What Size Is An Avatar?
« on: December 01, 2021, 09:34:20 pm »
I finally got around to trying to upload an avatar. I keep getting a "too large error." I have scaled down multiple times, last one at 100 x 97 pixels and keep getting the same error. I can't find specs for the correct size of an avatar. Anyone know?

Thanks,
Virgil

Hi Virgil, I had the same issue but then just looked at the dimensions of somebody else's avatar that was working and used that size...so 60x60.

Yes, it looks really nice Virgil! Do you have a forum gallery or picture of the other side?

Hi Steve,
I don't have a gallery, I have it on my to-do list to start one, but my photography skills are lacking with the macro stuff. And my collection is pretty modest compared to most here. I did post it in the Coin of the Day under Forum Purchase of the day. It is at the end of the thread as I posted it a day or two ago. The photo is the Forum photo. If I can figure out how to take pictures like that, I would be thrilled.

Hi Virgil, just found it. Thanks. Love it! Super coin. 

My photography setup, currently, is a phone and/or scanner. It used to be somewhat better years ago, a copy stand and basic camera, but that got put to one side (and eventually lost) as I went all in on literature. At some point I need to start again. Some of the photography I see here in member galleries is both amazing and inspiring One day....

I asked Sorin to add text that identifies the limit on the form to add the avatar.
