It needs to be 100x100 pixels, you can edit in a imaging program (such as photoshop) or you can give it us (attach it to a post) and one of us will do it for you.

Re: those icons

There are some that might be suitable (after some massaging) here:
http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=...=Google+Search

.. but I suggest you don't pick that one from the second page

Re: those icons

Don't forget animated ones must be edited in an animation program rather than just resized in the usual progs.

Paint Shop Pro has an add on called "Animation Shop" or you can get free progs that will do the same job or use one of the on-line editors.

Again if you have one and want us to re-size it for you just attach a copy of the original.

@ DQ1 - I think for avatars the max size is 80 x 80 pixels or 15KB, whichever is smaller.

Animation Shop is excellent.

Re: those icons

Don't suppose anyone can 'shrink' this down in size can they?

Would like to support London 2012 - but cannot find any small pictures to add to my signature.
