Pic resizing
Hi all I tried to re size a pic for my avatar,thought I did it right but was told it was still to big and got deleted :-( can someone resize a pic for me? It's in my pic advice, Also I'm still unsure about posting pics in threads as they seem to come out real life size!! I'm not great with computers so any help would be great

The one I use for resizing is called Irfanview - a free download.

You open your pic with Irfanview and then click " Image " then "resize/resample" You can then make it any size you want and save it.

Your avatar should be 150 pixel wide; Pictures in threads maybe 640 wide.
