Finally!
I had to load mine in from Photobucket.
At least in here, I can change it from time to time....
However, over in Idg.....looks like Im stuck with that avatar forever, because my new camera wont downsize to 100 x 100....
And my old camera, wont run on my new computer.

Hi, Blane.
My current avatar is 100 x 74, downsized from 118 x 95 in my Picasa account. In Modify Profile, I adjusted the size by plugging in my smaller numbers in the avatar width and height.

So, is this thing always gona be this big? I hit reload on the page and it resized. did anyone mention above setting the pixel sizes when setting a new av? Yeah. The instructions for avatars say 100 x 100 pixels max, so I reduced my settings proportionally. Hope this helps.  |

I use IRFANVIEW photo editing program. I can reduce a pic to fit on a thumbtack if I need to. www.irfanview.com |
