|
|
Yes, this is going to sound pretty stupid but when you're putting up a picture for your profile picture, you have to resize it. I have this strange ImageResizerPowertoy thing and you can select photos to become small but whenever i try to put one that i've made small as my profile picture it says 'The avatar must be less than 140 pixels wide and 120 pixels high' and if i try to put a normal, un-resized one as my profile picture it says 'The avatar image file size must be less than 49 KB' !!!
How do you resize it to fit? agggghhhhhhhhhhhhh
This is very complicated and probably obvious to everyone apart from me but i am rubbish at explaining stuff  _________________ DAN! DAN! HE'S OUR MAN! IF HE CAN'T DO IT NO ONE CAN! |

I use photoshop to resize mine too.
On your resizing thing is there a way to choose how big the image is (like how many pixels wide/high)? That's what you need to do. _________________

I just print screen my picture into paint, then I cut out the actual picture I want, then I paste it into word and shrink it there. Then I print screen the shrunken picture back into paint and save the image.
It probably sounds really complicated but I don't have photoshop of anything
Anyway, it makes sense to me!  _________________ the safest place in life is now |

you can just skew the picture in paint..you won't have to size it in word. _________________
