Need help with adding pic.

#1

Post by txcshooter »

I took a pic with my phone camera and wanted to add it as my profile pic, but wasn't allowed since the pic size was too big. Does anyone know how I can make it smaller? :headscratch

Try using TinyPic

Still didn't work. It only brought it down to 7.25KB and it needs to be no larger than 6KB.

save it on your desktop and open it in paint. Click on the image menu at the top and go to resize/skew. In the resize slots take the horizontal and vertical size from 100 to 50. Leave the Skew alone. Repeat until its the size you want.
