Avatar problem

[chrishandscombe]

i cant seem to make my avatar picture small enough in file size to upload it.
im using microsoft paint that comes with any windows, i can make the pixels less then 120 in height and width but when it comes to saving it, the options to save the picture change the file size.


What picture file type are people using and what pixel size?

i want to add a picture to my signature - how? :?

To add a picture to you signature you use the same codes in the signature that you would for posting a picture.

It's a combination of 2 pictures merged together in Photoshop.

cool, does that have to have a pixel limit to it?

Both the size and pixel limit are pretty generous compared to other forums and usually the pixel limit is not a problem for the size avatar allowed.

Now...get to work on your signature....
