Avatar Sizing question

Post by future_trunks » Sun Dec 03, 2006 1:18 am

If I have some files on Photobucket, is there any way I can shrink it down to 80x80( there avatar size is 100x70 I believe. If someone could point me in the right direction...that would be great :)

Well, I use Photoshop to resize my avatars, if I have to. But I'm sure there's a simpler way with some other program.

Haha, I resized the image on paint. I just opened 2 MS Paints, made one 80x80 to see how small it was, and on the other...resized it.

I tried that but it just crops the picture and only shows the corner. :?

Try shrinking it by using Microsoft Office, then print screen it into Paint. That's how I used to do it.

Here's what I did.

Used MS Paint to put some white on the right and bottom.

Then used Imageshack to shrink it down to avatar size.

Then used MS Paint again to crop away the white again so that it was less than 80 by 80.

If someone needs an avatar resized, I'd be more than happy to do it. It'd only take two minutes :P

I think I may have found something but it asks what my forum has for the maximum pixels in an avatar. So do I put 80 for that?
