JDog Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 I took down my avatar as it showed my old Border terrier now sadly long gone and I needed something new. Pictures on my phone were resized as small and sent to my computer and saved but they still seem to be too large for avatar purposes. I am a bit thick when it comes to such matters so could someone please explain in words of one syllabus how to progress matters. I have not downloaded a resizing tool onto the computer.

aga man Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Whatever you tried earlier did work and showed a great picture of your 2 lovely dogs (spaniels) then it disappeared? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far too complicated for my simpleton brain to answer your query, but I notice that you, like many of us, also suffer from the problem of predictive text.

OB Yes sorry about that. Old age and frustration are not good bedfellows. Syllable syllable syllable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Do you run windows? There is a tool called paint which allows you to resize photos, if not I would be happy to resize it for you, contact me by PM if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I email the picture from one account to another, as the email program asks what size you want to send. Pick a size re open and attach as your avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted June 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Thank you Gentlemen for your replies. The circular avatar space is not suitable for the picture I wanted to put on so I have put up a shot of a green bank and blue sky taken just opposite my house.
