Title: Why are the profile pictures so fuzzy?
Post by: Fenris on March 22, 2023, 02:35:06 PM
No matter what resolution I start with, when I upload a profile image it becomes very fuzzy. Am I doing something wrong or is it the forum settings?

Subject of photo, perhaps.

No idea!

Good question. I've changed some settings, can you try uploading again (possibly with the image already at 140x140px) and we'll experiment further depending on the result?

A hearty welcome back to Avram, even if he is a bit on the fuzzy side yet.  :)

Pixels never lie. Mostly.

New error message:

The following errors occurred when trying to save your profile:
The avatar you have selected is either too large or not an avatar.

File size is 51 KB.

Okies it works now, maximum size 1MB. Try to hit 140x140px or else it'll resize and might look funky. 140px is the maximum width of the column that shows the username, avatar, etc.

Much better, now we can work with this. Thanks!
