Guest Anonymous Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 ^^Ahhh, but you see, us old Vikings just work with the tools at our disposal. Which sometimes, like on this occasion, come up short. (But our horns are never short) That's when it's easier to ask for help from those who know, like Pooks or Fifi, than play with our Goolies/Googlies/or whatever.

bradgate5 Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 How do I get my avatar pic down to 10 kb to satisfay the upload limit?I tried reducing the jpeg quality and the pixel x pixel size of the image but no way would it drop below 20kb.By then of course it was the size of one of these emoticons and has reduced to a pixel less fuss!

Hobbiniho Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 i really dont see what the problem is there are hundreds of free sites where you can choose an avatar that is already cut down to size you can even get animated ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellsbells Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I am a total idiot when it comes to being compuerate, but I am trying my best. I have been trying for the last few days to put a new avatar on my profile and it's more complicated than I can handle. All sites to search/help/advice will be greatfully appreciated.

Fjool Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Hiya About half-way down this thread, Twerto has given some helpful instructions for doing exactly this. There are some other tips in amongst too. HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellsbells Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Thanks I'll try over the weekend to resolve my probs. But if I don't I know who to call on. Beware Shetlinkers I am a total idiot when it comes to technical things. This is technical to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifi Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Don't worry. Just post the pic and someone will avaratize it for you. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrunchieSquirrel Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 My tip is to find something that 96 x 96 pixels (or less) and it has to be under 10KB. Find a picture (I mean avatar) and cope with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassermaet Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 If you get a photobucket account, this has a tool for resizing photos. I for one have found it very handy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
