How can you upload a larger avatar than the restricions?None of the avatars that I have for my other forums are allowed to be uploaded, and when it says you must comply with either one requirement of the other, it becomes you must comply with both. Or, at least, how do I make my avatar's filesize smaller?

Enchanced/Donators can have larger images as Avatar.
And no, there's no other way to get it.

Uploading a large avatar has been answered, but if you want to tweak one ofyour larger avatars for LO, you can use an image editor program. Macromedia FireWorks, Adobe Photoshop, and Jasc Paintshop Pro are the three "best" programs. They all have similar methods for exprting a file in a smaller size. A trial version for FireWorks can be found here (http://www.macromedia.com/downloads/). Be warned, it is a faily large installer.

For example, in FireWorks:
1. Open your avatar.
2. Resize the avatar to comply to the pixel restriction.
3. Go File -> Export Wizard.
4. Enter a maximum file size which complies with the LO restrictions.
5. Complete the Wizard. Make sure you check what the new filename and filetype is before you close.
6. Upload the Avatar into your LO Control Panel.

Other programs will use a similar method.

Hope that helps.
