I apologize for using the message boards for a question about the message boards.....

Trying upload an avatar and they all seem to exceed the 6kb limit.
Being only so-so computer savy, is there a way to resize (might be wrong term) a pix to fit in the 6Kb limit? :?:

Thanks guys.

Open up paint or paintshop in Windows under accessories. Open the file in there and use the resize function.
