Hi Tech Guys,

My computer buddy and I have tried to add my avatar photo to my name, but it was not accepted, saying the photo was too large.

Yet when we reduced the size gradually down to as low as one-third the size allowed, it was still rejected, saying photo was too large.

Can you offer any help?

I'm not the tech guy here but try using this site to size or avatar. The size is 100 x 100 pixels.

Richard,
In addition to making your file no larger than 100x100 pixels as Mr Scribner advised,
you must ensure that your file is also no larger than 15k. All the best! Dev/

Thanks so much, Dave, for your suggestion. I'm going to try it.

By the way, many years ago, my grandparents had a cottage in Lake Hopatcong, and my grandfather got up very early everyday to fish the whole day. When a youngter, I spent lots of time in Lake Hopatcong, and always enjoyed it, especially an occasional trip to Bertrands Island (not sure of the spelling) where all the amusement park attractions were.

Small world. Bob Cassidy (mastermindreader)also spent time here in Lake Hopatcong. I live just 2 blocks from the lake. Nice view. Lots of memories of Bertrands island (now an island of condo's). Tuesday night was nickel night. I remember my family used to go there first and then ride over the bridge to river styxx to play miniature golf. (also no longer there)

Hey there Richard. It seems that you were successful.
It's always nice to put a face on the name.
Have a great weekend!

Yes, Devious, I was successful, based on the help you guys gave me.
Strangely enough, I didn't hear from the forum's tech guys at all.

Not strange at all. Both Devious and I gave the assistance you needed. There was no need for our tech folks to get involved. Besides, with the amount of work required to keep the Café operating everyday, posting an avatar just wasn't on the top of the things to do list, especially since the problem has been addressed before with other members.
