I'm trying to upload an image on to my profile using Avatar but the max size is only 40 KB. What application has other people used to upload their images? I can't get below 70 KB on mine.

I changed the size of my pictures with the olympus picture program I use to upload pictures from my camera on to my computer.

If you like to send me a picture attached to an email I am happy to resize it and load it up for you.

I never really like MBs. I always resize to no larger than 100 pixels. Most programs allow you to do that. If I were you, I'd take Tony up on his offer! :D

You need to put your photo on a hosting site (I use Photobucket) and then copy and paste the link with [IMG] tags around it into your forums post.
