My Avatar

[uniqcrafts]

Just added one, I had to see how it looked. Does anyone think it's too small... need a larger object? What's your opinion?

Hi Michelle ...

It is pretty but maybe a little to small ... how about trying a detail from the image ??

Hard to read the text on it, is the text important? Maybe crop it off:)

Thanks for your input. Look's like I'll have to find a different avatar. Well at least it's easy enough to do.

Michelle, its a little too small for me to see, maybe its just my eyes.

Real basic way is to find a really nice picture or art work you created, make it square then resize it to 80x80 (size for our site) then here is the trick...go to file then "save for web" instead of "save" or "save as" this will prepare the image for the site. This is only one way there are many more which I'm sure others will explain. Give it a try & let us know how it goes:D

Hi Robin,
One way is to use save for web, making it no more than 80 pixels on a side or less than 24.7 kb. (according to the rules in the user cp) Then go to where it says User CP in the top left corner and drill down to edit avatar, then just follow what it says.
Hope that helps
