Avatar Size and Space Allowance


Tay

Recommended Posts

Hi! I'd like feedback on two changes:

  1. 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.
  2. 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?

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.

Unfortunately IPB seems intent on making my desired avatar look like crap no matter what. http://i.imgur.com/ubruG00.gif

The 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.

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?

This is great, and thank you for this, but it looks like the editing process caused the file size to inflate beyond the limits.

Sorry for all the off-topics :P

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.

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.
