Baby.Jude9 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 For some strange reason, my avatar remained through the update. Considering this "some-people-lost-their-avis-and-others-didn't" thing, I tried uploading nearly every animated avatar I have saved on my computer. For every one, even the one that I actually have in use, it said "Image size is too big", but still let me keep my avatar. It's was rather strange. I'm not sure if this in any way helps solve the situation, though.On a side note, yay for the new mobile version! It's fantastic and wayyyyy better than tFS's mobile site...

PinkCouture Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I was able to upload your avatar via direct upload. Would you mind trying one more thing for me? Could you upload your avatar to a host (like tinypic). Afterwards, I want you to remove your avatar and re-upload it using the host link.

Cult Icon Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I have a query: Is it possible to make the forum darker? I mean, from member's side? Like a darker background instead of bright white, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkCouture Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 ^ We will deal with skin options later. There are more crucial things we need to deal with now. A step at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJB Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I don't know if this has already been asked about, but what happened to the topic descriptions?Yeah, good question. Also, what happened to the emoticons in posts? They're all just squares with red x's now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played w/ that as well. That's how I was able to get my avatar to work. I didn't want to risk it by increasing the capacity too big.

maddog107 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Well we have 2.1TB space now, but the problem is obviously going to be bandwidth. I need to balance that, but for now lets just get it working then I will deal with it later when I get a giant bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog increased it to 5MB. He is The Boss, so if he says it is ok then it is ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, let us know.Can you? It downloads it to BZ, I didnt find the option to leave it on an external site. If I could then I would definitively reduce the size back to say 1.5mb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
