My avatar isn't tiny enough!

[Hellyar]

Hi
I've tried to upload my avatar... but with no success.
It's 80 x 80 px, 72 dpi, jpg at 6... but I still cannot get it down to 6 kB. I even reduced the dpi to 40 and the jpg to 0, but still too big (16 kB).
Could anyone suggest a solution, please?
Thanks.

host it! (in the user control panel - link to offsite). keep it at 80*80 px, but the size limit is not applied for offsite. I keep my avatar on photobucket, but any _image_ hosting site is good.

Many thanks, hayasidist!
