The Avatar Size Limit
 

I was just wondering wether the avatar size limit could be increased, because im finding it hard to find an avatar that fits :conf:
Im sure its not just me that has this problem :eureka:

yeah i think so too but it might be hard to do this

yer i know it would be hard, but it would be great if they could do it :thumbs:
something like 600x500 would be cool but i think thats probably too big

When forums have big avators, it makes the board uneven and a tad messy, so I think thats the reason.

Board Rules: An uploadable avatar's width can be no greater than 150 pixels, a height no greater than 160 pixels and a file size no more than 120000 bytes.

You can use a bigger picture for your avatar, but when you upload it to the site, it will be resized automatically. :thumbs:

Or ..... point me in the direction of the pic you'd like to use and I'll try to resize it for you. :spin:

Yep! :laugh: The banners that I make are 500x100! :bigsmile:

As Kaz said the picture will be resized when you upload it.

The easy way to use a large picture as an avatar is to save it to your computer first - right-click on it and go to 'Save Picture As'.

Then select it next to 'Upload avatar from your computer' in Edit Profile.

o right cool, yer i was wondering if saving it to your computer first might help this problem, woops i didnt realise how big 600x500 was sorry :conf: , ok ill try doing that :thumbs:

I have a picture but the file size is too big. Just wondering if that could be changed?
