Doesn't seem to be much action 'round these parts. But post a quick reply and show off your avatar.
Why?
I have no idea.

I know most of you hate the 3 pointed start, but you can't go wrong with an old MB diesel.

Does anybody know an easy way to resize a picture into an avatar? I've been trying for about an hour with no luck.

Basically you'll need a program like Photoshop, Paint Shop, etc. If you don't have those, you can download a free trial of something and give that a shot (try putting "image resize" in the search on download.com or similar).

Otherwise, attach whatever you want resized here and I'll do it for you for now... I'd like to hack in auto resizing for avatars at some point, since this seems to be a common problem.

Nothing like Hans Stuck in the Jagermeister 320, ca. 1977.

Yes I was only 2 years old but I've loved this car for years. I even have 1/43 and 1/18 scale models of this car.

Subject: Cool it with your ads for your websites and businesses . . .

It's one thing to make it your avatar, and another to spam the list with an image. I think the site should charge you if you make image posts commercial. Start a business forum if you want to do that there, and leave the rest of the site spam-free.
