I need to see if someone knows how to resize an image without the extra blank space? Tried in Paint and dabbled a bit in photoshop. Any ideas? Would like to learn how to do it..

Thanks

What do you mean by blank space? Do you mean bars? You need to "Crop" it to eliminate any bars. Or are you referring to how to implement a transparent color?

Show me the pic and tell me what you want, I (unless someone else beats me to the punch) can help you out.

The blank space I was talking about is trying to resize in Paint. I know, Paint is useless, but all I have at work. And I don't have anything here at work that will crop. And using the current size - looks huge in forum avatar side. May jack with it at home later. No biggie.

If you can download programs 2 great freeware programs are:

1. XnView
2. Google Picassa

both have ups and downs, but have great functionality and are 100% Free. XnView is a bit more powerful for Power Users (Scriptable, batch functionality, etc.). Google Picassa is a little easier to use with a pretty interface and some kewl picture effects.

That's weird, when I save the pic you fixed, and upload to cardomain, then post the url to the avatar in profile = it still shows up huge. It's not the same pixel size as the the one you did. Tried like 10 times - same thing.......hmmmmmmmmmm :?

Make sure you can access the correct picture in car domain directly . . . by pasting the link into your browswers address bar. And, if the correct picture is displayed there then you should be good to go; double check the picture properties for the pixel size just to be sure because some browsers do dynamic sizing when loading a picture directly and not via a web page with html.

Not sure if Car Domain does anything funny with their links/pictures updloaded... but it may goof up if the link is actually to a dynamic script of some sort as opposed to the picture directly sitting out on a server.
