Avtars

30 Dec 2003

Hi,
Is there no way forum users can have an avtar over 5k in size?
sad

30 Dec 2003

I was wondering that myself - I guess it must be server space or bandwidth considerations ?

Affraid not 307,
I am pretty nifty at reducing photo file sizes down if you have the picture you can email it to me and I'll work on it for you.
If it is an absolutly huge photo then I doubt the quality will be any good.
I have adobe Illustrator 10 and Ulead Gif animator which both handle pictures and sizes very well.
Upto you though.

reducing the picture size is no problem as i use photoshop 8 and paint shop pro 8.
I just wanted to put on an animated avtar you see.
But it is ok, thanks

That is very kind of you Mark. Cheers. I suppose a lot of the images from the people who post will be cached anyway so that will reduce load time.
It may get a little distractive to say the least with everybody having little moving pictures while you're trying to read. Oh well. They will bring some giggles I'm sure.
Now lets see if I can get my two little moles to move a little

The whole avatar thing has gone mad eh? I sat down trying to create one that would reflect who I am... na, hopeless!

30 Dec 2003

I spent ages pecking my way out of that eggshell, and then ages trying to fit myself into a little 100x100, only to find that Mark has upped the limit just as I celebrated my success :cry:
No offence Mark, it was good fun wink

With a name like Richard....how about a dick pic!
(Wilma ducks as the screams from jags deafen the cafe.)
Arggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh.............NO DICK PICS!!!

I get the feeling Mark has upped the size limit in terms of kb but not the 100 X 100 limit - thank goodness!
Otherwise we would have even more dick pics as Avatars! :doh:

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:
Although that could mean we get more animated gifs of the dreaded dick pics though! banghead

I WILL DELETE ANY POSTING WHICH FEATURES A DICK PIC... be warned people cos I mean it.

:banghead: mad

:x :banghead: :banghead:
Just half an hour trawling the ads section - for moderation purposes you understand - makes me sick sick sick of dick dick dicks. Not a man's most attractive feature, though in the case of Fred I'll be prepared to believe it!

Try a search on google images(tm Reese)

Hi I was looking at updating my avatar a few weeks ago. I had a real job trying to find anything that was usefull.
try doing a google search for "avatar" or "GIFs" along with "free" or "forum". Or do what I do search for a certain type of forum (like "computer forums) and then browse round and knick any that take your fancy. redface

ops:
OK It's not big and I'm not proud of myself for doing it, but it bluddy (tm Misschief 2004) works. lol

BTW what's the car in your avatar (it looks BMWish, but the back window looks too short), do you guys own it and did you build it? biggrin
