I have reduced a photo to 100 x 75 in photobucket but can not make it into an avatar. What exactly must I do? I have no problem using photos in photobucket in threads I start here.

What do you mean you can't make it into an avatar?
Any photo/image smaller than 150x150 and 29k will work.

Also, you can try uploading it from your hard drive to see if that works any different.

Thank you Ron. You save my PC from an awful fate. I am from the days of the slide rule but I try to learn. If you have a chance can you tell me what I did wrong.
Thanks again
Doug

It worked for me without changing anything at all.
I right-clicked on your photo, then selected properties, highlighted the name and copied it.
Then I went to the Edit Avatar form and pasted the name into "Option 1 - Enter the URL to the Image on Another Website"
Then I clicked on "Save Changes"
Boom! Your photo is my avatar. I've since changed it to one of mine though.
