Default why can't I upload a pic to be my avatar?

Hi,
I've followed all the instructions to upload an avatar pic and I've done it plenty of times before on other forums but it keeps telling me it's failed to upload... Can anyone help please?
Thanks

Ok, it's too big, can you resize it to 90x90, then it will upload fine

Do you have an art program called paint on your computer, if so you can resize it on there.

Upload it to Photobucket and re-size it that way.

If you have a printer some of these come with a program were you can edit and change pictures. My one is Lexmark and it allows me to do all sorts of things including resizing pictures and adjusting the colour. If you have anything like this it may be worth giving it a go. Make a copy of the picture before you mess around with this then if you get it wrong you have not lost the picture and you can just keep making copies and edit them until you get what you want.
