Author Topic: Forum Avatar Uploading Guide  (Read 3607 times)

Due to a recent surge of new forumers having trouble uploading their avatar on the forums, this laconic guide was made to help nearly everyone with that problem in three images. It's just that short and simple.

The Guide






I'd leave that upload space as it was but it would be all Greek to you.
Also this would orignally be called "The Avatar Guide To End Most Avatar Guides"



Special Issues And Clarifications (should any be necessary)
  • Yup, the exact file size for avatars is only known to Badspot. What we know is that 2KB is definitely safe, it's more than 2KB, and some people say it approaches 90KB but some others have proven that wrong.
  • For now, that's about it.

Dang, I forgot there's no editing in Help. Oh well. I shouldn't need to add more except that you should redirect anyone having avatar trouble here.

I think the file size is just under 90KB, maybe even 100 KB im not too sure but I know its more than 10

Yeah, I took a look at cases like Yin Yang's and his image failed to upload at 25KB, unless I missed something. I'm putting the low value just to be sure until we can get more data.

that's a lot of personal messages you got there

theres a topic in off topic, people posted numbers over 1k. i personally have 925


my biggest tip after all these strategies that gets it to work every time is uploading to imgur, and redownloading, as it strips all meta-data
