    1~go to your pics
    2~open the desired pic
    3~left click on pic
    4~click resize pictures
    5~new box opens....push advance button
    6~click custom box....set size to 80 x 80
    7~go back to original pic gallery...your new 80 x 80 ready for Avatar pic is ready....just upload to HAMB

    Easy as Pie!

    Cool, I just took one of the pics I had of the front of my car, cropped, then resized using MS Paint (sucks). Nice avatar, I was wondering if your handle referred to that comic.

    I always thought he looked like Bob from the Church of the Subgenius. You might have a career in the Ministry!

  14. Hey Redmeat---Thanks for the post. You can accomplish the same thing without the download by right clicking on the picture, select edit, them select "image" from the toolbar, then select "sketch/skew", then type in a percentage value, then select "image"-then "attributes" to see if the percentage you entered made it small enough to post------a lot of screwing around. Your download simplifies it a lot. Yesterday I did learn how to "crop" a drawing and cut away all the unwanted background, thus only leaving the important part of the picture.---Here are 2 examples, one cropped and one uncropped.---Brian
