I've got a solution to this avatar issue... crop out the ugly dude, and keep more hot chick.
I came to this world with nothing
and I leave with nothing but love,
everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

^ :finger: :wanker:

It was supposed to be about me and my avatar! >:(

 :thumbdn:

And how the fuck is a discussion about the resizing of avatars NOT about your fucking avatar?  :finger: :finger: :finger:


I don't know, maybe re-proportioning or re-sizing is not really an issue, with some avatars.



I don't have an issue. The thread was supposed to be about the hotness of my avatar, or something like that. I never complained about the odd resizing. I doubt I'll keep that image for long anyway. I was just trying to be a whiny little attention seeking whore-bitch. I've been called a drama queen by some of those close to me, but it's all an act. Shhh! Don't tell! Okay, that's all! Just having fun. If you think there is an issue with the resizing, which definitely occurred on my picture, then by all means figure it out. If it were my board, I would likely obsess over such things, as I like little technical challenges.

I'll step down now...

 :soapbox:


Carry on!

Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems

I think it will maintain the aspect ration but add scroll bars. Better just upload the avatar.

Yeah, I had to do that with my animated avatars, even though they weren't bigger than 100x100. I don't know what the old values were, but I'm thinking it was also based on file size perhaps?

I don't see why the file size on linked images should matter. :-\

Me either, but I didn't have anything else to base it on. What were the old values for triggering the resize?

150x150. I didn't change anything.

Well see, there has to be some other problem. For starters, both my animated avatars were under 150x150px (100x100 and 96x96). Second, Triggers avatar isnt being resized properly, 170x127 is being scaled down to 142x191. It's not maintaining aspect ratio and is even resizing the vertical beyond 150.

So yeah, there is something definitely up with images that arent hosted here, except when used in a message body. Shows it screwed up on the left of someones message and at the top of each page. I think it also gets messed up in a users control panel as well.

Obviously uploading the image to here will fix it, but only mask the actual problem, what ever that may be.

This is why I posted it the way I did - to demonstrate this, since his avatar is a prime example of what you and Odeon were talking about earlier.

I was totally kidding about anything to do with my avatar. I stole it fair and square, it's mine, I manipulated it, it works, I like it and I do not want to talk about it.

She is so hot. Fiona has good taste in her women.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Trigger's got an issue. Now, if he only could make a coherent post about it, for a change.

Not sure what the issue could be.

I think there's a thread about my avatar, to be honest, though. OK, now I'm pissed. Why are we not talking about my avatar.

I have an issue, I think.

What kind of issue? :-\
