For those who don't know how to change the size of an image to use as an avatar, I've found a bit of a trick using a photobucket account.

When you view your photo album in photobucket, their software has automatically created thumbnails of your images to display within your album. Rather than copying the url's that they give you...right click on the small image and select "view image" from the list. This will open a new webpage that only shows the smaller image. Copy the url from the upper bar and use that for your image. The image is usually renamed to something like image_t.jpg where the "_t" means that it is a thumbnail.

On some websites (not photobucket, I've found) you can simply right click on the thumbnail images and select "copy image location", but with photobucket this will give you the location of the full size image.

Just another quick way to get things done! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
