AVATAR Magic

Post by Parfait's Provider »

Cathy was in New Bern for our Carolinas Fleet meeting last weekend and offered to show me how easy it is to create a new AVATAR, but I was certain I could figure it out once sh helped me realize that I had used the Microsoft Picture It! the first time around. I just knew there was a simple way to create the right size AVATAR, but I couldn't remember what I did it was so simple.

Picture It! is included with Windows XP and it will convert your photo to the right size by using "Save As" and options. Once there, you can customize the size to 80 x 80 pixels and save it where you can find it when you need the path when updating your profile.

Have fun, you can see what it did for me!
Keep on sailing,
