The forum auto scales to a 90 pixel width, so you need to pixel pad it or resize the image and chop off some pixels.

Is it ok now? 90x120

I was silly, all I needed to do was paste my re-sized selection inside a 90x120 box :lol

Yep, it's OK. Put it in your CP and you should be good for 'quin to fix you up.

 

[Slayer-33]

Just did it, thx baby jebuses

 

[Nirolak]

There you go.

 

[Slayer-33]

There you go.

love you

Can my avatar please be switched back, pretty please? It's already been updated in my CP, and I think it conforms to everything.

 

[Gravijah]

What's the >=.75 part mean? Can't be less than .75 the size of 90x120?

 

[xxracerxx]

I believe this is the correct size/dimension as I used to use it back in the day. Will someone double check for me please?

 

[Yasae]

90x120, about 126kb. I don't see why not...

Spoiler

Is the poor thing making pizza dough or something? Did its paws get stuck?

 

[Clipper]

What's the >=.75 part mean? Can't be less than .75 the size of 90x120?

90/120=0.75. Anything with a width/height value which is greater than or equal to that ratio will scale to a height less than 120 pixels at 90 width.

Examples:
60x60 image: 60/60 = 1 so image is fine. Will scale to 90x90.
200x200 image: 200/200 = 1 so image is fine. Will scale to 90x90.
100x120 image: 100/120 = 0.8333... so image is fine. Will scale to 90x108.
120x160 image: 120/160 = 0.75 so image is fine. Will scale to 90x120.
89x120 image: 89/120 = 0.741666... so image is bad. Will scale to 90x122.

I believe this is the correct size/dimension as I used to use it back in the day. Will someone double check for me please?

Yes, it's fine.

The kitty is doing the laundry.

Yes, it's fine.

Thanks both of you for checking mine.

 

[xxracerxx]

Everything should be good on my end, looks like I missed out though.

You have to wait until one of the mods checks the thread.

hey your avatar lost its colors bro

makin' me sad over here

The width divided by the height has to be a number greater than or equal to 0.75, or otherwise the forum will resize it to something that's too tall.

I should remake that later so it's less confusing, though it's hard to find room for a lot of text there. :lol

Thank you, sir.

Thanks man.

 

[LaserBuddha]

I've completed step 3.

Let it shine.

Spoiler

Sure do wish someone could help me make it look as clean and background-free as the original though...

 

[Yoshichan]

I don't think you're allowed to have that avatar. It really fucks up with my brain.

 

[LaserBuddha]

It really fucks up with my brain.

How many fucks is your with brain?

...carry on.

 

[charlequin]

I'm not sure if it's clearly stated in the rules, but we don't allow flashing/strobing avatars (or GIFs in general) for both epilepsy and annoyance reasons.

 

[flintstryker]

flyntstryker, you're all set. jetjevons, something went wrong on your end. :lol try again to set the NIGHTS avatar in your User CP and I'll fix you up afterwards.



You're losing your avatar privileges for a bit because you didn't bother to check whether yours scaled up above the limit.

Clint is ever grateful!

Can anyone help with this one:

Thanks a lot :]]

 

[John Harker]

I suppose my dancing Turk avatar got the axe
My bad. It was an (awesome) gift. I've had it a year.

Is it fixable?

Not without an extreme loss of quality. That sucker is over 1,000 KBs.

I think you're stuck with that one! :lol Weren't you the first person to get that or am I crazy...

Cool! Thanks again

Nope. Sins against Wii Homebrew are punished by a greater god than I.

Umm yeah that flashy shit is not going to last and will possibly get you banned. Should just change it now.

Okey Dokey.

 

[Clipper]

He wasn't first. That goes to another poster who was already complaining earlier in this thread. He might have been the second, though; it was an early one.

I'll go with the same advice I gave the first guy (although he didn't seem to take it) and say to MarkMclovin that perhaps a politely worded, honest PM to Dragona apologising for your original actions and showing that you have learnt something from the experience might go a long way. I have no clue if it will help, but it can't hurt to try.

 

[totowhoa]

Nope. Sins against Wii Homebrew are punished by a greater god than I.

Why are people getting those anyway? Is that the penalty for asking a question not covered in the wiki or something, as the av/tag seem to plainly state? Seems rough :lol

 

[Clipper]

This was the best I could manage. Others might be able to do better by reducing image quality rather than dropping frames like I did...

Edit: I had another go with the second half of the dance:

Edit 2: Missed this post earlier:

Yeah, pretty much. It was asking a question that was very obviously answered in the Wiki when the thread title included "Check the Wiki first or suffer dire consequences."

 

[John Harker]

thank you!!

I'm back. get your groove on.

edit:
actually, it won't change back. Can a mod set this one for me?

 

[charlequin]

You're all set, John Harker.

 

[John Harker]

Why thankee-sai

Can someone help me resize this so I have an avatar. I hate being avatarless and don't want to get banhammered.

No need to resize it. It's a valid avatar even at that size.

You won't get banned for not having an avatar (as far as I know). But here you go.

 

[Clipper]

I think he was worried about getting banned for using a bad avatar (which wouldn't happen either, unless it was NSFW, but makes more sense).

 

[charlequin]

People have much more boobular avatars than that, so that wouldn't be a problem.

By the way, thank you for showing initiative and double-checking your avatar choice before getting a penalty avatar, Repairman_Jack7. :lol

I finally got my account activated after trolling for months. I'm just trying to stay on the righteous path.

Wasn't worried about content as much as size, glad I have everyones blessing. Thanks for the help.
