resize it to 100x100 and save as jpg and it'll be under 10kB.

- No wider than 80 pixels
- No taller than 100 pixels

Then upload it imageshack and link to offsite avater put the link for the pic in there.

Will keep the quality then.

I've used avatar sizer before but to do my current one I print screened my MSN display picture and then cropped all the crap out of it in paint. Saved it as a J-peg and uploaded it directy to BCF.

I used the "Save for Web" feature lurking within Photoshop's File menu.

Thanks for all the advice guys. Changed the size using Paint Shop Pro and it seems to have worked.
