Ladies & Gentlemen,
Things are changing, it is important that you review your Avatar.
In coming weeks format will begin to change; the new settings for Avatar will
be 140 px x 140 px; any Avatar larger in either dimension will appear either
much smaller or be distorted.
If you need an image re-sized and don't have the ability post here.

can't figure out how to reduce the file size to 15KB! |
don't see any orders about a 15KB max ?
maybe you read that somewhere else, or it was edited out ?
15KB max wouldn't apply to avatars hosted offsite anyway, right ? _________________ User name Password »» Peepys:Only

but how can the "peepys phpBB" even know the file size if it is hosted off site ?
all she gets is a link, same size as any other link...
size is between the avatar host (uploader), and each particular viewer (downloader), right ?
maybe i'm missing something ? perhaps, over my head  _________________ User name Password »» Peepys:Only

imagejoiner
It comes in handy when making the Previews (* big snap shots joined in 1 Image )
The output is a little smaller but still retains the same quality as Image Grabber II
Most of the joining applications will let you "set" a quality factor or % of the output size.

This is a good decision. big avatars often occupy much of the space and one has to turn pages after pages for material. in my part of the world where one uses dial up connection it proves a nuizance. please consider us too in your policy. _________________ heights for a safe fall |

Yours is hosted @ thamks, mine @ photobucket but all of them are uploaded to and hosted @ our own database.
I think this shall be familiar to you...

Size do not change per each particular viewer. Is the same to any viewer.
