Yes, I went into Admin>Avatar settings but the size remains at the default. Yeah, I've cleared forum cache, too.

How come the avatar aren't getting any bigger?

Jakob Fel

What size do you have the default set to, and how big is your avatar?

I set it 300x300 just to see if it would change and it didn't. My avatar is bigger than the site is letting.

Jakob Fel

So you are saying that it doesn't resize, it just stays in the dimensions that the original image was in?

It doesn't resize at all. It stays small. The image could be however big, but it won't change if I upload it to the site. It will be stuck at a small 65x65 I think, even though I allow up to 300x300.

If your image is smaller than what the resize is, it won't be changed. The resize feature is for the avatars that are too big.

I know that...It's bigger. 300x300 is bigger than 65x65.



I could place any image in there however big and it will stay that scale.

Jakob Fel

Whoa, I'm confused. Which is 300x300? The avatar itself, or what the maximum dimensions for avatars are?

The maximum allowed dimensions. nevermind, I think I fixed it

Jakob Fel

And your avatar is bigger than 300x300? If so, it should resize it. If it isn't, the resize feature is useless. Only avatars bigger than 300x300 will be resized, but if not, it won't modify the size. From the looks of your avatar from the picture, it looks smaller than 300x300. Sorry if I haven't helped you, I am getting tired. :(
