I've decided to relax the image-size constraints that I placed on avatars, many years ago when people using dial-up internet were not uncommon. But nowadays, I figured it'd be nice to have them be large enough, that if you wish to share your true portrait, people can see it well enough that they can actually recognize you in real life.
And so... as of today, you can now upload images as big as 240x240 pixels. Avatars will still appear as 60x60 pixels, until they are clicked. Then they'll be enlarged so you can see the "Full Grown" picture. This was done so existing page layouts are not disrupted. Existing 60px avatars are going to look pixelated when blown up, so to fix that, simply upload a new, larger avatar through your Member Profile.
Webb and I have new avatars already, and we're the guinea pigs on this new feature, so click on one of our avatars to try it out.
Cheers,
Mike | |

At least one person mentioned that to me, but I believe it was a transient issue. | |

Note that taglines are included in the callout, but only if you have one. You can add one on your User Profile, if you like.
Enjoy!

Ate 5 boxes of thin mints, still not feeling thin. | |

I have to ask about your avatar's tagline. My neighbors have dogs that bark their heads off every time I go outside. I would love to know your secret for launching them! | |
