Icon help

Calling anyone who is good at icon making. I need some assistance.

On Sunday, while on the boat in the evening, I got chilly, and my sister's SIL kindly loaned me a sweatshirt to wear. On the sweatshirt was a picture of this Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Being the LJ addict I am, I immediately thought, "This would make a great icon!" So I found the picture, as you see, but when I try to make it small enough to fit the LJ icon regulations, you can't read the smaller words, which ruins the whole (admittedly weak) joke.

So, is it possible to make this picture into a readable icon?

Thanks.

I don't get it, but I'll make it into an icon for you tonight after work. :-)

Yay!

See, in NJ you are not allowed to pump your own gas, an attendent does it for you.

For real? In my hometown in NH, the gas station has two pumps stuck in the middle of a dirt lot next to the general store -- which up until two years ago was officially called The Store. No quick-swiping card thingies, can't pay with your credit card. Gotta actually walk into the store and pay cash. Crazy, huh?

Are you really not allowed to pump your own gas? I thought it was just because Jersey girls were high-maintenance. ;) Here in Canada, the self-serve petrol flows wild and free! Although I don't think I should have to pump my own gas. I seriously don't feel qualified. For one thing, I can never figure out which side the gas tank is on; additionally, have you ever seen a woman in a Victorian dress pumping gas? In the words of Rita Rudner, I look like the gas fairy.

Well, yeah. That too. But no, in New Jersey people aren't allowed to pump their own gas. So you will often see men get out of their cars and stand there, because they are manly and want to look like the attendant can't do it unless he supervises.
