the problem is the size, how do you "shrink it" to 150 x 150, as most of mine are 288 x 280 - do i need to photo shop it?

Upload the photo to there, choose 150px and you can download a resized version.

Then you can upload it as normal

When you resize it with that shrink picture I think you have to save it to your computer first, and then upload it to this site.

If you link straight from there it disappears after a while, which is why your avatar has gone funny!
