If you have Microsoft Office picture Manager-click on the photo; click on edit pictures; click resize; go to custom width x heigth and make sure the pic is less than 100 x 100 pixels; make sure less than 8 KB; save the photo; go to profile on pedigreequery; go down to upload avatar from your machine; click on browse; find the newly saved photo (click on it); and then click on submit.

Hope this helps! I just tried it today due to your post!

yea, they are great, unfortunately I dont have that on my PC. Everything you can think of with Microsoft office and everything with the word Picture in it, just not that one :( if I ty to download it, it messes up other programs, the pains of having an older PC. Oh well, no biggiejusat a tiny picture anyways :(

You can shrink a picture using Paint as well, if you have that. If not, email me the picture and I can shrink it for you.

You can also go to a photo sharing site like Photobucket, which is free to join. Upload your photo and then go to your album, click on the photo and go under Image Link Code. Look for the IMG code, highlight it and cut and paste it into the code for your avatar under your profile on this site. :D
