Kev.O Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Can anyone help me please. I've finally taken some photos of my car and I want to use one of them as my avator but the file is way too big. How can you get around this? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael parker Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Not sure if you've got adobe photoshop or similar program??? Thats what i used to make the image smaller. select the pic to customize, goto "image size" at the top and reduce in size, save in a folder then upload to your avator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Nic, I've noticed that some people like yourself type your own e-mail address as it sounds (dot com = .com - at = @) rather that a direct link. Why is that mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Nic, I've noticed that some people like yourself type your own e-mail address as it sounds (dot com = .com - at = @) rather that a direct link. Why is that mate? There are spy programmes that automatically search through web pages for email addresses, the programmes detect the @/.com and copy the text around it, you then spammed.

Jake Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Nic, I've noticed that some people like yourself type your own e-mail address as it sounds (dot com = .com - at = @) rather that a direct link. Why is that mate? because spambots trawl websites havesting email addresses to sell to spammers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 thanks Nic, spambots, sounds like something out of the Matrix. Have to admit its impressive to think that the technology available to perform such a complicated task is out there, even though its a PITA. Looks like Jake's sorted the avator, but you can still e-mail it to me if you want. Ed at Suprastar dot org (see I catch on quick) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
