Can anyone give me tips on how to make my avatar bigger? Every time I try to edit it in Photoshop, I can't meet the requirements of 50 pixels X 50 Pixels and under 6k. Can anyone give me any tips? Like in this post, look at MBW1024. This guy has a huge pic of himself and his wife:

hi that's me .. mary beth :)
anywho. I link to my avatar via URL and I think that allows for the slightly larger size.
let me go look at the photo in photobucket and I will tell you how I did it.

ok so it looks like it was resized to 119x100. I forget if I did that in photobucket or before I uploaded it but it shouldn't matter.

then in photobucket I copied the code that said "direct link" and then in my profile I pasted it under "link to off site avatar".

try that.. i think those are the steps I took.
