Yeah, I tried that with paint(changing the pixels) but when I typed 50 into one field, the other one automatically put in a number and I couldn’t change it so I resized it manually but I made it a little too small.
This is a test. This post is a test, specifically. OK, this post is a test post to see if my avatar shows up.
You could uncheck “maintain aspect ratio” but then your pic will be all stretched out.
Went for the obvious.
Love it. 
Good move, thanks! Now about those smilies… 
Specto, your avvie pic is not square so you’re losing a lot of width in order to keep height at 50–might want to find a squarer pic so it fits the size constraints better. Or crop the pic closer to your chin so it’s more square, then resize.
Thanks Smartie!
Thank you TubaDiva.
Awesome! Thank you! 
There goes the neighborhood.
Testing, 1, 2, 3…
ETA: thank you!
Cool!
Cheers. I shall avatar up soon
Not something I figure to use (I always liked Blackwolf better) (and lets see who guesses that obscure reference) but I can live with it.
I keep getting that you can’t have an image bigger than 50 x 50 pixels. Is that right?
Yep.
Yup. Pull whatever pic you want to use into any image manipulator, size the largest value to 50 and keep the aspect ratio and bob’s your uncle.
I’m guessing it might either be until we get a board update, or just as a test to see how it works out? (Standard message board is usually 100 x 100)
Either that or to appease the naysayers. But it’s a start, and around here, that’s really something!
Testing
Looks like you got all your questions answered!
