bigger avatars?

[whatsername104]

YES! i think you should do tht Diego. i've had tons of trouble getting avatars to fit the sizes for the new limits. i think that if we had the old ones though, it would be better. just my two cents

[Locomotion]

k already fixed it

[whatsername104]

Yay! awesome. thanks Diego

[kerrie]

I dunno if itll still work though cause its 27,000 D:

[Locomotion]

the file size is even increased compared to the old forum, before we had a cap of 13144 bytes now its 20000

 

My suggestion is to use paint, yes paint works magic when compressing file size, open the avatar in paint and save as a JPG.

It works for me, somtimes i have 900kb pics and after saving them on paint they reduce to 300kbish

[whatsername104]

thats huge!! there are ways to fix that though. if you have the original pic, open it with a photo shop type program, and then crop it yourself, it usually is less. that's what i did, because when someone made me one, it was too big.

[Locomotion]

yes but you need photoshop =P

not everyone has it, oh but i think i sent you photoshop right kerrie?

if not use the paint trick =)

[whatsername104]

you can also crop with paint. just, it's not called crop. and it's a little harder to do, to get the size you want, but it still works.

[Locomotion]

oh wow i never tried that

i had no idea you could do that =)

[whatsername104]

yea. you just resize with the little arrow thingy. you're basically resizing the picture. you can also use the little cut tool thingy, to cut out the part you want. i haven't mastered it, but i know you can do it.

[kerrie]

but jpg just messes up the whole picture. makes it all blurry and looses its "color"

and no I dont have PS, even if I did I wouldn't know how to change it without screwing it up. sorry but Im picky with quality :\

[kerrie]

i tired loading the png one again and it wont work still...I dunno how chris did it the first time.

[whatsername104]

if you want to send me the original, and tell me what you want for the ava, i can try. or you can upload it to photobucket. or you can send it to me and i can do it for you.

[kerrie]

I posted it on the other page but here

[whatsername104]

is the original the one in your sig?

 

 

i got it to 21.0 but if i get it any smaller you won't be able to see. try to see if it will work.

[kerrie]

file size too large ):

diego is there a way you can make the byte size higher...

[XxSanctuaryxX]

yeah when i try to resize my avatar or change the filetype the colours go all spazzy and it pixolates. cant we increase the byte size for the avatars? like some small gifs or something..

[Locomotion]

^ no , at least not right now

you see the problem here was the file type; i used paint changed to jpg and the

 

[kerrie]

yeah but the quality's not the same its all fuzzy.

[XxSanctuaryxX]

yeah its true..it goes pixelated too

[yOU x wIn x3]

I can't get this avatar to work:

I don't have Paint on my computer...could somebody resize it for me?

[XParamoreFanX]

[Locomotion]

[yOU x wIn x3]

[Mia of the [Dead]]
