Yeah, that size would definitely work. But I thought it had to have a URL address that you input. I tried to save a smaller version to my Documents, but wouldn't accept it when I tried. |

Just so you know: You really shouldn't link to a picture off of another website without permission. You never know when the picture might be removed. And if the site admin gets angry at seeing his bandwidth being "stolen", he could change the image to something very unflattering and embarassing for you. If you don't own or operate the Encyclopedia of Fantastic Film & Television yourself, then you probably don't want to link to a picture on their site.
I've seen bad things happen to people who linked to things like that.
I strongly suggest that you find your own webspace where you have the permission to both (a) host an image and (b) link to it from off-site. _________________ Durin Mephit * Member of Guild of Messengers - Unless otherwise stated, opinions are mine only and not Guild endorsed.

On the outside you seem like a straight-laced good guy, Marten, but under the candy-covered coating I'm sure there's gooey lava made from pure evil. I'm afraid of your brain fondue. Pure evil.  _________________

Fair enough, Marten. Yeah, I don't wanna cause waves or rock the boat with anyone here or there. So, for now till I can get something figured thats more condusive & acceptable. I'll just take it down, and do without.
Thank you for your input. |

You could just go set up a photobucket account and drop pics into it, that's what I use for my avvies.
although now that I think about it, I don't have one here, do I...

Doesn't he? Beneith that zen-like calm lies the soul of a complete imp! I just know it! It could become our life's work, to get Marten to reveal his true nature. I bet he secretly attends toga parties and gets peeled grapes fed to him by scantily-clad serving wenches. _________________

Nope, I haven't made that happen. But I've read some very interesting stories about people to whom it has happened.

*ahem* The public spokesman for Marten can neither confirm nor deny this rumor. _________________ Durin Mephit * Member of Guild of Messengers - Unless otherwise stated, opinions are mine only and not Guild endorsed.

I was waiting for someone to paraphrase, "The fondue is strong with this one."
