Can anyone help me with my profile picture, as getting it right seems to be difficult, as it says the file should not be larger than 20 pixels wide or something like that, but as you can see it doesnt come up properly, I'm using Paint and Microsoft Picture Manager but both seems to end up making the picture way smaller than it should be?

Re: Profile Picture
It's trial and error to get it right, I've found the simplest way is to re-size any photo you wish to use with Paint.net program (same as Paint but more features) to the limit that it says on here: (Maximum dimensions; width: 120 pixels, height: 120 pixels, file size: 50.78 KiB.)
Save a back-up copy of your original photo so you don't end up with just a small one.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

20x20 would indeed be very tiny.
I use a mobile, and so there are no avatars or images to see except pictures within the threads.
At least you got it sorted now
