Rectangle avatar possible?

[devoetbalkantine]

Hey guys,

Is it possible to change the avatar settings so it's also optional to choose a rectangle avatar?

Example: We accept avatars of the size 80x80 pixels. If someone would like to use an avatar which is 80x40 in size, now it is automatically changed to fit 80x80.

    Mods installed, smf version, url?

I can't recreate this....   If the image is over the maximum defined site (admin > attachments and avatars > avatar settings) then it resizes the image down....  but it maintains the aspect ratio of the original in all of my tests.

Just set in Avatar settings javascript instaed of HTML. It helped me.

Hi devoetbalkantine, did you try using javascript instead of HTML resizing?
HTML has done some other strange stuff too in the past, like at one point it made images larger than they were when it was supposed to make them smaller.

I tried using the Javascript-option and that did the trick strangely enough.

HTML resizing will force all avatars to the maximum dimensions. The javascript option is better (and tbh I'm not sure why we provide the HTML option as IMO it's not worth having).
