Resizing Picture For Signature

This may not be the place to ask, but I have a picture that i want to set as my signature. Every time I try it cuts part of it out. Anyone know how to fix it?

 

send me the picture and Ill do it and send it to you

1st gen problems...

In all seriousness, read the instructions when uploading a signature pic:

Don't worry about the file size in KB. The system will downsample your signature pic to a GIF smaller than 15 KB.

 

Will send right now. Email tylernorton32@yahoo.com I sent it in a link it should work if it doesn't I'll send it back. Thank you!

 

Do you mean just set it as signature and it will resize for me?

 

No, it won't accept a file larger than 250x500, but if your image is 60k, the system will automatically lower the resolution to bring it down to 15k.

For comparison, my sig pic is 385x168. 250 x 500 is allowed, but IMHO, it's annoyingly large.

 

I had trouble w/ mine also as you can see. Would be nice to get some info on how to do it right.

 

1 or 2?

 

Here's what I do
1. open original pic on computer
2. right click, and open with paint
3. crop to however you like
4. click resize and make sure your'e resizing in pixels.
5. Resize to anything under 500 x 250 pixels.
6. Upload to photobucket and post on TW

BOOM

 

Wow, you make it sound so easy. Thank you so much for doing it and letting me know how!

 

Here ya go.

Crop to roughly 2:1 proportions, then resize to bring it to forum limits at a "natural" percentage, in this case, 75% worked well.

 

No problem, sent you an email with both pictures

 

Or this one... a little shorter...

 

Looks good!

 

wasnt sure if he wanted to keep the scenery, personally I like the shorter one OP.

 

Ya.. loved the trees. Foreground was meh, but this makes the truck bigger.

 

so can anyone tell me what Im doing wrong to get this sig pic to submit . I uploaded it through the computer . I don't have photobuckit . I tried what Tacoskeet said to do with paint . I have it less than 500x250 or 75%. Its bout to drive me nuts .

 

It was easier for me to use a website and edit it. Go to http://ipiccy.com/ and just click start edititing.
