128 x 128 pixel count on gravatars

Why aren’t you getting ready? You must be so busy. I guess I imagined you people working from your homes.
To respond to the 128 square, I did that on my computer, and Daisy’s head does not look right. It takes a few inches off her cheekbones. Isn’t that what you’d be doing? Daisy will bite you if you do that. She has BIG teeth. She will turn you into a snack.
That said, you are soooo sweet for asking to help with the image. I’m just thinking it would look like what I got it to look like when I cropped it to 128 x 128 on my computer. She bit me! (Either way, I need to know how to do it so I can try another avatar).
I can’t access the dashboards either. No worries. I can see what you’ve uploaded and show it to Daisy and see what she thinks. She’ll either sniff you down all the way to Hawaii or she’ll make you a lei.
ps: This is a trial avatar. I need to play with the background on it.
-
Ok, Daisy’s making you a lei. That’s exactly what it looked like when I cropped it at gravatar except that the pic is smaller. I miss her ears, though. So you must tell me, are you working at this on your off time? Am I stupid for asking that question? If it’s your off time, I’m not sending the pic. :-)

I’m at a standstill till Monday morning when I’ll do the final pack and walk out the door.
If you are on Windows, I would suggest downloading and installing the image editing program called “Gimp” which is free and feature packed.
I use Photoshop (way big bucks) and I can actually set the size crop I want and then the crop box will keep the proper proportion and I can adjust it back and forth to get the image just the way I want it. I expect Gimp can do that as well although I don’t know for sure.
-
Gimp it is. Thanks for the offer, though, it’s so sweet. I can do it. It’s my homework. I like what you did. It’s not nearly as sharp but it is 128 and she’s not distorted at all.
Monday is only a day away! You’re going to get a movie on the flight. I wonder what it will be.

Here is a different version. Daisy has white space above and below, so the picture is all included, but a tiny bit smaller:

This is the nicest forum. I wasn’t even going to start a site/blog because I didn’t have the time but the people here are making it easy. Thanks, 1tess. Last night, I took sacredpath’s pic and went to gravatar with it and I’m not sure if it’s coming up yet so I’ll know in a second. I’ll take timethief’s advice and contact support if it’s not up by tomorrow. It’s no big deal, though. I’m not losing any sleep over this.
Happy Sunday

I just meant to say that I’m not seeing her, not clear why you’d see my avatar and I wouldn’t. Hope that makes sense.

Right and when you cannot see what others see that’s often indicative of browser issues. So we do this http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/
In fact,any time we experienced similar “funkiness” then we force refresh our browsers, cache and cookies and sign in again several times. -
Yes, it takes time for it to get through all the different servers. I usually shows up in the forums first. I’m sure she will find her way to you soon!

sacredpath, if you’re out there…
I just downloaded Gimp software (for future cropping of pics) and got this popup, which I know is the norm, but I want to see if anyone here wouldn’t run it. So I went to Gimp’s site and clicked on the download for Windows 2000 and later and it took me to another site. It took an hour to download and I saved it and am running it. Thanks.
It says:

While files from the Internet can be useful, this file type can potentially harm your computer. Only run softwares from publishers you trust.
