Question "How do I do this" question?
Being someone who has two hands full of thumbs with all things computer.
An awful lot of people have really interesting looking avatar pictures. Is there some way a member can see them displayed in a larger format, without breaking any of Lee's china?
THANKS!

I do not think so as the avatar size limit is to very, very small. Not a whole lot of pixels so trying to enlarge it would be very distorted if that's what you are trying to do??

Right click on my Hurricane warning flag and click properties. You will see how small it is.(2902 bytes)
So any avatar you can right click and save it as: and then try to enlarge it but it will distort.

Thanks!
I'll give it a try later. Hopefully, there'll be a happy medium where I can blow it up enough to see, but not turn it into a cartoon!
Thanks Again!

The avatar can be resized and posted as a picture in the main text body for viewing.

That's cool, I've never seen a cigar used as a straw before.

You look ..... presidential.

Thumbs up
But do I need Marty Feldman's help to do it?
Thanks Mickey!

(EDIT) I tried it. Your picture turned blue, then a nine digit number came up ###-##-####.
Something about a refinance @5.25%, a debit card access code, then some info about an account in the Caymans.
The rest of the stuff was too personal to share with the Forum?
Oh yeah, it also said you prefer super crunch Jif...

I re-sized my avatar to 60x60 in Photobucket. If you try to blow that up, you'll get pixels.
