Dawsey,

Looks as if your image is not the right dimensions as it is being streched....

On your PC, right click the image and go to properties so you get the correct dimensions of the one you've uploaded then change the avatar settings :)

Quite simple....

Loaded the image in Paint Shop Pro or similar program and resized it to a width of 150 pixels, made a note of the height, for example my new avatar is 150x121 and then after uploading it to my webspace gave the info on the avatar page, works great every time...

Most important thing is to get the correct dimensions of the photo as if they are even a little bit out they will distort the photo.....
