Get an image editing program.

It ain't rocket science.

i have Adobe but it doesn't have a place to change the pixels...just size and for me to make it small enough so the file size fits its way too tiny

Photoshop? Try resizing the image. Crop it first. Change measurements to pixels before anything else and keep dimensions linked.

Photoshop 7 lets you resize the image to specs you type in.

Image -> Image size -> Pixel dimension

Simple as that.

The image shape does not allow for a truly good job unless it's severely cropped.

I had the same prob with mine, I had to chop the 3rd squirrels rear end off a little. I do mine in paint though, its easy enough.

Hey ghost, could you do this one for me please? I also tried it with Adobe, I even shrank it to the size of a smiley, but it wouldn't accept it.
