how to edit this s**t??! i'm about loosing my night with that.
i act like that: i use photoshop to edit a picture. i go to image size and i put it at 75x75 pixel, as suggested. but the kib dimension is always more than 10 kib, to arrive near 10kib i have a super little image...
how to do that?

same bro ive been tryin to figure that shit out too

sample it in 8bit

lol...i tried on photoshop and failed aswell... try doing it on paint and save it as a .gif... that discards some color information and brings the size down considerably... don't know if u can upload gifs as an avatar tho...might as well try

link it from photobucket or something like that

tiny pic is the best for that

thanx for all your suggestions.
normally photoshop is consdered the best for editing images...but fuck it, i will follow your instruction

You need to use the "File > Save for Web" option in Photoshop. This way it compresses the image. Should be pretty easy to make it less than 10kB that way, but I changed the maximum file size to 20kB just in case.

If you still can't get it to work please email me your avatar and I will set it up for you. Or just use an image host like tinypic.com like suggested by other members.

hey keesj, this is very kind thanx! i will try that and in case....thanx

thanx keesj, don't even knew this function in photoshop!
PEACE
