Your MS office package might have a copy of MS photo editor.  If so, open it, then the picture you want, click image(at the top) and select resize.  Then, one of the options is to choose to resize by pixel and then set the highest number at 200 and the other number will change to maintain aspect ratio.  Click save as for a new version(to preserve the original) and then you can upload your avatar.

I have to scroll that if I want to see all of your avatar (what the heck is his name?  it's driving me crazy).  Scrolly, scrolly, scrolly.

You can resize and stuff, but nothing fancy.  It's freeware.  http://www.irfanview.com

It's good for cropping and cutting and resizing and viewing.
