Avatar size limit increased

I was feeling generous today, so I decided to increase the avatar size limit from 80 x 80 pixels to 100 x 100 pixels. So go nuts, everyone, and reupload your favorite picture to your profile in all of its new gigantic glory.

Ben, your avatar is still 80 x 80.

You went to all the trouble to get a new one and it's not even as big as it could be.

You need some kind of image editing program. The GIMP is free -- try that.

I'll give 'em a shot, I'll have to delete it after testing though cos if it's found on there then questions will be asked and I'll be in trouble...as you say, what my mum doesn't know wont hurt her.

What the hell?! It's free, useful, general-purpose software... who cares...

(Note that this is more directed at your mother than you...)

Well, that's pretty stupid. There was a time when she'd never heard of Microsoft. Now look at her.

My mum is pretty much the opposite - she knows so little about computers she just trusts my judgement on things . Though I guess if your mum saw a button labelled "GIMP" on your computer, some questions may be asked...

Technophobes shouldn't have computers.

'Least they'll all be dead soon. Old age ftw.

That or they'd be too scared to utilise any technology that could make their life any longer...

she's not afraid, just doesn't trust my judgement on software downloads...and she is not a technophobe...and I do not appreciate you saying that she is and that she'll be dead soon, she's got and getting me through some tough times and she's done a lot for me...she's always been there for me and always tries to understand what I'm going though and always worries when I am going through something bad...so the last thing I need is you telling that she'll be dead soon.

We'll all be dead eventually.

Unless we openly embrace technology.

I'm having a little trouble. I've got a new 100x100 avatar uploaded, but it keeps on resizing to 80x80. Grr!
