Guess you haven't noticed my Avatar or signature thats been on for a while Joe  ====================================

"Open Mike Night " sounded like a lot of fun until i found out i was going to an Autopsy

How did you manage to have that quality of picture as an avatar ?

I only ask, as when I joined I wanted to use a picture of my car for my avatar, but no matter what I did with the quality and resizing in Photoshop, it was always too big a file..........

The L405 is growing on me.........I quite like it.

Will go and have a see at the dealer when its out. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

@ JOKER - no I hadn't noticed

Just thought I'd do one of the full images (as opposed to "arty" crops), and post it rather than ramming it flashingly down everyones throats with every post I make  .

Don't know about Photoshop - never used it. Conversion/reduction will all depend on the resolution of the original image.

I use Imagemajick a command line convertor (though you can get GUI's for it) on Linux but you can get a windows version too.

Simply run: convert input.jpg -resize 640x output.jpg

to get an image 640 wide by whatever height


Here is the original image from JLR at 960 x 600

I figured it out when looking at the JOKERs avatar (borrowed it from him ) and found out it was linkedin.
Rather than an upload of a small file you can also choose to link to a URL on the web with your avatar, either an animated or a still GIF that has the proper measurements but maybe not the file size. RR's that are part of my car timeline since I bought my first RR Classic in 1999:
