I can't for the life of me find an avatar small enough to qualify for this site (20 x 20 pixels). Where do you guys find 'em?

The maximum dimensions are: width: 172 pixels, height: 120 pixels, file size: 6.00 KiB.

I used the free image editing program Irfanview (install plugins too) to crop, resize and the "Save for Web" function to make it meet the requirements:

Incidentally, would either TGB or Luke like to provide a link and/or instructions on how to "Mad Men" one's photo for use as an Avatar? (Or even just for the heck of it? :mrgreen: )
Cry of Justice -- 2007 Novel of the Year (CSPA retailer poll)
The King of Stories -- Gospel harmonization
Sword To The Heart -- progressing synthetic metaphysical argument, arriving at orthodox trinitarianism (and from there to universalism)
