I've never experienced such issues in trying to change my avatar before. I've always been able to just upload a pic and that's that. But now I keep getting that "exceeds dimensions" notice, no matter how many times I've run my pic through web resizer. Is there an easier way to do this? What am I missing here?

I use paint which, if you go under Image, then Attributes, it gives you the size. You can change the size from Image, Sketch/Skew to keep the photo in perspective by using the percentage option.

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

Thanks, tazzy. Do we know what size it's supposed to be, to get into CM? I made it tiny tiny on web resizer, so much so, I couldn't tell what the picture was anymore, and it still didn't work.

145 x 145 if you are talking about the avatar for the message boards.

Thank you, poise! Just sent it off to another kind poster, right before you offered.

It just wasn't working for me. I'm avatar-challenged!
