Avatars
I'm trying to upload one of avatars, but all of them are too high in size.. I have them on my photobucket acount, is there a place where we can just put our http code in?
No, you can't. Try sizing them down... If you have adobe photoshop, try using the option called save for web.
If not, you gotta go by the rules. Sry

And if ya need help feel free to ask me, done some resisin in hte past
You can also get a simple image resizer for windows xp from the microsoft website...it's a windows powertoy. It enables you to resize any image by just right clicking on the file. I believe one of the resize options enables you to enter a custom size. It generally does a great job and sizes your files really low. It's quite useful when you have a lot of photos and just need to quickly get them to web-acceptable size to upload or email.
Did I mention it's free?

You don't say! You know, I've been having a problem very similar to what Kimi232 has been dealing with. I'm curious, though, is there a specific power toy I have to look for, or do all of the powertoys generally have the same resizing capabilities?

Just do this:
Open your photoshop and open your avatar file 100x100px.
Than go to Image-->Mode-->Indexed color...
Than save your avatar as .PNG
Your image is ready to upload :)
There. :)

Nah... you don't have to throw it to indexed colour... it makes the picture look very pixelated... i prefer using the save for web function... =P

You can change the format of your avatars
bmp to jpg or gif
if this does not work
you can try to resize your avatars
just get them smaller
this could be working

Thanks everyone -points to my avatar- I used the save for web option.. :)
What makes it make it lower than usual?

There's a specific one. Go here (Microsoft Powertoys for Windows XP) and there's a list of little windows tweaks on the right hand side. Find the one that says Image Resizer. There's a few other powertoys people might find useful for tweaking windows as well.fanficnerdYou don't say! You know, I've been having a problem very similar to what Kimi232 has been dealing with.

Ho...? So sure of yourself are we? It does! It makes all of the pictures look dull and makes it look crappy... i tried doing it with a picture of a lens before lol... totally pixelated! >=3
I'm not really sure what it does but i think it reduces the amount of colours used... something like... hmmm using only a set amount of colours, particularly the most commonly occuring ones, and anything else is coloured in to its nearest neighbour... but its just a guess... =P
