Avatars

[Stolen Kisses]

Not sure if this is the right place but here goes.

I have several pics of my love- Vin Diesel. I would love to have him as my avatar but I do not know how to lower the pixels and have it not blurred or blotchy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreaciated.
Thanks. :)

If you have an image editor that will let you resize the picture, just set it is 120 x 120 or smaller.

Or post a pic here and I'll resize it for you. :D

Ok..remember that you are talking to a, less than intelligent, computer person here. How do you know if you have an image editor? lol

You can use paintbrush to "crope" it down. You may have to flip the image both horizontally and vertically as well. Just use the reisizing tools in paintbrush and you shouldn't have any problems.

It requires a very expensive special program and is very complicated and tedious to do. You better e-mail ALL your naked pics to me and I’ll see if I can do something on, … I mean, with them. :rolleyes2

what about animated Avatars?

[Aqua]

I don't know about for Mac, but Windows usually has a program called Paint that will allow you to resize your picture. Open your picture in paint, click on the Image menu, click attributes, set it for pixels and adjust set it for 120x120 or less. If your pic isn't an exact square (or at least close) it's gonna look funky. Say the original size is 700x600. In this case you would change the 700 to 120 and then try something like 100 or 90 in place of 600.

Slicker image editors, like Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop can auto adjust the second pixel setting to keep your picture looking 'normal' when you change the first setting, taking guess work and calculations out of the picture. (Pardon the pun. :p )

For animated Avatars you need a gif animator program. A gif animator will take a series of pics and 'play' them one after another. Sequential pics will look like motion (depending on how fast the pics change) while random pics will look like a slideshow.
