Courtesy of forestdweller telling me where, I now have one of these silly userpics too. If anyone else who doesn't already know wants to share the trendiness, they're at this site. (I'm told that clicking "email" when you're done does nothing, so one needs to screen-capture it to turn it into a pic.)

how do you do a screen capture?

[andrewjthomas.livejournal.com]

- hit your print screen button
- open any graphics app (ms paint actually works well for this believe it or not)
- ctrl-v into the new image
- save and edit as needed

"Edit as needed" = 100x100 pixel max dimensions, 40k max size, must be gif jpg or png. So you'll need to be able to use something other than ms paint to achieve that, as it will only save bitmaps, but that's not too hard to come by (although I used photoshop, myself, and stuck in a different background and darkened the hair).
