actually it's saying that that one's too big. I got this:
"That image is too large. The maximum dimensions are 90 by 90 pixels."

i think it's too wide. on macs in iPhoto there's a feature that allows you to export the picture and resize it, if anyone has a mac here.

it's only 40 KB. the max is 48KB, I'll do more work :)

Hmm... This is pretty much as good as you can hope for, there's no point in trying to make it square, cos it'll just ruin the pic.

And it's less than 3 kb, let alone 48.

that's ok, i guess there are some things that paint brush can't do.

i think it was just too wide. you can't resize pics in paint, which sucks.

Since this thread is still on the homepage and so I don't have to make another thread named 'avatar resize' or something similar, could someone resize this picture for my avatar. As you can see I tried it myself but it didn't work too well. If no one does within a few days, I'll make a new thread.

i knew about that, it's just that you can't specify exact measurements. you have to guess & check til you get it right.

I use paintshop it comes with animation shop. You can either pay for it or use kazaa :)
There are freeware packages that do it, they were listed on UCP earlier but I can't find the post. Maybe you'll be luckier with a search.
or google for animated gif and you'll find options.

ha, found the other thread see from post 17 onward of http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3356&highlight=paintshop+animation
