So, with all the wasted space over to my left (and the left of other posters too), I finally got around to thinking of this one.

The avatar maximum resolution was 80x80. To make people happy, I've upped it to 100x100. So have fun photoshopping new avatars to take advantage of the extra 3600 pixels that you can now use, photoshop kids!

File size is still capped at 25KB for that. If anyone's seriously running into that cap, let me know. In my testing, most jpegs were coming out in the 4-6K range per image, so 25 is pretty big on the overhead I think, but I'm not an insane photoshopper like some of you are :p.

ehh, it's not a huge increase. If you don't like it you can always just stick with your old avatar =D.

This is most excellent news! With larger avatars, our magnificent community of Gotwoot shall be one step closer to enlightenment!

@Terra: How in za warudo is that Dio (even with a color swap)?

At any rate, behold ABOBO, a stalwart mid-boss that shall serve as my avatar till something better comes along.

It's easier to see that it's him in the full image actually. Sexy sexy! I love the new haircolor!

Oh and Abobo rules :D

Ho... It's a good thing you keep things moving, Complich8.

The bad thing is of course that now I need to edit a new avatar... Well, I suppose that's something that was long overdue anyway.

Hey, thanks for the increase, also Terra, I thought there was some sort of reason you were all the same color....then again defying the laws of colors one step at a time.

I AM TERRA. Laws of color does not affect me. Nor does any other law, for I am abstract and an entity whom in exchange for giving you countless posts of hilarity deserve to be a dork and use different colors.

Thinketh thou art so great?

Just wait until the moving .gif avatar upgrade; then I'll defeat your disregard for color with my full-body, thrusting-motion Dio Brando!

That's never happening. Not while I'm here, at any rate.

Change is inevitable; it's all about time and patience.
