    How do I get a 131x82 3,300 byte jpg image to conform to the 65x65 pixel requirement for using as an avatar?

      Thanks Raz, but for now I only have stock windows 95 stuff including regular paint, and a really neat (at least I think so)
      avatar which is yet a little too big.

        Why don't you just attach the image to a post? I'm sure someone will transform it for you.

                    Test post to see if the image I uploaded will work.

                    (edit - image has to be 64x64 in .gif format)

                      Ehh... by making it a transparent gif

                      In Photoshop I selected the background with the magic wand with 40% tolerance (or something, can't remember exactly) and deleted it. Then a quick check against both colors background it can appear in and optimising in Image Ready et voila...

                          The same thing can be done with Paint Shop Pro as evidenced at left. Thank-you for the idea. .
