Website help
« on: April 11, 2010, 09:02:12 PM »
Hey, as you may have noticed I do not have an "avatar." I have a picture that I want to use but I can't figure out what size the image is supposed to be. I've typed in what seems like 10,000 combos of different numbers for the size of the picture. If you know how what the pixel sizes of it or whatever it is please help me. I'm not that good with computer stuff as you can tell :P

you should be able to upload the image, and it should resize it automatically.


try doing that instead of entering the dimensions manually

It tells you that right on your profile page.

It won't resize it automatically. And no matter what I type in manually it will not accept it. Maybe there is just something wrong with the type of photo im using or something?

Try and upload it to photobucket and use the resize tool to shrink it down.

Finally it worked after tampering with the size of the image many times. The image was just way too big I guess. I used photo bucket to re-size it. Thanks again for the tip.
