Avatar sizes
 
Can we possibly have larger/longer avatars, maybe 150 x 300 or something, as it would make the forum look a little nicer tbh it would just be nice and also 150 x 160 is an odd shape...

As well as that, can we maybe have larger avatar sizes, because 122kb is nothing and my avatar ends up always being blurry, it's really annoying

please ty

Yes plz I'm bored of ugly square avi's, I think the length limit should atleast be increased.

Jessica. 13-01-2016 05:09 PM

150x300 would look ridiculous and tacky, I think 150x160 is perfectly fine, I've seen lots of forums that only have 80x80. :joker:

Ridiculous height all together.

no it would be more like this, hold on

Jessica. 13-01-2016 05:10 PM

Also if the file size limit was increased there would be an influx of ridiculously crass gifs that people use. :umm2:

I know it wouldn't be stretched, I was just trying to see what the height would look like.

I think it would increase the data storage and bandwidth needed considerably.

something like these would be good (maybe not as big), but the general proportion of the images

I agree, don't really think it's needed tbh

Jay. 13-01-2016 05:15 PM

ya'll cannot disagree with avatars as blurry as that!

also @josy since i got my new mac everything on tibb is blurry is it bc retina display

Jamie89 13-01-2016 05:17 PM

Also, if it's the proportions that don't look good, it doesn't have to be 150x160, you can make your avi thinner.

Calderyon 13-01-2016 05:17 PM

Behindbb has 200x200 sized avatars as a maximum. Would that be enough?

You got your Mac??? Why did you not tell me tbh

Smithy 13-01-2016 05:30 PM

I agree with a file size increase, not by much, maybe 200kb?

Crimson Dynamo 13-01-2016 05:46 PM

Only for over 30s

under 20s should not be able to have avatars

Smithy 13-01-2016 05:47 PM

Over 30s shouldn't be allowed on the Internet tbh :hee:

Jordan. 13-01-2016 05:48 PM

I suppose the oldies would benefit most with their bad eye sight

Jake. 13-01-2016 05:50 PM

an audio description under each avi to help the elderly?

you should be looking for jobs you lazy bastards :fist:

lostalex 13-01-2016 06:33 PM

i was expecting this to be a complaint about how obnoxiously big some people's are, but you are actually saying people should have bigger?

No. please no.

and while we are on the subject can we please have some limitations on the amount of text people have in their sigs and get rid of the gifs, and get rid of the "spoiler" cheats.

seriously people i've had the same avas and sigs for over 5 years... you don't need all this ****, and stop advertising your pet project threads in your sigs.

i really think we need a new rule, no more animated gifs in sigs. the gifs are just obnoxious.

(except for jessica, because that's a damn cute little hippo, and i love it)
