    I just opened a pic of myself in word and shrunk it.

    I shall (possibly) attempt to do this --tomorrow. I'm very tired. :)
    Any idea how I know that it's at or under 100 pixels by 100 pixels as are the WF's avatar limits?

    Not a clue. I wouldn't even have known to try it in paint if I hadn't asked Joel. I just shrunk it to like 50% of what it was before.

    You can upload it to imageshack or something and use the link. It'll shrink it down for you.

    Thanks! :)
    This, I will remember. I bet photobucket does something similar. If not, then, I'll just have to get an imageshack thingie.

    You can do custom resize in Photobucket now, too. 's handy.

    If I placed an avatar of a squirrel?
    Would it count?

    Not uh, I can't.
    Mom and dad are big sneaks.
    If they saw my real image on the internet we have a giant lecture and everything.
    And my face is to tough for the internet, no one should steal my face[there are people who steal pictures mostly myspace kids].
    So yeah.
    In most cases in the picture Tavern I post a squirrel.
    So why wouldn't a squirrel avatar count?

    I have this inside joke.

    Just to cool for people to see. :)

    No member, particularly a minor, will be pressured to post his or her real picture. This is still the Internet, and the safety of our members is a primary concern.

    The Avatar Photo Week is completely voluntary.
