Resizeable!

---

Anyone else wish people would resize they're damn avatars?

No, they all look the same to me and load as fast as anything else.

Some take forever to load the page (average Joes) inperticular.

They should be reduced to 90 x 90 pixels, if they're bigger than that. Any image editing program can do it.Also, if the image is non-square and bigger than 90 pixels in either dimension, it will be distorted when it's forced into a 90 x 90 box for display. An image smaller than 90 x 90, even if it's not square, should not be a problem.

Actually, AverageJoe's isn't bad. It' just a little bigger than 90 x 90, not too many kilobytes, although it's non-square, and gets squished in when it's displayed.The one he attatched to his message is actually Knuckler's avatar. Yes' it's that big. It takes a while (if you have a slow Internet connection) to load each time it goes into your browser's cache. Ironically, he has a smaller version of the same photo on his blog Web site.IronButterfly's avatar is huge (in terms of kilobytes).

I think I am better now...I went from picture to text.

I mean sig...I think my avatar is better too.

I think Java was referring to the avatars on the left (or was she...?), but smaller or nor sig pictures is also fine. Sigs can be easily turned off with no great loss, but it's nice to have avatars.

Yep I was talking about avatars, (my internet has been cutting in and out so everything is loading slooooooooowly)

I still can't see bobalicious' avatar.

I cant see his or walkens

this is walkens one : hope that works cant see bobs one >_>

Yeah, mine has gone away for some reason...

hi bob

I would expect that if people can't see it as an avatar, they won't be able to see it as an attachment, since they're both pointing to the same file on the same host. For some reason, other pages on that server take between a long time and forever to load. (I can't get http://www.fotolog.cl to load at all). The image is taller than 90 pixels, so it gets squashed down when displayed as an avatar.I have no troble seeing Bobalicious' Family Guy image...or the Web site that it's hanging from (http://members.freewebs.com). Did you know that Bobalicious has a friend named Auveen?Ironically, JapanFan mentions the people in here avatar here, but her avatar is not visible, at least to me. I wonder if she remembered to put the image on a Web host, to the extent that seeing what her friends look like will help to answer her question.

Yea, Japanfan Didnt put hers on a hosting place (like photobucket)

ye steve, i thought about that too after i posted it

photobucketOr imageshack.usIf she pointed to an image on her own computer, then it's only visible to her.

i do. i always make mine 90X90 the size it says to use. lol

And it's less than 5 kilobytes. Very good.
