Scaling down avatar images
 
I assume it's possible to insert something into the URL for an image to make it fit the pixel limit for an avatar. Could someone tell me how to do this?

This time I'm going to write it down somewhere so I don't have to make another thread like this... I asked a similar question a while ago. My apologies.

You can't do that, as the URL field only accepts a URL. To do what you want to do, you'd need HTML. It is designed this way to stop such things happening :p

You'll have to manually resize the avatar you want, or it won't be accepted.

Alcar...

Hmm... If you have a program like Photoshop, you can resize the image... Photoshop can do evrything :P ...almost.

The program PAINT should do the job.

Paint has a very poor quality...

I treid that doing 100x100 pixes, but the Bites were to big, there wasn't a way I could get it the bites smaller enought to fit, so I PMed Alcar to do it.

I see. Thank you.

Bites? You mean that the file is too big? Save it as .Gif or .Jpg....
