Changing image sizes

[Odracir]

I found a flag that I want to use as my national flag, but it's above the 6 kb limit. Does anyone know how I can change the image size so that I can use it as my flag?

Ask Punkerz. His avatar is huge.

Also, the nation that I'm sponsoring, TIM TIM, has a pretty huge flag.

I've used software to change images for use as flags. You can resize images or change their resolution when you save them to reduce their size.

You can use Image Composer, Image Ready, Photoshop, etc.

Or email the image to me and I'll do it.

Yeah, I tried Photoshop as well, but it didn't went that great - the pics were reduiced to a tinywiny size, otherwise they weren't small enough.

I downloaded (it costs a little bit) a program called EZ-pics. It handles things very easily.

Success! I can't have it as my avatar since it's a little too big. Check out my new flag on NS if you want to, though it's a bit small. To view her in all her glory click on the link.

When I use photoshop to make my flags, the pixel size is right, but the file size is way too big. The way I do it is make it 107x71 in photoshop, then copy>paste it into Paint, then just save it as a JPEG, and even though the pixels are the same, the paint jpeg is a smaller file.
