you can easily downsize any picture with a photo editor or paint program; Friede and I use Ultimate Paint for this purpose. a free version of the program is available online |

I understand your frustration, but just use something that fits their size, just don't use big size pics. I've never had problems adding avatars on PA.

Progarchives won't let me add what I want to add (sizing problems) so I just chose one of their lame defaults

I've had a few avatars during my 12½-year stay in PA. Once it was the CAMEL cover A Nod and a Wink, and when I lost it (there was some technical updating, I guess) I chose a picture from the list in the Control Panel. The shape of a white, much stylished horse against the black background was probably my longest-running avatar.
I just decided to change it at last. This is the cover of my second prog book, dealing with all-time Finnish prog. I designed it myself, using some album covers for the letters. EDIT: I changed my avatar (in April or May 2018, don't remember exactly) from the Prog Finlandia cover to Pieter Brueghel's Hunters in the Snow, one of my favourite paintings.

My avatar is an archetypal representation of how I would ideally do my computing.

A band web site is currently under construction. I can't tell when it will go up, but I hope we can get to that within a few weeks.

My original avatar is this one
which I chose because my avatar name is a song on an album with this cover. My current avatar is a protest against the discrimination of robots on this site!  It shows Robbie, an intelligent robot and main character of the popular German children's book 'Robbi, Tobbi und das Fliewatüüt' by Boy Lornsen. The picture is taken from the film adaption in 1972. |

My previous avatar was cat who went missing and is presumed dead, so I changed my avatar to this pic of my Les Paul Classic Plus. My Les Paul was stolen early last summer, though, along with some high dollar guitar synths and effects devices. I've replaced many of the effects and synths, but I will be getting by for awhile with half way decent but cheap guitars. I'd like to get a Les Paul Classic Custom one day, but my next guitar will probably be a Gibson SG whenever I can swing the cash or credit. I haven't updated my avatar yet. I'm in no hurry, I suppose
