Passionfruition you are so great at making all of these and I still cannot seem to figure out how to crop my pictures enough to fit anywhere ;( I have a mac but iphoto isn't letting me do it. Any ideas??? Simon and Hallie are feeling left out since I can't show off their funny pictures. thanks, Kimberly

Passionfruition · 04-04-2005, 05:46 PM

Thanks so much for your compliments! I just play around, really, so it's fun. I've really learned a lot since I started making these avatars, so it's been really worth it to have something useful to play around with.

Are the photos you want to use on dogster? Because if so, I can just save those on my hard drive and work from there. If they're not on dogster, and you would like to resize them just for your own sharing purposes, email them to me and I can resize them in two seconds and email them back to you - OR you can upload them full size to a free www.photobucket.com account and they have an option on there to resize your photos in your online album, one by one.

Hope this helps! I'm off of work tonight so free to play around on my computer. I've got a really nice Mac at work but don't have photoshop on it, so wouldn't know what program to use. But if you have ImageReady or photoshop for that matter, you can resize photos easily on there. If you need help with that, just PM me!

Thanks! I'm gonna try the suggestions you gave me. I also had professional pics taken and am picking them up on the 13th so hopefully I'll have some good ones of Simon and Hallie together. The only ones I have now are of them wrestling and it just looks like a big picture of fur and teeth (haha). I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks again, Kim

It would be so great if you could help me figure out how to get a picture of Lillie under my name! I'll email you her picture. It always tells me it is too big....

Passionfruition · 04-04-2005, 06:26 PM

Sure, email them to me at vmartin at johnsoncitypress dot com and I'll whip one up for you in no time!

Passionfruition · 04-04-2005, 07:32 PM

To get it under your name you can do one of two things:

1. Right click and choose "save as" - when you do, make sure the file, whatever you name it is fine, but make sure it has the .gif extension on the end of it.
- After you save it, go to the Control Panel of your YT page and click on avatar and click "browse" and upload your puppy's photo!

2. You can right click on the little pic on here and choose "properties" - When you do, find the web address where I have saved it on, and highlight it with your mouse. Right click on the text and choose "copy"
- After you copy that web address, go to the Control Panel and click on avatar and right click "paste" into the web address box for your avatar choosing option.

Don't feel bad, hey, you're just less nerdy than I am, haha! Hope that works and if not we'll get it another way. No worries!
