You likely need to re-size it first. If you have a photobucket account, they have pretty easy re-sizing options.  :icon_mrgreen:

Make it square (i.e. 100 x 100 pixels) and it won't distort.

After you have an image of proper size, click Profile at the top of your screen, then click Profile Information on the left of your screen. Right there at the top where it says "I have my own pic" Click that and paste in the image code.

with the [ img ] [/ img ]

does the image need to be in .gif format?

I'm trying to get this pic as my avatar and all I get is a distorted POS!

Can someone fix it for me?  I only use image shack and there is no option 100x100 only 100x75!

Thanks,

Nick
