    I think this is the right forum for this...I have been trying to post an avater and it is not working. it keeps telling me that it is too big. I have even copied avaters from other sites and it still says its too big

    This is the image I want to use.

    Yeah, this is way to big:

    I think it needs to be 80x80 or 100x100 I would have to look to be sure but the above pic is way to big.

    Download this to your hard drive, then upload it as your avatar.

    You have to use an image editing program. Something like this...

    First, make the aspect ratio (proportions, in this case, square) correct by cropping as needed.

    Then resize as needed. The second pic is 100x100, and the third is 80x80.

    Steve's looks good too. I was trying for the largest pic possible based on the 100x100 or 80x80 info.
