Any chance of raising the limit on Avatar sizes? I got a couple that are dimensionally correct but I can't seem to squish them down enough on file sizes.
If it is a user bandwidth issue, could the default be NOT to show signatures/avatars? That way it is the user discretion to view or not view them?
If it is Hexus bandwidth issue, could the limit not be raised for offsite avatars?
I think the problem is how it affects the layout of the page rather than a bandwidth issue?
I think he means file size rather than dimension ;)
ROFL...yes file size I meant! What was I thinking of when I wrote physical???!! :laugh:
Would be nice to have offsite avatars :)
IIRC avatars are BLOB'd (ugh) into the database. Unless there's a better mechanism for storage I doubt I'll be increasing the size limit.
Leave it with me though and I'll look into it.
Oh yeah.... Surely the advanced vBulletin would allow off site urls by now.Quote:

Hexus is nice and fast, but other sites aren't, and if it's going to mess with load times etc. I think it would be bad :)
