I'll resize it and email it back to you, but note that 50x50 is about the size of my buddy icon, so your car won't look especially impressive. : )

i think i did it , had to ctl c or copy the original pic, went to paint then redid paints attirbutes to 50x50 pixels then hit ctl v to paste the pic to paint (it asks to resize bitmap, say no) then screw around with strrech skew and move the pic around in that little box and WHAM there you go . then copy that picture and paste it over to a new jpeg file in kodak imaging and save that thing .....then i guess import it here ...anyway thanks anyway guys dont worry about sending that stuff i sent ya dauntless just trash it ........

gotaa appologize , i must have known a female screen-named dauntless or something cuz up untill today i thought you were a female maybe it was something else i dunno , looks like a few others round here thought the same way ...

Can the avatar size be uped. It needs to be bigger for cars and such, 50x50 is way too small.

Eh, they try to make fun of me, but only because they know I'm better than them. : )

I don't really mind, because generally as ruthless a comment as they can make, I can make worse. And then lock their post. : )
