Do the resizing Bicubic (=better than bilinear or nearest neigbour or whatever). Make sure it's no bigger than 100x100 and 10000 bytes (the limits of this site). Save in gif with as many colors as you can without going oversize. __ "In dnb you should make people jump not swim" - Pieter Frenssen 2004 10-12-2004 23:09 drumnbass.be forum » Drumnbass scene » Offtopic banter » good/high resoultion avatars
