I am used to having images be downsized, but on the Car And Driver Forums, you can submit an avitar of any size and they make it smaller. I'd like it if you could do that too.

For a small fee, I could do that.

Does someone do that, or is it a function of the forums (like a mod or hack)?

I just use Vicman's Photo Editor. Its a free download and really simple to use, you open the pic and click "edit", "resize", and enter the dimensions, takes about 3 seconds!

probably just a simple hack, to say that any uploaded image must be displayed at 80x80

well, if the server's got the GD Libraries installed in it you can mess around with a lot of images and what not, create images and modify images....if Larry and Jack have them, it's probably some easy thing like

PHP Code:

  <?php

if ($imagesize > 80x80){

$gdimageresize 80x80;

$functionsavegdimageupdatedwithnewresolution;

}else{

poop

}

?>

that's really nothing, but it would probably be pretty easy, i really haven't messed with the gd functions of php...
