Need to resize a pic for avatar use?

[Jon Cole]

To resize a pic for use as an avatar....

First, save it from your photo host.... to your hard drive.

Then, open this: http://www.picresize.com/

Save that link to your Favorite Places so you can find it again next time.

From Pic Resize dot com, you just follow the basic instructions.

I am a professional computer illiterate, so I know about these things...

It should work. For you. I hope.

OH YES! One more helpful tip! When you resize you pic, be sure to RE-NAME it when you save it. Something you will remember later. Don't ask me how I know.

One more tip: the avatar size is 200x200. For all of you mathematically challenged folks, that means square. Don't use a picture that's, say 200x150. Use a square image.
