About all you need to have a decent image editing program, such as Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, Gimp (Free), or many others. You can checkout download.com's image editors for a good sampling.

Hey is photobucket down? I can't access the page any longer and my avatar is gone.

JAG · June 15 2004, 06:16 PM

^They are upgrading, it should be back by now. You may need to reinput the URL for your avatar. I did

Galactus · June 15 2004, 10:01 PM

Thanks it is back and running now. Now I have to come up with a sprite to use for an avatar like Temis, Dorian, and Top41 have. so much work.

Photoshop is also great to resize your avatar, and fit it to the appropriate file size as well.

Microsoft Office Picture Manager, which is included in MS Office 2003 is one of the best simple editing programs I've seen. It can be set to automatically rotate and resize an image to avatar size, then save it within a file size you specify. Great stuff.

Is photobucket down again??? Is there another server that's good? It seems like photobucket has been going down or been "upgrading" quite a bit lately!

On Irfranview, is there a way to change a file size from 28kbs to around 6kb?

Based on my memory, the only way to do it is to mess with the quality of the sale before you save it. Although, you'll have to mess with it manually to get the file size down to where you want it. Thats based on memory, so it could be wrong.

How would you do that?

^You have to have 100 posts before it will appear. You can see it in your profile until then.

May I suggest adding this to the FAQ? It's taken me 3 hours and putting my avatar image at about 5 different sites to try and get it to appear in my posts when all along I should've just been waiting patiently to hit 100 posts.

Thanks,

DZ

^I assumed it was in the FAQ all ready. I just checked, and apparently it isn't.

When you choose to save the file, there is an options button in the dialog box. Click it and it will take you to a window that will allow you to adjust the quality of the image you are saving.
