I believe I have enabled users to upload their own avatars with a maximum width of 150px and a maximum height of 200px. Please let me know if there are any problems.

Re: User Avatars
I think perhaps the file size limit could be risen a tad, otherwise the larger the avatar, the lower the quality to stay at the limit.
Otherwise, this a very useful feature, and I'm sure people will like it.

That's a good point plus many won't know how to decrease file size.Big Daddy O'Reilly wrote:I think perhaps the file size limit could be risen a tad, otherwise the larger the avatar, the lower the quality to stay at the limit.

Re: User Avatars
I'm gonna start making an avatar but for now the file size is just a wee bit too small for my liking. Any way that can be changed?

Re: User Avatars
I'll probably be keeping this one as my avatar for most of the fall/winter. I tried to find out who made them but I can't seem to find the original site. I used these for the Corner Gas forums a few years ago. So cool! I like yours too. Btw, the logo for the forum is awesome.

EDIT: Scratch that idea, I'm using one I made for now. If you can't read it, it says "Fine leather scares me"

Re: User Avatars
I have doubled the file size for avatars from 6kB to 12kB. I really have no idea what would be a good limit; if the size limit is too high, pages here will take longer to load. So we will continue to play it by ear.

I think 12 is okay so far, I haven't had much problems.RJ wrote:I have doubled the file size for avatars from 6kB to 12kB. I really have no idea what would be a good limit; if the size limit is too high, pages here will take longer to load. So we will continue to play it by ear.
