How to Upload An avatar; By Bodrul

Do you have the link to the picture you're trying to use?

I assume you want to use this image for your avatar?

It's going to need to be resized before using it here. I think the media site automatically resizes avatars, but this one doesn't so if it's too big for the space it just doesn't show, or shows strangely.

The limits I think are 160 pixels wide by 320 pixels tall, and 75 kb file size.

If you don't know how to resize I'd be happy to give it a go, or there are all sorts of excellent avatar artists around.



I was bored so I went ahead and resized it and loaded it into my MATS photo album. If you're happy with this version you can go ahead and paste this line into the Avatar URL blank in your MemCenter, or you could download it and reupload it to one of your photo albums and use a link from there.
