April 7Apr 7 I've been trying to use a screenshot from a flight sim I took as a profile picture, but I am unable to make it small enough to meet the 245 kb maximum size limit. That is a ridiculously small file size that makes it impossible to use any FS screenshot as a profile picture. I've tried cropping the image, resizing the image and converting the image to jpg but the file size is still too large. The smallest I can get it is 320 kb and I have no idea how to decrease the file size any further without destroying the image quality.

April 8Apr 8 Not sure where you got 245kb from? Says 2MB max … I just added a 6kb image to my profile. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. - Carl Sagan

This is where I got it from: I used to have a profile picture uploaded but now it's disappeared. The old image I used was much larger than 245 KB, but now it seems I've been restricted to 245 KB and my old image was deleted.

April 9Apr 9 Administrators Anyhoo, @Zylx now has his requested pic in his profile photo!
