Get a program that re-sizes them, if you have windows XP, get this - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

install it, right click the image you want to upload, click 'custom' and change the dimensions to 90 and 90.
then that should be uploadable

If you're still having troubles, upload the pic to imageshack.us and paste a link here, me or someone else will do it for you
