Jack-Jack is cute but I'm tired of looking at him. I have a photo from the files that I want to use but it's 740 X 1024.

GRM rulebook says 100 X 100. How do I do this?

EDIT: And then you can teach me how to spell down size !!

Open paint

open picture file

"save as" picture file name with small added before the file type

click "image" on upper tool bar

click "stretch/skew"

reduce the size incrementally until it meets your size requirements.

Right click on the picture and choose edit. That should open MSPaint, click on Image in the tool bar and select Attributes.

Change the numbers to 100 x 100 (ideally you'd keep the aspect ratio, so for the picture you mentioned, 72x100 should work without squishing it too badly)

It's better up close & personal, you can see the shell just outside the muzzle brake.

The auto-resizing feature is cool and it works.

Voila, my first (not necessarily permanent) avatar.

Haha, that cat is enormous! And has a Rorschach inkblot test on its underside.

^ Spitz was indeed huge - over 30lbs and the most docile, lovable pile of fur one could imagine.

I adopted his "mini-me" version a couple of years ago to help fill the void.

RIP, Spitz.

Not crazy about the M-776 being fired in Yuma, went to a default.
