I would like to include a picture of myself with my posts, like so many people here do, but I don't know how to take a picture and make it 20x20 pixels.

How do you do it?

If you really want to have some fun, go to
http://www.befunky.com/cartoonizer/index.php
to make a "cartoon" out of your picture.

For people with Windows XP, I have found that Microsoft Image Resizer (free) works wonderfully for reducing the size of a photo.
