Large avi's are pretty annoying IMO...I wouldn't raise it Very Happy
Io Lee

considering Butler had the same avi as long as I remember *flashback*
Darth Samuel

Butler has had that avatar since he joined. I remember that day.

I have not had that same avi since I joined! I protest! It's true! Just ask Rive Wink
Darth Samuel

okay, you've changed it around a couple of times, but the one you have right now is the same one you've had since March 9, 2006.
Anakin

Whats wrong with the current?

Nope! Rive touched up my old one for me so this is my current one.

Indeed, for many a moon Butler was using the avatar directly from StarWars.com, which is designed to be displayed on a white background.



See the little white above her head? Ewwwwww! So as a nice little thing for Butler, I cleaned it up and made it a tiny bit bigger.



So wait, is this a real issue? I think the file size limit is plenty for fitting any JPG or PNG of 130x130 pixels. I'll bump it up slightly if you're actually having issues.

I make my avatars 125x125 and I can't do much without going over the file limit. Like... not alot at all...

Are you talking about using the "upload avatar from URL" or the "Link to off-site avatar" option?

Link to off-site shouldn't have any (besides the pixel regs) requirements - I think.

If you're having issues with "upload avatar from URL," I apologize, myfreeforums.org doesn't give us much space to hold avatars on the site, so we only give enough space for small gif avatars - like Butler's, otherwise you need to link off-site. Photobucket works well enough that I really don't want to place extra strain on our database if not needed.
Lord Embeion

Yea I use Off-site...
Rive Caedo

I've doubled the "uploaded avatar" filesize max. But I still think it only applies to "Upload avatar from URL" instead of "Link to Off-Site Avatar" - so tell me if you're still having issues.
