Avatars
 
HI ALL

Just downloaded some new avatars, trouble is some of the best are 100x100 to big for this forum, is there a way of shrinking them to 65x65 :confused:

cheers steve

MS office picture manager? Just resize in the "edit picture" bit to the right size. Not sure what it will do with animated gifs though, my avatars not that fancy!

Print them out, measure them up with a ruler and pencil, cut them to the right size and stuff them into your floppy drive

I think what you need for the animated ones is this...youll have to enable popups for it to work.

Dont know, it worked fine for me. the resize function comes as a pop up box, so if you are supressing pop ups then that may explain?

I make all my own avatars and I've found one of the best programs for creating and resizing avatars is a program call Ulead Gif Animator 5, this will easily resize all you avatars including animated ones. Hope this helps. :D :D :D

I'm using Ulead Photo Express to edit my pictures and resize them to the appropiate measures.
