Picture help?

Originally published at Vylar Kaftan. You can comment here or there.

Since I never bother to change my LJ icon, I would like to use my professional picture. It’s located here:

http://www.vylarkaftan.net/about-me/

It’s also located as a file on my computer. Every time I try to upload it (either cropping it square, or not) it comes out fuzzy.

Anyone know why? Can anyone help me do it right, either by telling me how or (if you have good tools) just helping me do it?

ETA: Thanks, Peer! How does this look? It’s much better than my attempts.

I dunno "what's wrong". My first two guesses are (1) compression artifacts, and/or (2) zooming artifacts from seeing a 100x100 image blown up to significantly larger scale in the preview.

At any rate, I snagged the image and made two thumbnails for you. I'll send 'em by email from my hotmail account.

(Edit: sent to your web at vylarkaftan address.)

Oh sweet. How does it look? I used pic #2 because it looked better on my screen.

works for me. I liked #2 better, too, but I figured I'd give you options. :-)

It's you! I haven't seen you in so long.

Hmm! Maybe I should put up a few recent pics of me and Shannon.
