Resize a pic for my av?

[SusyQ]

I downloaded the iview program someone recommended, but I don't know how to use it to resize my picture. Can some more technologically sophisticated person help me?

Thanks!

Grab a free copy of IrfanView.

You can crop in the edit menu and resize in the image menu.

That's because it's less than half the allowable dimensions.

Go back to the original image. (save it to your hard-drive again if necessary.)

Open the image with IrfanView and lick "Image" on the Menu Bar.

On the Image Menu, click Resize/Resample

In the Resize/Resample Dialog make sure the units are pixels and enter 150 for the larger dimension and click OK.

Chose File->Save As and to the right of the save as dialog, there should be a JPeG/GIF Options dialogue. Enter a new filename like "<original name> AV" and choose JPEG as the file type to Save As.

Before Saving, check the Image Quality slider in in the JPeG options and make sure it is at 70% or lower (higher compression/Lower Quality) Click Save.

99.9% of non-animated images will then be suitable for a Literotic Avatar, (but be too big for most other vBulletin-based forums.) The process can be repeated for other size limits changing only the size for the the largest dimension.

(NB The process is esentially the same for any other image editor/manager that allows you to set the JPeG compression level/quality)
