Hmmm... I knew someone would ask.

I'm still sorting stuff with the site at the mo, so I cant have loads of people uploading on to the site yet. I might include this feature in the future, I haven't decided yet. Until then if you suggest an avatar Damien or I will upload it for you!

Yeah, just post it up here, or PM me and I'll whack it in the random avatar folder.

well, with custom avs and 100x100 limit, you could have a 60x60 if you wanted to.

unless you mean ANY SIZE, so that someone could pop up with a 329403x23490 avatar

A 100x100 image size limit seems reasonable. And a file size limit too (like, 10 ko ?) would probably be a good idea.

I personally don't like the look of 100x100 avatars in forums.

Stealing Little Char's icon would be mean

And Check! 60x60, 100x100 looks too big on forums

i don't mind either way. 100x100 would be nice, but then again i hate hkk's bitching, so it balances out.

also, one of the things about sg is its extremely large avatar selection, and granting custom avatars (and of a different size, even) seems to make it all go to waste. trivial, yes, but still.

Agreed Check!

100x100 avatars dont look that bad, but 60 x 60 looks better. (also the rank bars look better with 60x60)

Its a difference of opion that will never be agreed upon. Some forums have avatars that are something like 100x60 as standard , none of that here . And as for custom avatars, as I said before at the moment no, but if you send it to damien or I we will most likely upload it (unless its some crazy animated gif or something!)

Idea: Should we create a avatar suggestion thread?

I know, I don't understand the widescreen 150x40 (or whatever that is) avatar size either... but if I was to create an official size, I'd rather it just be 100x100 only (nothing larger, nothing smaller). Just so it'd look uniform with the website.

That'd only really apply if we were starting the avatar gallery from scratch.

Hmm... Id have to remake the rankbars again if I done this (which is not going to happen).

Besides...

I think I'll lock this topic as the discussion isn't going to go anywhere really.
Other suggestions are welcome though
