[OT] How do I shrink a .jpg?



I'd like to shrink this to 64x64, so that I could use it as my avatar.

How do I do that?

But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?

Sam: There’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

Your image isn't exactly square, so this is 64x59.

or you could try to get Horacio to make a morphing avatar of the Cow breaking through the white background. :: hides from Horacio ::

I use a image veiwer/editor that allows resizing, you can find them free on the net.

Awww Mooby hates my attempts and is too afraid to say so. It is ok if you don't like it and/or don't want to use it.

Maybe he simply wanted a standard static avatar...

Or maybe it's just that he hasn't seen your wonderful work yet.

I make web banners here at work for a living. (/hides)

I try not to have them animate unless they REALLY need too and they rarely ever do. Can you imagine what this board is going to look like if everyone had an animated banner/avatar?!

CHOAS I tell you CHAOS!!!!

Maybe I should start a section of S.H.I.N.Y. called S.I.I.N.Y (Static Images in the New Year)

Thanks, DragonGirl, but I just want a static image.

Really appreciate it, Hong. You rock!
