Needing a new avatar...

[Dannyalcatraz]

I’ve had this avatar for I don’t know how many years, and its age is showing. I would like to freshen things up with a new one. One that’s not quite so...pixelated.

What I need is a way to modify an image so that it will conform to the site’s size restrictions, and the thumbnail generators I used to use back in the day are now defunct.

Any suggestions?

If you have Windows 10 then Microsoft Paint 3D can resize.

Or paint.NET

Should’ve said: I’m strictly an Apple guy at this point in time. Predominantly on mobile devices, as well, unless I have serious writing to do. I have some oooooooooold art programs, but they don’t run properly on my current Mac

So ideally, I’m looking for an app or web-based solution.

Well, then I'm only as useful as my Google-fu, which I am sure you have as well.

I've used Pixlr as an editor before. It does a decent job of being a reasonable Photoshop-esque editor that works in a broswer.

For something simpler, since the board does use circular icons, something like Token Stamp, which is mostly intended for producing VTT tokens, might actually be well suited to your needs.

Yup, as a Windows PC based photographer, that information definitely would have been helpful for making recommendations.

Email it to a friend who has a computer and give the size specs needed?

What says you? For me I just found this pic of a woman in a flight suit, which often I have a mouse in a flight suit.

So, you want an app from at least a known provider?

How about - Adobe Spark?

Adobe Free Online Photo Editor | Adobe Express

Use the Adobe Express free online picture editor for quick and easy photo enhancement such as adding text to photos. Edit, crop, and resize automatically for social ready images in seconds.

spark.adobe.com

Which is just my Google-fu, searching on "photo editing" and scrolling down to the first major provider in the list. There's also Photoshop Express on the Apple store as well.

We have avatars?
