Can someone help me to make an avatar out of this pic
of our wonderful Congressional hero, Barbara Lee?

I can reduce it in size, but don't seem to have the means to change it from 4k to 3k.

Thanks!!! :)

Hero!

1. I have always wondered...
Is she related to the king of chicken in the Louisville area, Barber Lee?

13. I think my original is too tall vertically.
When I upload her as an avatar, she ends up squished vertically. Would you be able to crop her from the bottom a bit? :)

(I need to get a program like Photoshop to do that, I think.)

9. In order to use an avatar in DU, the avator must be no larger than
48 x 48 . . . all of those are LARGER and thus will be rejected if used as a DU avatar . . .

11. The options page accepted both of the pics that were posted,
but I think she needs to be cropped from the bottom, since her picture seems to be squished vertically.

More help? :)

12. I think the last one I posted
looks about right, a tad smaller than you need, but proportionally it looks ok.

15. Here's a copy in proportion and at max size (2.75kb)
Edited on Wed Jun-22-05 02:34 AM by JohnnyRingo
I cropped the bottom off to square it up and renamed the file so it will change the image in your profile



DU stretches the JPG to 48X48, even if it's a rectangle.
