The forum software automatically resizes oversized images

Why do we have rules about sizes if the software will do it anyway?

it just saves file sizes - if you used a 100x100 avatar is still has 10,000 pixels in it, whereas if you used a 80x80 there'd only be 6,400

DarthInsuate: You you optimized my avatar. I clicked on the link in your post and it froze my comp!

Everything seems to be okay now though. I rebooted. Darn 8.4 gig system!

It will only re-size the avatar not the signature image.

I was trying to change my avatar but I get the error message that it's an unacceptable extension, but it's a .jpg. It says on the 'my controls' screen that those are acceptable extensions. Why am I receiving this error?

Also, how can I resize a picture to an acceptable avatar size? For example, 200x200 down to 50x50?

And yes, I've read the FAQ
