getting the avatar down to 150 pixels?
Hi,
Does anyone know roughly what steps you take to reduce a .jpg to the 150 pixels wide size limit?
I'm using Corel PhotoPaint or Corel Draw, whichever is easier, but can't find any info on reducing the image size.
I presume we are talking about reducing the image, not cropping it dowm?
Thanks,
Ian

I thought it was 100x100 pixels ? anyway...
I use this site http://www.eclipsed.com/
if you find a gif you like you can use a tool on the site to reduce it for you. :thumb

The FAQ said keep it to a width of 150 pixels I think.
I've got a jpg photo I wanted to use, which currently fills the screen in PhotoPaint, so I was wondering how I scale that down?

We made it to Adelaide in one piece - I'm actually intrigued as to how to reduce pics, so thanks for the offer to do it for me Fatboy but
I'd be interested to know how its done?
In all of the picture editing software I've used I've never seen a menu option that involves changing the pixel size of an image. What is
this type of menu option normally called, is it a cropping tool or something where you can select the size in pixels to crop to?
