Avatar problem

Hey guys. I'm having trouble with my avatar. I find a picture that I like, open it up in Adobe Photoshop CS, make it smaller, then, save, go to upload the image and it just gets really picky, 'must be smaller than 10kb' - Ok, fair enough, 'must be 100 pixels width and 80 length' - What! Like it matters! It has to be exactly that or it won't let me.

doesnt it let you have one smaller (pixel size) ?

if not just adjust the canvas size untill its correct then save it as jpg/gif

I can't seem to get it smaller than 10KB, can only get it to about 18KB

In photoshop use the "Save for Web" option, not the save option.

Then you can adjust the quality and end up with a small file that is really good quality.
