I see a lot of people with them here. Is there like a generator somewhere, or do you do it yourselves? I was looking to make one that has either Im or iM (in keeping with the Apple theme here wink.gif), with a green background and white text, or maybe some blue...

I made it in Photoshop, from scratch. Seemed easier than looking for one, or a tutorial to one.

Took me, 15 maybe 20 minutes, including cleaning up the kanji I used in the center. (Granted, I changed the effects just a bit, but I felt a bit of differentiation would be nice, too.)
