Making PIXELS smaller for photo?

I can't seem to figure out how to make the pixels small enough for an avatar or even posting my pictures at all. How do I do it? Thanks

If you take the image into a graphics program (like photoshop or paint shop pro) you should be able to do it quite easily.
I've only got Adobe Photoshop, so I can only give instructions from there, but all are basically the same so shouldn't be difficult to work out.

In photoshop...Open the picture>Go to the 'Image' menu>Select 'Image Size'>then you'll see three numbers that are the 'width & height' & the 'resolution', if you decrease any of these numbers it will also decrease the size of the image (ie: the pixels).

Hope that made sense. If you don't have a graphics program available to you, I'm happy to let you email me the image/s and I'll resize them for you. Just PM me if you need it.

Cass.
