Thanks...I will try those programs tomorrow.

I tried to put one of those grumpys in...I got this message:

Retrieval of remote file failed

Its best to save the avatar to your computer and upload it to the fourm it has a place to find file on computer and send that way workes great!

If you need more help resizing your photos let us know!

Catherine...do you mean IRFAN view? This is what I found when I searched. I think I used to use this on my old computer and have been looking for it since. Can you check the name before I download? Thanks!

thats it Janet. I always add that extra N in there when I'm telling people about it for some reason.

No problem...there is something out there with the N in it but it was in a different language! Didn't want to be downloading something weird!!
