I would like to use my old avatar, but can't get it sized correctly. Please forgive my lack of computer-savvy, but if someone could help me, I would be quite grateful.

You can send the avatar as an attachment to my address at the photo album and I'll resize it for you, then send it back.

For image resizing, I generally use a freeware program called IrfanView. It does a great job in resizing pictures. Will also convert from one format to another.
The other great part about that program, is it will let you save a gif with an transparent color.I've lost my mind ages ago. If you find it, please hide it.

When Raps dug up my old avatar address and I tried to upload it, I got "Invalid URL". I guess I'm out of luck.I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

While I see the original problem is diverted I'll add this:
Most people have a program called Paint.
Open the image in Paint, go to Image>stretch/skew. This opens a window that at the top says:
Stretch:
Horizontal- 100%
Vertical- 100%
You can change those numbers. To make the image smaller you might enter 80% and 80%- to make it larger you might put in 120% and 120%. It's important to change both numbers the same amount or your pic will look squished or stretched out of shape.
Once you've done this you can go to Image>Attributes and it will tell you the size of your pic (ie- 100x100).
If your image is the wrong size still go to Edit>Undo and then back to Image>Stretch/skew and try again.
Not undoing what you've done before messing with the image further occasionally causes that 'pixely' look."I don't want any part of your crazy cult! I'm already a member of the public library and that's good enough for me, thanks!"

I couldn't upload mine. Raps, do you still have one of a ringneck dove's head? That was mine."Crazy may always be open for business, but on the full moon, it has buy one get one free specials." - WishfulSpirit
