What size of image ? Avatar Issue.

[Wallace1297]

New to this forum. Trying to create an Avatar. Already tried variations in size of the same image about 12 times, nothing works.

Anything less than 100x100.

Image for using as your avatar needs to be 100 x 100 pixels max for THF Forums.
What software are you using to edit your avatar?

If I download an image from the Internet to use as an avatar here, how do I know what pixel size the image is ? All I can see is the dimensions and the size of the file e.g. 1280x755 and 242 kb.

Dimensions is pixel size.

That image is way too large.

1280x755, those are the pixel dimensions.

You need to reduce that to 100 x 100 pixels using the "resize" dialog in an image-editor (ie Office Picture Manager will do it although it's editing capabilities are very basic).

Otherwise install a free image editor or upload image to this free online editor: http://www.online-image-editor.com/

It will resize in pixels, I just checked with my own image.
