How do you do an avatar?

Post by fivedragons »

It's time to change my cyber-name, and I want an avatar. Every time I enter a URL, I get a message saying "general error, unable to upload image."

What do I do?

Thanks.

Your image might be too big. There is a pretty small limit (for obvious reasons) on the size one's avatar can be.

This works well. It is what I used to turn the large soccer photo of me into an avatar.

Try it and let me know.

Thanks Van,

I had been trying to change my avatar as well but all my files were too big. Your suggested program worked great.

Enjoy the endless snow!

My new avatar now gives me a chance to keep on admiring my soccer legs I brought to Uechi :lol:
