Avatar size?

Post by Apollo »

Maybe there should be a maximum avatar size implemented to avoid avatars stretching the 'natural' frame sizes?


Not only would it make the forums alot easier to view (no more left/right scrolling to see posts (even on my 1900x1280 resolution), as well as probably decrease loading times on the board (which seem to have been a problem as of late).

Just my 2 cents though....

There are maximum dimensions as listed in your profile which are:

" its width can be no greater than 125 pixels, the height no greater than 125 pixels, and the file size no more than 6 KB"

I have been flexible with this maximum dimensions if the avatar is close to the above limits for an avatar that is uploaded from a URL.

What I normally do if I find an avatar over the max dimensions I send a PM to resize the image. If the image does not get resized after 48 hours I generally delete or remove the avatar upload option for that particular user.

If you know of a avatar that is way over the maximum dimensions please send me a PM or email and I will contact the user to let them know of the avatar limits.

To find your avatars dimension right click on the image and select properties.
