Koby Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I've did some custom editing of the templates to work around and allow users to have tall avatar / profile pictures. This seems like a popular feature on various other places I frequent so I've been excited to introduce it here. Currently works on Brave, but I'm working on implementing it to the other themes all themes . When you upload an image, it'll ask you to crop in a square. Have no fear, this 'crop' is only applied to the other various sections of the site such as 'last post info', etc. However on the left of posts in the post template, you'll see your full featured profile picture! Also it still works responsively, as if you're on a mobile, it'll switch to the cropped square version everyone has been accustomed to all this time. My current profile picture is just a test to ensure it was actually working as intended. Let me know what you think. Do you like this idea or do you hate it? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pollux Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 What would the dimension limit be with this feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moodkiller Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 With the longer size and ultimately bigger picture, are you going to/have you increased the maximum allowed file size? Anything between 250KB and 350KB should be fine, irrc its 150KB at the moment? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, the image I uploaded was 200x350 so it was resized to 143x250 to be within the 250x250 limit. 4 minutes ago, Moodkiller said: With the longer size and ultimately bigger picture, are you going to/have you increased the maximum allowed file size?

Koby Posted September 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 This modification was broken with the latest update which rendered hovercards and the links on the avatars broken, so it hasn't been re-added. Working on a solution and then we'll re-enable this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
