Raise Avatar Limits

I have an avatar I want to use but it is 10.1 kb, thus I can't upload it, and if I save it as GIF, it ruins the picture.

Can you raise the Avatar limits to like 30kb?

Even a small increase like that would be AWESOME! It means I would be able to add that supernova I wanted

This would be nice, since I had to go through so many pictures to find one that works lol

Save it in a different file format? jpeg usually keeps the quality and reduces the image size. Or you could open the image up in a editing program and click 'save for web' and adjust the quality there.

Meh, it may slow down forumify's servers, with all of the people that use this wiki. I think the limit is low for a reason (although most people have simple, non-animated, low-size avatars)

The limit we're using is just a default setting, lul.

Re: Raise Avatar Limits

So could we ask Chris to bump it up? That is, if he's the one who made the forum on the site.

Change it to custom:

Avatar size: 180x180
Maximum File Size: 32kb

At least that is it on another forum.

Re: Raise Avatar Limits

Should be noted that I have doubled the maximum avatar upload size. This number may change to what cyclone/others see fit, but 10 kb was really small.

I haven't changed the size, because cyclone purposely picked 90X90 back when I joined the forum(I made a request asking for an upgrade from the current 50X50)
