80x80 and the file size has to be under 25-30kb Save it as a jpeg or gif NAT and bmp

make sure it is either jpg  or gif file type and most of the larger ones should be under the 28.0 KB size limit

( like my Avatar is 20.9 KB file size, 80x80 pixels picture resolution)

most that you see are in the 4 KB to 12 KB range some smaller some larger



as for squad noseart  ( for ingame ) you have to have them at 64 x64 pixels  and 5.05 KB file size in bmp file format )

hope this helps

edit: maybe it is 30KB max file size........ like Fugitive posted, something was telling me it was 28KB from memory, I might be wrong.... I did not know you could use BMP though for the Avatars on the BBS.... learn something new everyday  :aok

I think he meant NOT a bmp but I'm not entirely sure about that.

I did, and for some reason it keeps pulling up that the avatar is still to large

Maybe save it as 256 colors. Save it to "photobucket" and post a link here and one of us can maybe tweak it for you.
