Help with the avatars

[Scoops]

Please......I have been going over all my saved images..many are the right size, but some are not....How do I downsize them?

btw, by reading an earlier post to right click on the image then click edit, then attributes, I don't get edit when I right click...I have to click open, then click properties, and I can view the attributes. Now what? lol

Thanks in advance!

Hey, Scoops...

I recommend going to www.gifworks.com and uploading those pics that are either too large size wise or file wise...

There are so many different graphics programs out there that there is no way to know what to do in all of them...

When you get there, simply upload the pic in question (It will downsize animated gifs, too...) Read the help file for resizing, and follow the directions. It's pretty straight forward..

It will tell you the dimensions of the pic... Simply reduce the largest side to 100 pixels.. the shorter side will follow accordingly.

I don't know the post you are referring to, cause I don't have edit as an option on my right click, either... But I do have "properties" down at the bottom.. That should give you both the dimensions and the file size..

There was some information posted about MS Paint that includes attributes under "image" at the top... That will tell you the size, but you shouldn't try to resize from there, unless you do the math to make both sides in proportion...

You can go to stretch and skew to make things smaller by changing the percentage in BOTH boxes the same. That's kind of a guessing game, though..
Get in a bind, feel free to send them to me.. I will size and return them..

PK hoping you aren't more confused than before....

You are the best...I was totally lost before, now at least I have some direction...glad you have properties down at the bottom of your right click too...thought I was doing something wrong there. Going to try downsizing some images...maybe once I get the hang of it, I can do it to my saved stuff. thanks so much!!!

[Scoops]

Hey, PK....I recently got 100 posts and I did get one avatar from someone...but where can I get more? for free?

[PK...]

Calling NotYou and Danielle to help Fantasia...

They are the ones with the sites...

I like the one you have - fits your name...

You can also google for "free avatars", or "free animated gifs", or "free clip art"...

Good luck..
