Problem Description:
How does the avatar resize? I see other boards where all of the avatars are the same size within the posts no matter what size pic you upload for your profile. That isn't the case on my board. If I set the value of the avatar size and the image is bigger I get an error message. But if I keep the value at 0 then the avatar is the original size in the posts.

How can I limit the avatar size within the posts (to make them all uniform) but not the original so users don't have to resize on their own?
What am I missing?

look in profile php for the line that says "let's validate the avatar" or something like that, and just comment out the section for checking the size.  It's not a perfect fix, but it works for the most part..

look for this

Code Select Expand


      // now let's validate the avatar
       $sizes = @getimagesize($member['userpic']);
       if ($sizes && (($sizes[0] > $userpic_width && $userpic_width != 0) || ($sizes[1] > $userpic_height && $userpic_height != 0)))
         fatal_error("$txt[yse227]  $userpic_width x $userpic_height)");


Make it say this:

Code Select Expand


      // now let's validate the avatar
      // $sizes = @getimagesize($member['userpic']);
      // if ($sizes && (($sizes[0] > $userpic_width && $userpic_width != 0) || ($sizes[1] > $userpic_height && $userpic_height != 0)))
      //   fatal_error("$txt[yse227]  $userpic_width x $userpic_height)");
