Looking at pics to use for avatar, but need to reduce them to fit the size.
Anyone know of programmes readily available that help you do this?

Just a quick post that will help out those whom wish to resize and use animated GIFs as their avatars
Here is a link to a piece of software that is free to use, it doesnt have to be downloaded, you simply visit the site and resize your GIF, then you merely save the resized GIF image, easy
Here is the link

After clicking the above link you then click 'file' (up on the left) then either upload the GIF from your harddrive (click 'browse' on the right) or type in the URL of the GIF you want to resize then click 'fetch image' on the left
After you have uploaded the image it will pop up on screen and then you click 'edit' and then 'resize' and then type in the picture dimensions you want the picture to be, the picture will then reappear im its resized form and all you have to do is right click it and save it, easy!

I did suggest once before that maybe we could have a Techie forum, just like the Cafe, Dogging etc, where all the techie help could be placed and a few sticky ones? It would save the oldies getting annoyed and the newbies a lot of time (well the ones who read posts properly anyway). But because I'm a newbie no-one took it seriously sad

It wasn't because no one took it serious, for me it was a case of Oh no not another bloody board I have to read rolleyes
I happen to think having techie questons in the cafe produces more answers as I believe this area is read the most. Sticking it elsewhere might mean people won't bother to read it even though they might happen to know the answer. Giving it more exspoure should in theory, be more productive dunno

I see your point Dawn, thanks for the reply.
It is a shame as there are some lovely pieces of techie advice hidden deep in the Cafe which would be great to place somewhere more easily accessible.
But I understand how difficult and time consuming it must be to moderate thousands of posts... so I'll shut up now smile
