    You would have to size it before uploading it, probably. What kind of graphics program did you use to create the picture on your computer?

    I pulled the picture off the internet to MY PICTURES on the computer and then uploaded it to photobucket
    can I do anything to it using that system or do I need to do some thing different

    I use Photoshop Elements, doing a 'save for web' and setting the size at 100 x 100. I'm sure Paint shop Pro has a similar save as feature. If you don;t have either of these GIMP is a freebie that I'm sure will work.

    Just a side note, you don't need to post the pics to photobucket, etc. You can pull it right from your computer to xmarks to use.

    I've got Adobe Photoshop 7.0 and ImageReady 7.0 for my web design gigs; so feel free to email any image you want me to manipulate and resize. Contact me privately for details.

    This offer is open to anyone.
