I’ve never seen that man before in my life!
That’s Bilbo Baggins. Just before he disappeared, he gave Bag End to that worthless nephew of his.
Alfred E. Neuman?
Quasimodo lives.
But Snowboarder Bo has you beat-his looks like one of those faceless pseudo human monstrosities that you might see in a John Carpenter movie.
Diane Arbus had a nightmare.
I like avatars too, it helps to notice specific people in long discussions at a glance.
Although I wonder what I’m doing wrong, Guinastasia and John Mace are guests like I am and the avatar I did set, with the right size and format, is not showing.
I had that problem, too. I just kept trying different pics until one finally worked.
I think I found one reason, while I have seen the limit to be set at 125 pixels by 125, the avatar field is replying that it should be 50 x 50 as a maximum.
Another thing: One’s avatar is not one’s Profile picture. There was a script that we used before that looks like it used the profile picture as the avatar but that is not the case now. I can see that your profile picture is indeed not like your avatar one.
I’m editing my avatar to the right specs now.
Yes, and there is also a limit to the image file size. I don’t remember what it is but it tells you when you’re in the process of uploading.
Mine works better in the 80X80 and 100X100 versions I use elsewhere, but…yes, this allows it to translate OK down to 50X50 - mostly unshaded linework with a few splashes of colour. (The 100X100 version should be visible in my profile.)
All dog avatars are the best avatars.
I’ve got a hippo drawing you might have tried, but it just looks like a black blob when reduced that small. I agree with those saying you need lots of contrast and simple lines for it to work as an avatar. I can’t even begin to think of where to look for a suitable blob. The hippo blob isn’t right. I need blobbishness with a bit of pizzazz.
I’ll bet it’s fine, and you’re just being hippo critical.
(Sorry, gotta run… teaching a class at the Hippo Campus, and I’ve got hippo crates of papers to grade)
Yours is perfect.
At anyone/everyone: Does mine work?
Should I change mine? I have a couple cutesy cat ones resized. I really like the Warhol thing but it looks better bigger.??? Don’t know what to do.~¿
Thanks
@Beckdawrek: It looks like an Andy Warhol of a Chinchilla.
Huh, that’s weird. Well, I don’t know how to fix it and don’t feel like messing around with it anymore, so guess I’ll be Jessica Fletcher on my profile and an evil clown in threads. The evil clown lava lamp was actually the one that committed all the murders and why Jessica was able to solve them so easily. But shh! Don’t tell anyone, it’s a secret!
I might could live with that. It’s actually my face in profile.
