????????????????

i see your siggy...what is the problem firemonkey?

very pretty kitty. i have made some fun pets there. my daughter lil'monkey has a pink dog on her myspace.

if you mean why won't the kitty show up instead of a link? those type of graffics are disabled in siggy's. uses too much bandwidth.

Ok,i'll scrap the sig. Thanks for explaining.

You can dowload a copy of IrfanView from: http://www.irfanview.net/ (It's free. And it doesn't contain any tracking stuff or other junk that you don't want.)

Open your file.

Then click on image / resize-resample.

Make sure 'preserve aspect ratio' is checked and then set the new size to 80 <<-- you should set the BIGGER number to 80 (the smaller number will automatically resize). (For example, if your picture is 500 x 600, you would change the '600' to 80; the 500 would automatically change to '66'.)

Then save the file with a NEW name. I usually put "th' at the beginning or end of the new file name so that I know it's a thumbnail image.

There ya' go!! You can use that new file for either an avatar or a siggy pic.

Good luck!!

Hugs.

Barb,
The size of my sig was within the limits.

the siggy's do not allow html codes.

Yeah, but, pictures and things will show up using BBCode -- see below:
