Morning chaps, I am trying to reduce the size of this picture

So as I can use it as my new avatar, however when I reduce the picture size, using the usual software I use & have used for dozens of other pics used on here, & upload it to the site it comes up with an empty locost builders photos screen & doesn't upload the pic - yet it has uploaded the (much larger) original you see here without a problem???
Any ideas - if anyone feels like playing with the pic size it's the last one in my main archive

dosen't work for me either at the moment

have you tried using photobucket or similar ?

i've had that before, the site seems to think its already on here. save it again with a completely different name in the new size and it 'should' be alright

because its so wide, 150 pixels wide makes it very short

just for re-sizing in general
go to microsoft power toys.
Image resizer.
Great for quickly resizing multiple images
prior to emailing.

I know how use nothing but MS PAINT!!!

Im a wizz with it though!!

You can resize in that under edit => stretch skew then do less than 100%

the file name issue could be the problem but doubt it. There must be loads of pics called 1 or engine or avatar!!
