Turner: I don't know why it wasn't for you, but I just checked using several Styles (blue, green, black), and it is transparent in all of them, for me.

 

[Turner]

I think i figured it out. It's a PNG and on my 'main' desktop I'm still using IE6. On my SP3 IE8 box IE is rendering it transparent. Of course, FF is showing it transparent as well.

My apologies for that...

No bother, you had me worried there for a second though

Thanks though, for doing that. I do appreciate it!

 

[Abaddon]

Can someone please shrink this?

 

[Turner]

What's the limit on your avatar size again?

[Turner]

Meh....that's better than what I had going.

 

[civplayah]

Could I have my avatar a little spiced up? Not sure what I mean by that, but I want to keep the original design: the Full Moon Wolf. Could you also do a transparent version of the new one to see if I like it better?


Thanks.

I don't know if this has been mentioned on this pretty comprehensive thread, but Paint.NET is great for resizing images Especially transparent ones like mine.

Ah wait, never mind.

I tried shrinking this down to 80 x 80 but the file size, like, KB, or whatever that is (it's probably not "file size"), wasn't small enough (it was like 10, and I need it at 6).

It's for this forum.
80 x 80, 6 KB or under

I thought it had to be under 4 KB for this forum? Maybe that's old info, or just wrong. Anyway, here's your file:

I've made it under 4 KB but can do it at 6 if you prefer.

 

[Ansar]

I'm one of the few allowed to have a 80 x 80, 6 KB avatar

So yes, if you could, please make it to 6 KB (as far as I know, that makes the resolution seem better)

 

[Longus]

OK - Here's a larger version:

 

[Dachs]

Would anybody mind resizing (to 70x70 pixels, 4 KB) and rendering this image?

 

[philippe]

but unfortunaly size is too big. any clues on reducing size anyone? i get at 7k now.

EDIT: better one and it will work:
