How are you guys able to take a frame from a Flash cartoon (i.e. Homestar Runner; One Piece of Crap) and turn it into an avatar? I would like to try that practice myself, but I don't know what to do.

If you're talking any flash cartoon from the computer...Hit Prt Scr [Print Screen] and it will past whatever your computer was doing that second and you can paste it and resize it in paint or whatever.
