Turok The Troll Hunter Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Hello, I am new to HG and to forums as well. I was wanting to add a picture of myself to my profile, or create an avatar that shows up when I post, but I am having trouble finding out how to do this. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Also the image you want for the avatar/profile pic can't be bigger that 200x200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma# Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Also the image you want for the avatar/profile pic can't be bigger that 200x200 True, but that only applies to animated GIF files. If you attempt to upload a large picture, it will either throw back an error stating you uploaded a file exceeding the dimensions or it will scale it down for you. The reason why GIFs shouldn't be scaled down by the software Vbulletin uses is because it doesn't deal with animated gifs correction and turns them into non-animated images.
