Resizing Pic for avatar
 

Hey guys I figured out how to resize the pic to get it 100x100 but can you change the size of the file to fit in the 4.9KB limit. I want to use a real picture but am having a hrad time finding one that is less than 4.9 KB. Thanks for the help!"thumbsup"

Can you post the pic, I can re-size it for you.

For home use, try saving it as a .gif, and using a limited number of colors (it is just an avatar, you don't need a lot of color).

Here ya go. Thanks Bender!"thumbsup"

Try this one, it should work now. "thumbsup"

How you do dat??;-)

Yeah how did you do that?

I just scale back the quality of the pic a little until it fits the required size. That pic was pretty close as it was, just needed a little tweaking.

Thanks Bender, I wish I knew what you just said but I would mess it up. :lol:

I think it's all in the editing software you use. I use Macromedia Fireworks 8. I can re-size pics then export them and set the quality to what I want before saving the re-sized pic.

The only reason I know how to do it is jason and badger showed me. :lol:

Started to say, your dumber than a hoe handle when it comes to computers :lol:

I don't know if you have met him? I have, a couple times now, and he is a nerd down to the bone. :lol:

Pft...................I'm a computer juggernaut now. :lol:
