Is your avatar a bunch of crappy text? The thread to fix that lives again!

I have had my avatar for a while, I don't know why I got it or which pm gave it to me since I didn't get a warning. By looking at it I can guess I probably had a large boobed avatar before but I have seen far worse people using others. Its cool if I can't get mine changed would just like to know if I can.
 
So Red, I had my Archer avatar a while and could've sworn it was within the guidelines. Do I need to run a new one by you before I change it or can I just go ahead and do it?

edit: Oh wait, I see why it was dodgy. The width was 85 and got stretched to 90, making it go from 120 to 125 in height. Whoops.

Edit2: So this new one I just made looks okay.

How's this? It's exactly how it will look in your avatar and there's no scaling from your original image. I was able to crop it instead of scale it this time as those scenes had some empty space.

Please rehost it if you want to use it. I will likely delete the image some time in the future.

Awesome. Cheers mate :)


Edit: How long am I stuck with my mod made avatar?

We can try..post what you'd like to use and I'll undo it, but whoever gave you that one might plop it back on. But we can always give it a shot.

Yeah, y'all are good now! Thank you! :)

edit- focking wow, that's huge. sorry.
I already did that one a few pages back.

Edit: Seeing as your new source image is much better quality than the last, here's a new one anyway:

Edit 2: And one without cropping of the signature area if you really wanted that part too:

I was certain that my avatar was kosher... I ask Red Scarlet to please delete my given avatar I prefer to do without any avatar for the moment.

Thank you.

THANK YOU! So very thankful, and my apologies for not seeing what you had already done. I had to search for this thread again. =\ Thanks again, you badass :D

Thank you.

It was a few pixels not wide enough, so it stretched the height to go over. Just post something or ask for the old one to be fixed and we are good!

Av is fixed now Luna, but you might want to delete the big one...iirc if an imageshack picture turns into a frog thing it is bannable. :(

Here's a fixed version if you want it:

Or if you're dead set on not having no avatar, you can go with one of the ones I made for somebody else with a similar problem...The Emperor's New Avatar
 
Ok, I resized mine to 90x120. I didn't know it stretched em to 90. Think it was like 85x120 before so it put it over limit.

Thanks Clipper for all your trouble, you're great! And thanks Red Scarlet for the explanation, because I was breaking my head trying to figur out whymy avatar was removed. I checked, it was 88x120 px so the forum stretched it to 90x123... damn hehehe! :D

Cheers for you guys.

Edit: I've already changed the url of my avatar to the fixed one.
 
Favor to ask GIF-GAF,

Can someone please crop this GIF for me so just Dwight and Micheal fit into the 90X120 frame and also the file size limit. My meager photoshop skills (and lack of software) prevent me from cropping animated GIF's.

Thanks in advance!

How's this?

I actually had to change the default comment that is added by GIMP (saving 8 bytes) to get it under size.

My avatar got removed, it was 80x120 pxls =(

Does the forum scale it or something? Here's the exact photo...

As mentioned in multiple places in this thread, including, but not limited to, the OP, three posts before your post and five posts before your post, yes, the forum scales to a width of 90 and then checks the height of your image.

Here's a fixed one via transparency:

wow, i had no idea that the forum stretched your avatar.

Mine has been fixed to a static, definite 90x120.

Can a mod please remove the written tag? thanks
 
This avatar got me banned with its 150.03 KB (153632 bytes), grabbed at OneEightZero's mass avatar dumping post @ Community thread. :-/
edit - OneEightZero removed it from server when he found out about my avatarban

I would appreciate if some kind admin could revert me back to my precious Lt. Epicboobs. :D

Thanks.
 
Thanks, all of y'all are good except Steve, you need to change the url in your user CP to a fixed one (current one is 80x120, which gets stretched to 90x130 or so).
 
I wasn't removing it to avoid blame. I didn't want anyone else using that one either, so I removed it. I don't want people's avatar's removed. Avatars are awesome. ^_^

Sorry it happened. Amazing what a mess .3kb can make. :lol

Are junior members allowed avatars? If so, could someone turn this into a compliant version?

I lack any sort of photoshop/mspaint skills


blast-corps.jpg
Yes you are, and that image is already compliant.
 
If you want to keep the transparent background you can use this

8xR3l.gif


it scales down to 90x101 and is within the size limit. I just cropped the sides a bit.
 
Umm, let me change my avatar back, please? My old one was given to me by another user who I lost an avatar bet too.

I'd like this for now.
 
The one you have is alright, I think the requested one (you just change it in the user cp thing) might be too big from the forum resize.

This was my avatar....

no idea what was wrong with it, it's 72x120 right?

10.5 kb..
Did you actually read any of the posts which explain the rules, or just scan them for the size restriction? They all clearly state that your avatar must be 120 pixels high or less after it has been stretched to 90 pixels wide. If you want to have a 72 pixels wide image, the height can be 96 pixels high at most.
