What happened? Did someone from another board brag that they had a bigger avatar than you? Remember, its not the size of the avatar, its how you use it. :ugeek:

No ... someone had a nice rectangle and at 90x90 it would have lost it's effect

Thank you Sparks (or somebody), I have a favorite avatar that I like to use but I couldn’t make it small enough before. I have 3 or 4 photo editing programs in my computer, but they couldn’t shrink it enough for this board. Not even Photoshop could do it. I even tried cropping the sides, but it remained the same size and wouldn’t be accepted.

Now, you can all enjoy the sight of one of my grand puppies, Shorty. He adopted one of the little girls next door and she brings him over for visits with his Mom and Dad, and us sometimes. He remembers all of us, and sometimes he calls down to us from their upstairs balcony. He usually says something like “Hey, how about a bone or a cookie?” Fortunately, I am fluent in dog speak, so I understand every bark and growl.

The picture was taken a couple of years ago at the Christmas season, and he is wearing his felt reindeer horns.

It all depends on which hat you wear and where you wear it !

How about increasing the file size besides the physical size. Thanks
