Why won't this work for my avatar?


Something witty and profound

Leave out the IMG tags? It looks like that's what your avatar is pointing to now.

My guess is that it's the usual Avatar wonkiness on the boards.

I was testing Fista's link to make sure it worked.

Anyone know how to keep the forum from resizing avatars? The one I would like to use is about 45 x 45 and looks good at that size. The forum resizes it up to 80 x 80 and the avatar gets pixleated and looks not so good.

Find a bigger, original picture? Resample it down to the correct size?

Forum forces 80 x 80 regardless of what you try to put in; some people like to put in hi-res, full size pictures at 5+ megs and have it load up in the 80x80 size. Fun stuff!

Well crud, guess I'll have to find something else. Wanted to use my Battalion Coin from Iraq but I've only got a single digital image of its design and that image is a low quality JPEG.

Ask whoever you stole it from if they have a bigger picture?

I'd copy the source avatar and paste it into the middle of a new 80x80 avatar. That way your avatar is 80x80, but your pic is still 45x45 inside it.

I resize all of mine to fit 80x80.

When I put in a new avatar I usually have to try 4-5 times just to get it to show up.

Just once or twice for me. Change it, let it time out, refresh, let it time out again, then usually good to go.
