Avatars

[Mike Bobbitt]

We're having some avatar issues at the moment... Still trying to track down the cause, but for now uploaded avatars aren't resized.

if you have photoshop, or similar program (I use MGI PhotoSuite) to resize.

open the picture in the program (Duh) and choose resize (again, duh) in the options menu.

it should give you an option to proportionally resize, choose yes, then change the horizontal field to 100 pixels.

Hope that helps.

Mike,

If possible could we have the Lorne Scots P,D&H Regt crest as an uploaded avatar..I know there are a few Lorne Scots reservists on the board.

I know its in the avatar gallery...but its HUGE and it gets marked with Army.ca

Mike,

I know you are still working on the problem of "down scaling" avatars that are uploaded to your site.... any word on when I can get my recent post - "Combat Diver 2" reduced to a more workable size?  I can't seem to reduce my image to a smaller (100 pixel) size?

I've reduced them all to a max dimension of 65px. I still hope to have the problem  addressed properly at some point as well.


Cheers
Mike

Thanks Mike.  Great site.  I'm a relatively new member and think you've done an excellent job!  To you and all your elves, keep up the great work!  Merry Christmas!

p.s. Christmas lights around the banner are a nice touch.

So mike Santa Claus?  well I guess Im the smallest moderator elf ;D

 

[Mike Bobbitt]

Ok, this issue has now been resolved. Thanks for your patience all.

If your avatars are currently too big, just re-upload them and they'll automatically be resized.

Thanks for the heads up... It's been fixed. Looks like the auto thumbnail generator doesn't like animaged gifs...

Just uploaded about 14 more.
If anyone is looking something specific (military graphic wise) give me a shout I might be able to hunt it down.

 

[Burrows]

Blakey...many of those are already available...please only upload what you need personally.
