Hey all I am havin trouble postin my own avatar. I want to use a picture of myself with a deer and cant figure out how to resize it correctly. I went to photobucket and resized it down to avatar, but it still said that the file was too large. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Try this link (http://www.shrinkpictures.com/create-avatar/) , just click on it and follow the instructions.
Don't forget to save it after your done.
