Since there will always be a high demand for custom avatars in Megaman Star Force (and even more with SF3) I have posted most popular avatars. These are from various sources, most being myself and Sprites INC rips. All you have to do is click on the picture you want and download the .bin file. You can use Greiga Master's Avatar Generator Tool to convert the .bin file into an Action Replay cheat for the game of your choice.

What if you want to make your own? I'll try to cover a method that seems to work okay when it comes to this:

You will need two programs for this.
-Paint.Net (or any other image editor you think can do just as well)
-padie (a color reducer)

You can download padie here.

Using Paint.Net, open the image you want to use. For this example, the "Genin" virus will be used.
http://www.themmnetwork.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=random&cat=5&pos=-1823

When you have the image opened in Paint.Net, copy everything (Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C) and go to "New".
For size, set it to 40x48 pixels and click OK. Paste the picture and select "Keep canvas size" when the prompt asks you to.

Now use the selector tool (top right icon on the tools tab) to move around the image and place it where you want it. Click on the round corners while holding Shift to scale it down. There is a setting on the tab at the top. You can choose "pixelated" or "smooth", which ever one works for you. When you are satisfied with the way it looks, go to Save and choose a file name. Save it as a Bitmap (.bmp). Click OK when the next screen prompt comes up and exit Paint.Net when the file is saved.

Now run padie and open the Bitmap image with it. After loading the image into padie, go to "Edit" > "Color Reduce". Here you have options to choose from. In the indexed color tab, select "n palette(2-256) and in the box type in 15. This is the color count. The dither mode also changes the output quality. By default it is on "DiffuseFS". The quality comes out okay but for more complex images, it becomes more necessary to experiment with the settings.

When you are satisfied with the result, go "File" > "Save" and you are finished. Just run the image through GM's Avatar Generator Tool and use it where you wish.

This is a bit late considering SF3 doesn't have a custom avatar option. Good for people going backwards on playing though.

Of course you have custom avatars. I saw a picture of someone's profile that proved you can put custom images.

It means some people may still want custom images there and that's what I'll make possible.

That's the team avatar customization. We're stuck with default Noise images for our personal avatars.

Spoiler: click to toggle

Nevertheless, a face icon is still possible. You can just as easily use your group image there.

But since symbols might be a popular choice, are there any symbols in demand? I can make some.

Yes, sorry for my mistake. Please ignore all the comments I made before I 5 star'd SF3. It's kinda weird that they don't force you to change to change the team avy when you team with someone.

Here are a few more icons that can be used. They seem to fit the "logo" theme better.

Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed, is so you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
Or so you cant get inside when it snows Lol

I loved doing custom avatars but it always hurts your eyes pixeling in the image you want.
