    Um...mine and a few other's avatar's have went from compressed from original image to being massive...


    Just reporting, it may be just a glitch...but if not...well my avatar is too big to leave as is and...I lack anything smaller :(

    Plus I MUST go to bed so no time for a replacement-BYE!

    No...that's not how it's fixed.

    WHat I did is I added personal txt to my profile and then my avatar fixed it's self...however removing the personal txtkilled it.

    Thus I reverted back to my old hypnos tyrant...



    What a bloody odd error!

    avatars should no longer appear publicly usable.

    Yeah, got tired of people adding 600kb large avatars. So now they are required to be uploaded on the server so we can keep them small and load times fast.

    True.

    The image re-sizer won't have to work. Causing pages to load a LOT faster. :)

    Yep.


    If you need to resize your avatar go here ---> http://www.shrinkpictures.com/
    and use the Custom size and resize to 95.

    Ensure to save the resulting image to your computer and upload to RomU.

    Should be safe to add avatars now without it getting deleted.
