Can someone with tech skills help me out?
I'd like to put one of my paintings in my tag line, but the moderators said it was too large. Is there anyway to scale it down?

5. Use MS Paint
Every windows machine has MS Paint.
You just pick up the lower right corner and make it smaller.

Or, go into attributes and change the size.

Either way.

7. Use a graphics program to "resample" it and resize it.
I use Corel PhotoPaint, but you can download the free program Irfanview to resize the picture.

Irfanview

9. Here ya go

You have to resize these things in a program like Photoshop or Irfanview but I thought it might be easier to just go ahead and resize it for you.
