Upping Avatar Size Limit

Could the avatar limit be bumped up to something like 16K or 32K? It may help the size problems people are having, due to the sector sizes, etc.

Plus, I want to have those badgers as my avatar. Gotta love those badgers.

I was having problems when trying to upload a new avatar recently too. Because my new avatar would need 8k allocated on the disk (even though it was black and white!), I couldnt upload.

I'm all for it. Because my avatar would always have a cluster of 8kb allocated on the disk, I couldnt upload a new avatar with this OS. It kinda sux0rs, cause my avatar was small and its just the fricken allocation.
Furthermore, I think Flash avatars would rule. Tell me if that's just me though

I'm making out alright, but the more the merrier.

I wonder how much space it would take up though.

This current system is lame. I cant even upload a 6kb CS gif I made. And its only 48x48!

Criminy!

i just changed it to 9kb, but I doubt that'll help much.

I haven't had any trouble uploading files myself. Just put them on my webserver and link the avatar upload thinger to it.

I cannot upload an avatar that is exactly 1251 bytes. Isn't this a little ridiculous?

by **mlepage** » Sep 26, 2003 @ 8:24pm

OK I managed to do it using the URL style of uploading, from another machine.

by **sponge** » Sep 26, 2003 @ 11:18pm

Yea, I'm noticing uploading from your machine doesn't work too often.

It took three months to finally upload my avatar. This site is too picky when it comes to avatars. But, even through all the trouble it was worth it, I mean, look, my avatar is gandhi!
