That site makes it very convenient, but it is making the avatars square. They don't have to be. Squaring up might change the proportions of what you want. BCF has a max size of 80x80, and mine is 80x60. Any resizing software can be used.

JP,

Thanks for the tip. That worked really well.

Art,

I don't see a link for your site?

Paul,
No problem....some times I can be such a geek. I hope that translates into a really nice car as my project moves forward.

So the red one is the TR8? Got a site for that one?

I think Art was referring to the site Hondo put up.

I was just really commenting on the fact that the site that the OP linked to automatically squared off the avatar, <span style="font-weight: bold">which you might not want done</span>. Max size for BCF is 80x80, so as long as you stay within that size you will be OK. I didn't link to any re-sizing program, as I figured that there must be a bunch of them on the internet that will just re-size to anything you want.

I'd imagine you should be able to find one to your liking here. :smile:
