That's why we have or we had confs as: Signature limits, same with past eA rules Word filters, same as eA was, (Yeah remember my mistake with that one) Overall forum distribution etc. So I'm ready to ask about... the avatar size? why it is setted as pre-default? eA has the avatars at 150x150, actually we are at 90x90 My suggestion is to increase it. The 90x90 size it is just too small. I mean that is very close to that old 50x50 value of very old forums. .... And before someone says something, about "bla bla bla, so much space?" it is not the same case as signature, Since avatars carries space horizontaly instead of vertically as the signature does (we allways scroll vertically,... and never horizontaly lol). Thanks for reading. Just a simple suggestion that we know it can be changed easy in the forum conf. When you have time, and if people here thinks its okay, please consider it. Thumbs up if you are ok with this one. Edited January 3, 2012 by Olrox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex, for this image, it's 100x100: I guess we can increase it to 150px. Or would 125px be enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit too big as an avatar. I usually set my boards to maximum 150x150 (or around it like 140x140 and etc depending on the forum theme). We can try 125 first and see how that goes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the lady said ^ is the common value. 125 would be almost the same. Try 150, if you think it is too big (and some other members say that) leave it at 125? Edit: Im suggestin 150 by the main reason, that no one uses the entire "150x150", but it is the best to fit "rectangular avatars" such as this one --> http://rathena.org/b...e/photo-236.jpg for ex. that one could appear in the forum as a rectangular avatar by using only 125 horizontaly, and 150 vertically. But in the case of 125, would be around 100 horizontally and only 25 pixels more vertically. That wouldnt be so much difference.

Also I see the other members with the same size of their avatar. Maybe it is me? do I have to change something in my profile?

I think that maybe, it is a different setting that Brian forgot to change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed now, at least it looks like it. Maximum avatar dimensions = 150x150 Show users full photo in topic view; maximum width = 150 If you enter a numerical value, then the full member's photo is shown with a maximum width of the entered value. If 0 or nothing is entered, then the 100x100 cropped thumb is used. I wonder if the "Maximum avatar dimensions" was a setting leftover from before IPB 3.2 ? Ex: our IPB has the setting "Allow users to use remote URL avatars?" but I enabled it and nothing happened because IPB 3.2 dropped support for remote URL avatars and replaced it with Gravatar.

Edit: but it is setted as x200 oO? I think it is too big, x150 would be ok... but that is only me. If other people thinks it is okay, well leave it as it.

Recommend an image 200px or larger so I have come to the conclusion that this setting Maximum avatar dimensions 150x150 must have been for before IPB 3.2 Only the Show users full photo in topic view; maximum width = 150 setting seems to have any effect. PS: thanks Ind! for fixing IP Tracker skins to always use the 100x100 thumb image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there are others like Mercurial (x163 x x163)--> http://rathena.org/b...hena-home-page/ Maki (161x240) --> http://rathena.org/board/topic/56533-nexus-now-operational/page__st__20__p__66673#entry66673 I think that there is no limit. Since for ex. Maki has an avatar of x240 large. That is almost 2 times more than x150... just too big :S Edited January 3, 2012 by Olrox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: that didn't fix it So even though we set it to Show users full photo in topic view; maximum width = 150, members pictures wider than 150px are still showing =[ Has anyone else had this issue with IPB, or did I miss a setting somewhere ?

Just asking. I mean I love my avatar at this size xD but some others are even at x240 oO and that was soo far of my suggestion. A x240 is just too big? and maybe we have others more bigger than that, I mean, we will spend more time seing images than reading lines D:!
