Avater have to be bigger

i think that the avatar pictures could be bigger about 425x425 maybe or 325x325 plz reply big_smile :-P

The point of an avatar is to simply serve as an icon for the forum member; it's not supposed to be large. Large pics may also frustrate some people and possibly force a thread to be "pushed aside" - people don't like scrolling horizontally while viewing the thread.

I think a max should be 300x300. A site I go to has that size limitation and it's suitable for a wide range of pictures, while not being too large at the same time.

y do u keep being mean to me???

no he has a valid point dark. I have found that when people post a long ways horizontal then it is REALLY annoying having to scroll. an increase on avy size would be nice though. 300x300 might be a bit large, more like 225x225 seems better

I think even 200 is a bit large if it is an avatar. Maybe 150 or something if the size limit should be changed, but I'm happy with how it is.

Actually, I think that avatars are pretty fine right now. No changes required.

I agree. Most forums I visit only let you have them 100x100.... I don't believe there's a need for them to be larger.

Disagreeing with you isn't the same as being mean. You should really be more open to other views.

see what i mean i always post rubbish stuff without knowing

Well it helps if you read the forum rules so you won't run into these kinds of problems. Also, everyone makes blunders. Don't feel bad about making mistakes - you don't say "rubbish" stuff.

No, avatar sizes will not be increased. It makes threads look bad when they are too big.
