picture resizing

I want a picture up for an avatar, but I can't seem to resize it to the requested pixel amount.


Can anyone help me with a good program to download?

I only have paint and imaging on my laptop.

You can resize using paint. Go to www.tucows.com look under windows- graphics- (might be multimedia) ton of packages there.

try Irfanview, it's a small, but good Freeware photo editing program. It's good enough for resizing pics, but don't expect Photoshop/paint shop pro functions...

I download it (thanks btw) and now i resized it, but I can't right click to find the fild name to put in the avatar section in control panels..

How do I figure it out?

Check the tutorials in the Introductions forum
There is one about putting up an avatar, and one about using the upload function

Irfanview is a great program. I use it constantly for my "ghost hunting". It's a great little tool.

how do I get the file name to upload it to ats?

why don't you check out the tutorial(s) first, they're very handy...

You don't understand....

I know how to upload pictures...

But Irfanview doesn't give me the link I need to upload.

it only gives me c:/documents, ect....

I need to know how to get the file:////ect... to come up.

I can't do it like I used to....

You don't get a link from a graphics program. You edit the pic in whatever program you have (Photoshop, Paintshop, Irfan, etc). Save it to your pc. Go to ATS upload area and browse your pc for the picture you just saved. Click the upload button and copy the link it gives you at the top of the upload screen.
