    Is this a well-documented fact -- or is it a matter of browser? What browser are you using?

    Tried Firefox 2.0.0.3, Opera 9.10, and Safari 1.03. None of these browsers show an upload button under profile. All that is available is to select an icon from the huge icon list.

    MS Explorer? (I know, shudder the thought...but often has the latest accessibility). Hate the thought of needing "the others" for anything(!) image

    I think three installed browsers is enough for me. Trashed Netscape a while back. Cannot even remember Explorer, too long ago.

    Having a PC isn't any guarantee of uploading one successfully either, Mozin. I use a PC and have tried at least 3 different months to upload one here. No matter how many pixels I downsized my photo to, even like 50X50, it always says "it's too large ,image" so I gave up. image
    I never thought that growing old would happen so fast.

    My photos are stored on Picasso2 software. Does anyone know how to shrink photos down to 100x100 on Picasso2? I've not been able to figure it out. Thanks.

    I just noticed You a "IKE" collector.

    I need a clad Bi Centinal 1976 MS 66
    and another IKE clad 71 thru 78 MS66
    for My dollar type set.

    Also when You have the time explain the "Type" differances,
    example 1972P Type I,II,III or the 1976 Type I,II,etc.

    Thanks Jim

    If it keeps saying the file is too large, are you checking to make sure the file is saved as jpg?

    Just changing a bmp. to jpg. reduces the file size a whole bunch.
  • I'm traveling that day, but hope I can get online between 10 and 4 to get mine changed. Not sure what I'll change it to.

    Yes, I believe I did. I use Photoshop Elements 2 to resize the pixel amounts but there must be some other way to reduce the actual KB size that I'm not computer-savvy enough to figure out? image

    Is it kosher to use the icon of a banned member, in his honor? image
  • joefrojoefro Posts: 1,872 ✭✭
    Got the fro pic up. I had really wanted to use the following one that Graphix made for me which is awesome! But I cant seem to get it under 10KB even though its a jpg. The only way I can get it under is to shrink it WAY under the 100 pixels. Can anyone help shrink the following image to icon specs without making it indistinguishable?

    Got 1 up but it isn't my favorite.
    Can't shrink the following ones to less than 10k. Anyone have ideas how to do it in photoshop?
