What am i doing wrong? I put my photo on to Photobucket, crop and then resize to make under 100 X 100 pixels. I keep the proportion the same and on Photob it looks fine. i then upload it as an avatar and it stretches! This just doesn't look like me! I have a long face and this is making it look wider - it is stretching horizontally! I have tried with several photos and they all stretch!

This is NOT me thinking I am thinner than i am! It is not the same as the original photo!
