If you want to have pictures open up to full size on a build thread, it is easier to open a photobucket account.

www.photobucket.com

When you load your pics onto Photobucket, you just copy and paste the full [IMG] code into your post and they will show as full size pics.

For your avatar pics, they need to be under 100mb if I remember correctly?? You can resize them by opening them in paint and pressing CTR+W to reduce the picture size.

Well that is working mate!

If anyone can help me post me up an avatar ( a small pic under my user name) it would be greatly appreciated. I have tried 2 different pics - 4844 kb jpeg and a 29265 kb paint shop pro 5 image.

I know theyre big but how do I condense them into small enough pics........??

Cheers

try google "image resizer " for your system.
Takes a minute to dowload and you can resize by left click. my picks went below140kb.......

if that helps. i just opened a photo bucket account, ill try again as soon as its ready for a full size pick.
