    Imageshack likes to not actually host my picture all the time. It works for about 5 minutes per day.

    to answer that question, i'd need to go outside...

    Mhmm, that'll work.

    Yay for google image search! Though, without specifying "Avatar", I just got about 4 pictures of oswald and the rest various scantly-clad Odin Sphere girls.

    Easy peasy.
    How exactly do I resize it with something other than 'Scale picture'?

    I would. However, I don't have it saved locally to this computer so I need to wait for it to get back up again to save it.

    I´ll see if I can get a picture up, hold on.
    Oh, that. Considering the forums have a set limit just going to Bild > Skala bild and locking the ratio seems a bit easier.

    Of course I'd be using mods. As much as I would love to go digging for weeks, I don't have the patience to not just give myself infinite wool in all colors.

    Open a new window with 450x98 and then just paste the image in there and scale to the size you want it.
    I'm not noticing any difference besides that using the scale tool leaves the canvas the same size.

    All of that makes sense. Besides adding filters.

    http://i.imgur.com/5jsaD.jpg seriously. Look at that. That blue in the corner is just for a comparison...

    On second thought, screw my artistic thoughts. I'll go do math, instead.
