Admin Posted September 14, 2011 Report Posted September 14, 2011 As the title says, I have applied a fix that will allow you to use animated avatars again. Please re-upload/change your avatar/photo for this to take effect.
freddy333 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 The avatars used to be rectangular, but now they are square. I do not remember the old dimensions, but the new avatars get resized to 90x90px. So, for optimal quality, you need to make your avatar 90x90px, otherwise the system will resize/reshape whatever you have to that size, which can cause distortions of the image.
freddy333 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 If you right-click any avatar on a forum page & select View Image Info (or similar, depending on your browser), you will see that, regardless of the pic's original size, the forum software scales the pic down to 90x90px.
vlydog Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 no such option available when I right click. using Google chrome
Admin Posted September 15, 2011 Author Report Posted September 15, 2011 Hmm...apparently there are still some new settings I haven't discovered. I'll have a look at the avatar sizes.
vlydog Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 Avatar appearing on profile page is not the one that appears in posts. Please help. Thanks
freddy333 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Posted September 15, 2011 vlydog - It should be the same pic, but just resized (smaller) in the forums. If the pic is actually different, then I would upload the pic to your profile again & then flush your browser's cache to be sure your browser is displaying the newly upped pic in the forums.
