  • Larger avatars?

    Sasq, could the avatars be a bit larger nowadays? Not in size, just dimensions, say something like 90x90. I don't think it would clutter the layout...

    Also...why does Gurms avatar is 90x90 in 30KB?

      Because I pre-approved it, and uploaded it manually.

      hrm now there is an idea, maybe donating members can get 90x90

          Personally, I like the smaller avatar size. I'm not a fan of "large" avatars on forums. tends to distract from where the actual focus should be.

            The actual focus should be... on the bouncing boobies.

              <----- Focus NOW!!!

              I'm good with the current size, besides I don't want to resize mine anyways, it never comes ou right.

                I'm struggling to see the need or use for larger avatars, in dimensions. Larger file size, maybe, but I agree with DGhost that smaller is better and less distracting.

                We already have signatures that take up more room than a post, do we really need avatars that do the same?

                  But if you look at the current layout, there's a still unused place "around" current 75x75 avatar, they could be slightly larger IMHO without harm. As for distractions...I think animated ones are more distracting than a bit larger static...so perhaps we'll limit size to 10KB? (mortal fear fell on Zokes )

                    I have enough trouble as it is at work now that for some reason we seem to think close-ups of heaving chests (where is implication is she is having sex) are acceptable for this forum. (And no, I don't want to turn Avs off).

                    Keep 'em small and use some taste - this is a forum with standards, standards that used to be higher.

                          Is mine still good or is it floating between acceptable and un-acceptable? I wouldn't want my av to cause any trouble for anyone.

                          I am the one who kinda started the whole bouncing fad, but I had mine WAY before the others though.

                            Uhm for the masters and slaves of ultimate boucniness.....could we not have a switch in our profiles to disable loading them?

                            I *am* a paying member, so I do think I am entitled to at least some enticing avatars.
