I see the're suppsed to be 50 KB or less, I fiddled around so one said 46 KB & still wouldnt work. I'd like to participate more but have a difficult time w/ pictures. What are jpeg, KB, MB & all the other things one sees?? I'd like to post my 60 Dart w/ D-500 shot but to no avail. 59CRL Posted 2009-11-17 9:36 PM (#197194 - in reply to #191237) Subject: RE: shrinking avatar Expert Posts: 2679 On a windows computer you can open your picture in windows paint, then use stretch/skew to resize the pic. Also a free program called Irfanview goto ..... www.Irfanview.com This is a very powerful free program. You want to save your pic as a Jpeg, when you resize the pic you can choose the size, like 50X50 pixels.... Good luck.
