Avatar limit is 80 x 80 pixels. Bitmap images commonly have more bytes that are allowed, so these will be the exception to the pixel rule. Same goes with sig. pic's.

Sig. pictures have to have an online address and should be arranged like this: [img] http, etc.... [/img]

Go to the newbie forum and look at the thread called Q & A by bluedamsel.

Thanks GITM.

Arab--All of this is covered in the "Newbie FAQ" I understand that you aren't a "newbie" but it's all there, including several of us who have volunteered to help shrink avs etc.

Oh, cool. I didn't know you created a FAQ page, sweet. I'll link any future ?'s to it, from now on.

Aye, I got bored the other night, and a little tired of the same questions all the time (especially when people kept saying "Ask blue, she'll help! ) So I decided to help the mods out a bit & set it all up! Thanks!

[Arab Bronco]

thanx, i'm gonna try to do that now.
i have another question, the signature pic, does it have to have an online address? because just edited one and want to put that in.

[BlueDamsel]

Yes, one way around getting it uploaded is to "attach it" to one of your posts, right click it & scroll down to properties, copy & paste the http address that it has...It's a little known secret that I don't usually tell...One thing about that is that if your post gets moved or deleted though, then you're SOL...

[griffinistheman]

Yup, yup...I know that trick...lol.^^

Arab...you're missing the slash ( / ) in your image tag.
