Big arsed avatars

Postby jaikai » October 31st, 2007, 6:47 pm

G`day all, any chance to set the avatars smaller ? it`s a PITA working out what`s posted in the 1st 4 lines of text... worse when ppl put replies like "5500 rpm", all I see is "00 rpm".
:roll: Fucking whinge I know, but it really shits me...

Its a browser thing, not a forum thing.

Mine does it at work but not at home. Dunno why.

Seems to be based on your screen resolution.
the avatars on this site are quite small especially compared to many other sites.

While we're on the subject of size, I would like to see the allowable size of signatures increased. 50 pixels high is hard to deal with.

Our avatars are 120x120 max. AFF for example allows 150x150 for DMs.

I use firefox at home and at work, and if my windows aren't maximised at either home or work, the avatars dig into the message space. My resolution at home is 1024x768 on a small screen (15"?) while at work I have something like a 22" screen and 1600x1200 resolution. So for me, it's merely a matter of maximising my window.

I see what you mean, for anyone who doesnt understand grab the side of your browser window, and drag it inwards. The avatar chomps into the text. Never had it happen, and yeh its a browser/screen issue.

648x480?

Joking...my innernetz connection is on it's knees already! (but 150x150 Avatars would be cool....)

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.

I like 100 x 700 for Sig size! The Sig size on Perth E-Series is massive, we don't need something rediculous like that.

150 x 150 Avatars would also be cool!
