instead of having a solid color for the outline, it also changes color slightly depending upon the light. It follows the rest of the gradiation feel.

2) The color transition is the first time I attempted something like that. I am not that good at it yet, but I want to practice more with it. I feel like I did alright for a first time though.

3) Intead of using a transparent background, the background is a gray color, for it allows me to add more to the animation, in length and what I can do. It does not take up more space to have the transparent deal.
