Dude - its not that hard man. Find a picture you want. Move the file to your desk top.

Go to the website; hit the browse button; then click the custom circle; then put in 110 maximum; and then hit enter. Then the picture should show up - right click it and it "save"

If that doesn't work send it to me - I'll resize it for you and sent it back. I'll PM you my email.
