Is there a way to change a screenshot from a dvd using the powerdvd program to an avatar????  I dont think there is but I want to make sure.

It is 144x108 so that isnt the problem. When I tryed to use it it said it wasnt the right kind of image.

That is easy to fix... Just right click on the pic and hit "Save As" to the right file type for a Ava.

Just pause the part of the movie that you are going to use, then get out some crayons and pencils, draw the picture exactly as it is, then scan it to put it on your computer and load it as your avatar.
