Title: I'd like an avatar, but my photo is 6.41 MB (MS Paint, .jpg), what can I do? Post by: OROBTC on July 22, 2015, 11:04:28 PM ...
I have the photo ready to go, except it is too large (6.41 MB). In MS Paint, and a .jpg file. I would certainly appreciate any help in "shrinking" it, or whatever, thank you. :) Title: Re: I'd like an avatar, but my photo is 6.41 MB (MS Paint, .jpg), what can I do? Post by: ColderThanIce on July 22, 2015, 11:22:22 PM You can try using paint.net and reducing the quality through that. To do so, open up the photo in paint.net, click Save and then a box will pop up allowing you to lower the quality until it's below the Bitcointalk threshold, which I believe is 1MB. I have a feeling that number is off, so if someone could correct me that would be awesome.

Post by: Karpeles on July 23, 2015, 12:49:58 AM Go to ms paint, and then resize the photo, and lower the quality if needed. At least with me the quality and file size is lowered when I do it or save in different format.
Or go to services and offer a bounty for the first that do it for you Title: Re: I'd like an avatar, but my photo is 6.41 MB (MS Paint, .jpg), what can I do?

I put this thread here in "Meta" because there was a kind-of similar thread here I found via "Search". ColderThanIce Karpeles nydiacaskey01 everaja Thanks for the help. Tomorrow (Thurs, US time) I will see if I can put my avatar in (the picture is at my office). Each of you: want a tip? Then PM me w/ precise instructions and BTC address. Bitcoin only. Once I get my avatar in. * * * And, for anyone wondering how someone can get to be a "Hero Member" not knowing how to do this kind of stuff (non-programmer to boot), the secret is: ask! :) Title: Re: I'd like an avatar, but my photo is 6.41 MB (MS Paint, .jpg), what can I do?

Success! Thanks to all of you. I did as instructed at MS Paint. Now that I have something, I can tinker with the sizing to maybe make it look better. * * * ColderThanIce Karpeles nydiacaskey01 everaja dogie All of you please send me instructions re BTC tip via PM.
