Dear Tubby:

The maximum size for a custom avatar is the smaller of 100 X 100 pixels or 200 bytes. However, I noticed the available avatars to choose from are mostly greater than 200 bytes.

I can get my avatar below the pixel maximum, but the resulting bytes (or KB in this case) are well in excess of 200 bytes. Can you increase the size of bytes without taking up too much storage space? Thanks!

Try to upload you Avatar now, I've increase the file size by 5x I would hope that should solve your problem. If you are still having problems email me your Avatar and I will resize.

Thanks for helping with my avatar. I'm a Sinise-freak, as you can see.

How ignorant I am, what is a Sinise, or who is a Sinise?

Don't feel badly, Bill, I don't know either.

That's okay. I was mad for Mel Gibson before anyone really knew who he was, too!

Anyway, Gary Sinise is currently on CSI:NY. His most famous role is probably as the Vietnam Vet amputee Lt. Dan in "Forrest Gump". He was also the bad guy in "Ransom". He started the Steppenwolf Theater in Chicago at the age of 18. Let's see, what else? Oh yeah, Apollo 13. He was the friend of Anthony Hopkins in "Human Stain".

He's a great actor, but chooses some quirky roles sometimes, so you've probably seen him but don't remember it.

Here's a website that lists his other parts, if you're interested. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000641/

I though he was wonderful in "Forest Gump" but I didn't know his name.

They don't make pictures like that anymore.
