Got a shot on my PC I'd like to use, not sure how to post it.
Any help?

Thanx

I use photobucket..it's free and easy. It will make it the right size under the edit feature.

In your profile, you'll find a place that says this:

Link to off-site Avatar:
Enter the URL of the location containing the Avatar image you wish to link to.


Enter the url for the avatar there. You do not need to use the [img] tags for the avatar.

One note - please resize your avatar pic before you put it up. The forum software will not resize it for you.

Right click - properties will tell you the size of the pic. For an avatar, no more then 160 pixels wide.

Not sure why this worked? I picked a photo in my pictures in my computer resized it with "Fast Stone Photo Resizer" (free From faststone.org) and up loaded the resized photo from my pictures.
