I feel kinda silly posting this, but it's important. >_>;

For my webmastering class, I've designed a website for my teacher. However, she has directly told me if it does not have a frog image somewhere on the site, she will deduct points from my final grade. She will bitch at me if I just use some image from Google, without the written consent of the owner of said image.

So, do you see where I'm going with this? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

I need an image of a tree frog. If you're not sure what a tree frog looks like, check out Google image search. I want the image to be somewhat small in terms of pixel size, something like 200x200 pixels, or around that.

The actual frog I'd like to be simple, and somewhat stylized, and cute. Not like, cartoony cute, but I don't want some ugly old toad. Colors, whatever you see fit, but I think my teacher wants the standard bright green frog with red eyes.

The only other specifications I request is that the image is a GIF with transparency in the field outside the actual frog.

And since the project is due tommorow, I'd like the frog sometime...soon. I'd love to have it before I go to bed, but any time before about 12:20 PM tommorow is acceptable.

Thanks much in advance.

Bright green tree frogs with red eyes are not standard, they are Red Eyed Tree Frogs, very specific. Very beautiful frogs. I used to have a male and named it Lucy (I named it before I realized it was a male). The ones you see in pictures are usually males, they are thin, very agile looking tree frogs. The females are much larger in terms of fat. That's the norm in the animal world though, so let's not be blaming Adam for being against size acceptance, mmkay?

Right. So you're looking for a drawing, rendering, picture of a Red Eyed Tree Frog. They are popular among the herp enthusiasts, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding a picture of one at all, or even a rendering, or a drawing.


This is the type of frog you're looking for:

And here is a rendering of the frog. The colors of the rendering don't do the colors of the real frog justice. These are truly beautiful animals, but also very delicate, and difficult to breed.

Of course I didn't have trouble finding pictures of a frog. The problem I have is gettin permission to use said images. Unless you rendered that frog image, and are willing to let me use it, it doesn't really do me any good...thanks, though.

Also, MorgueFile is really useful. Thanks for that. Maybe one of the images on there will appease my teacher.
