Try using the photo editor that came with your computer, and find something close to "Image Size" in the main menu. Select "Pixels" as your units and select the size. Make sure you hit "Constrain properties" if that function is there. Then merge the two photos. You can copy and paste to do this. If you don't have a paint program get Adobe Photoshop from someone or from online. Good luck! If that all doesn't work, you can always ask someone on the boards.

Do what I did be nice to someone on here and they'll help you out. If you go to the photochop section one of the people in there may help you out, they're good with their pic skillz.

Sign up at a place like www.yahoo.com or www.imagestation.com, the latter being the better one. Then link the URL into your sig and make sure you get rid of the last .orig.jpg part of the URL. PM me if you need more info.

I did some posts with a pictures linked form imagestation, but after about 5mins I got this note saying i can't link images outside of imagestation or somthing like that, so the only way you can link is from a website of your own right?

No, you must be doing something wrong because I link 99.99% of my pics from imagestation and I have no problems..........

Megatron, you're linking to an Attached photo in a thread at another forum... they aren't hosting the image, it's just attached so, it won't work.

Go to www.imagestation.com and upload your pic there, link the url without the .orig.jpg on the end, and it will work...

If you want proof, right-click my sig, and got to the properties, you'll find the url there.
