Tay Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Hi! I'd like feedback on two changes:I've updated the avatar sizes on all themes except Rooke's Crappy Default Theme because... well... it's crappy. They should now be showing at ~120x120. Thoughts? If your avatar has some artifacts, you may need to re-upload it.I've upped avatar max size to 220kb. If you use image compression, this should be able to handle the vast majority of images. This work for everyone? Redpanda, Darklord Rooke, Emi and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tay Posted October 24, 2015 Author Share Posted October 24, 2015 Question: Can we has rectangular avatars?For whatever (poor) reason, no, not yet. It's not me, it's a software limitation. I'm fighting the good fight, however, and hopefully I'll get it changed soon.I'm doing it for you, Flutterz, so don't give up on me.

Decay Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Unfortunately IPB seems intent on making my desired avatar look like crap no matter what. http://i.imgur.com/ubruG00.gifThe built-in cropping system is straight up refusing to do anything, so I'll have to edit the image manually but I don't know how with gifs. Maybe someone here could help me? That would be really cool if so. Edited October 24, 2015 by Decay Tay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zodai Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Testing, Testing. This is a test of the New Avatar Size in correlation to the clarity of mine. Please wait for test results... Test complete. Mildly blurry. ;-; Should I go look for a better version of this one or just swap to my waifu or something?

Rose Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) I miss my rectangular avatar. ): Maybe it's time to change avatars again, it has been a long time since I last did it. Edited October 24, 2015 by Rose Tay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosebleed Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 So the curse of the squares still prevails. Well, I'll take this over nothing.I seem to have a problem with quality loss though.I tried re-uploading a version of my avatar that's exactly 120x120 and it gets so much noise and artifacts when I upload it on fuwa.Any ideas?Edit: Uploading a PNG seems to have less issues. JPG gets completely borked though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipsed Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 RIP rectangles, though upping the cap to 220 kb is nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPG gets completely borked though.It has to be doing something weird with the scaling. I've seen some simple avatars with large, crisp source images look like crap. This sounds stupid, but I wonder if it's downscaling to the old resolution of 90x90 then upscaling back to 120x120. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceris Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Good thing my avatar was/still is larger than the "120x120" so I don't have to do anything. I made it battling the old MB restriction, and luckily it looks good enough that I can be lazy and not do it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Blue Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 if you are still using your old avatar it will look a bit blurry because is stretching from 90x90 to 120x120 so the best thing to do is re-upload it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzu Fanatic Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I had to do some fiddling and resizing, but I was able to get Suzu back from the blurry hell she was in for awhile. Still, It's doing a lot better then it was at first - miss the option to use rectangular crops, but I'll live~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
