i need help.....again
 

i need help getting my avatar on this website! when i go to edit avatar and click browse and i get the picture that i want it says that i need to resize it well i have tried everything!!!!! how am i suspose to do this? :confused:

There are several options to do so. It depends on which kind of photo editing program you have, the one that opens when you try to view pictures (i.e. ACDSee). This program should have a function called resize (or something similar). There you should be able to bring your Avatar to the size required here).
If you do not have such a program you can download one for free here:

how do i know which one to download?

Since you're not that computer sawy, I'd reckon you choosing the FuturixImager with 1.55MB. But in the end it will be your choice. Read through all that are shown with 6/6 rating. Look also at the size and what they offer. And then use just common sense, deciding for what your needs are.
I hope that helps......

ok i have just downloaded the file now what???

Learning by doing honey.......
There must be a "open file" function (I haven't downloaded the program yet, since I use ACDSee) somewhere. Find it and then try to locate your picture. Open it. Now you need to look for something like " Resize " or "Change" (a look into the help files might do wonders....;) ).
With this function you change the size to the required size here (I think it's 100x100 bixel, or somethin' link that).
After changing the size, look for "save as..." Save it as .gif onto your desktop.
Then you go back here and try to upload it. If it works, then you're fine, if not, then you have to rezise it again till it fits the rules......

Okay, I've downloaded and installed it with no problems whatsoever.
Is it possible that an Anti virus program prevents you from opening it??
If you get it open, go to "File>Open..."
Browse your computer to locate the file and open it.
Then go to "Edit>Edit Image...."
On the right side you will see the word "Resize" which will offer you options for pixle and percentages.
When you are finish, go back to File>Save as...
Give it a name and choose "Compu Serve GIF (*gif)"
And that's it.........

If all your looking for is an easy way to resize your avatar and don't want to do anything else, then this site will do it for you: http://resizepic.com/.

After you resize it, just download it to your hdd, then you can add it to the forum using the User CP.
