I know children with more computer knowledge than me, but, I would like to post a picture of my Bronte like everyone else does next to their log in name. And also post one in a topic, because I promised them a picture. How exactly do I go about this? I tried to figure it out on my own, but I think I may have accidentally hacked into the CIA's secret covert website, so if you could help...and also if you want to know who assasinted JFK. Ha HA. Please help. April, Bronte's uncomputer savvy mom.

Open you picture in windows picture and fax viewer, I just double click on mine from my pictures and it opens in this program.

Run your arrow over the icons at the bottom until one reads ‘closes this program and opens the picture for editing’ – the icon looks like a blue picture.

Click on ‘Image’ at the top and from the drop down select ‘stretch and skew’

Change horizontal and vertical from 100% to 25% and save under a name you will remember and change save as type (at the bottom) to JPEG


Then on lightning strike go to –

Browse to choose your picture and then alter the size underneath 128 and 128 or mess around till you get it the size you want but 128 is the biggest.

Otherwise find out what program your pictures on in and maybe some else will be able to help.
