How do you make it small enough to use? Can't seem to get it below abuout 12k.

I don't think avatars are working anyway - I uploaded one about 5 times with no luck.

I tried uploading one several times too, but to no avail.

if you have a programme like dell photo studio( i used this ) or paint shop pro etc you should have a option called "resize". there should then be another option so you can resize by pixels rather than mm. this should reduce the size of file needed to contain the picture without reducing it to the size of an ant!

Solved the problem.

It seems the only way to get the avatar pics to work is to host the image on a website.

Installing from my hard drive failed time and time again.
