Can't change picture
« on: September 03, 2006, 20:21:47 pm »
I'm having trouble changing my profile picture. It lets me download, but the picture stays the same. Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

Hi,
I just posted the picture and Gareth did it for me. I know others who know how to do it so maybe post it and someone can do it for you.

The picture needs to be no bigger than 120 pixels wide and 160 pixels tall and no more than 100kb in file size.

I've managed to change mine by reducing it so much the quality doesn't look good anymore (and stupidly overwriting the original in the process >:()

nope, in reducing the size I thought I did save as, but seem to have just saved it at the reduced pixel size, overwriting the original quality. Ugh!
