Skype Journal: Photo Cropping for your Skype Client

June 9, 2005 03:33 PM

I still remember the pain. Trying to make my first 96 by 96 pixel photo for my Skype profile. Just found this neat free service on the Skype Forum. In less than a minute up can upload a photo, crop it, and download a 96 x 96 back to your desktop.

The free service is located here.

Works like this:

1. Browse to the original photo on your PC using the Browse Button.

2. Click on Upload

3. Crop the photo...

Why do I need a 96x96 photo?

Same comment as Phil? For my photo I just cropped a photo with what I wanted on it, not bothering about the size, and Skype resized it automatically.
