Another way is sign onto to a photo hosting site (such as photobuckets.com) which has a resizing option.

Another option for avatars not mentioned in the thread I linked is to buy one of the ubiquitous 1.4 inch "digital photo albums" and put the picture you want as an avatar on the keychain (or whatever) and then save it back to your computer: That results in a 128x128 pixel BMP image

Of course, that is a "kluge" way of resizing that only produces 128x128 pixel "True Color" Bitmaps which are both smaller than Lit allows as avatars and too big for Lit's filesize limitation (because bitmap images aren't compressed at all. Almost any image editing/viewing/managing software can convert BMP to JPeG format to resolve the filesize problem.

Irfanview, otoh, is an image management program specifically designed to make massage images into shape for online uses like avatars, profile pictures, signature pictures, and e-mailing. It's only real drawback is that it doesn'twork on MACs.

Thanks again, Harold!

It will work on mine, I don't have a Mac.

I'll look those up.

If I just wanted shrink a pic I use paint. One of the options is to resize, and almost everyone has it.

If I just wanted shrink a pic I use paint. One of the options is to resize, and almost everyone has it.

The problem with Paint is that it -- or at least the version I have -- only recognises seven image formats and four of those seven are different color density bitmap images.

Irfanview, GIMP, paintshop pro, photoshop, and others recognise anywhere from fifty to one hundred twenty different image formats and thus give you a much wider base of images to select from.

image resizer

Microsoft Powertoys has an image resizer you can download here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/Downloads/powertoys/Xppowertoys.mspx

Scroll down to find image resizer, the download is on the right. Once installed, all you need to do is right click on the image or picture you want to re-size, and the drop down menu appears.
