All my own logo's which I tried to use are "too big" can this be changed in order to allow individuals avatars to be used?
In actual fact, any pc running any version of Windows has the easiest avatar-modifying software pre-installed (and best of all-it's free!)
Just click on the Start Menu>Accessories>Paint
You can open most types of file (i.e. jpeg, bitmap etc) with Paint. If you open the image which is too big, you can check the attributes in the "Image>Attributes" menu within Paint, which will give you the Width, Height and file size.
To shrink a large image to meet the size limits, choose "Image>Stretch/Skew" and type in an appropriate Stretch factor (i.e. less than 100%).
Save your new, smaller file (check the attributes again) then try uploading it again. Takes about 2 minutes, little or no hassle!!
