signature pic size

[Hoo Dad]

I've noticed that some members signature pictures are larger in height and or width than others. Is there a way to increase the size of the pic?

Hoo Dad, I mover this thread from the Rockwood.

And I honestly don't know how to answer your question.

Thanks, I figured you had a bigger pic because you were a moderator.

[mtnguy]

Not really sure. I put the question out to the other moderators and administrators.

Signature pics can be a maximum of 468x60 pixels OR 19.5 kilobytes whichever is smaller. You can adjust the size and color density to make the photo big or colorful but not both.

Most photo editors will let you play with photo size in pixels or lock file size in bytes.

you can use Microsoft's Paint program - it will let you adjust the size of your picture - if you need a sertain pic adjusted you can post it and let me know what size you want it and I can fix and repost back

I tried everything under the moon to resize, even after I did it, it says file invalid, I think it doesnt like BMP files....................arrrggggggg
And I am a software engineer, you would think this would be simple for me..

try changing it to a jpeg.
when you have the picture open do a File Save as then click the bottom where bmp is and change to jpeg

Bet the file is too big
