Im struggling to find a good pic for my avatar. How can i make a pic come under 8kb?????????
I pic i want is very simple but is still 27kb.
Any tips would be appreciated

Just use something like Paintshop Pro/Photoshop/Fireworks to make it smaller, if you dont have something like that or don't know how to do it, just email the pic to me and let me know your username and I'll sort it out for you.
Also just a reminder to everyone avatars bigger than 100 X 100 will not be tolerated, its ok for us people with adsl but it slows down pages loading for people with dial up, the site is hooked up to remove these after a few days of tolerance.
