Short: Suggestion to change max avatar size from 80x80 to 64x100.

Any good reasons for that? And any objections or difficulties?
It`s hard to vote if you don`t have a clue whats it all about.

(Then, HELL, don't vote)
Well, strange you hadn't noticed: most of you with non-std avatars use avatars which have larger height than width. Square dimensions should trouble everyone who want to post such avatar in considerable size. At the other hand, the allowed length of file is too large for given dimensions which can cause greater frustration because space is there but you cannot use it.
I proposed 64x100 instead of 80x80 in first because it would not make trouble with standard avatars (all they are 64x64), and in second because that won't change the h x v (surface size) of image but it should allow better exploit of space.

Okay, you should have added the `I don`t give a rats ass` option in the poll

Sorry, that's out of my power now. I would ask someone higher to add the "don't care" option but... you just voted for "No"? Now I'm going to ask you for the reasons.

Bah, you can add poll options yourself. Or at least you should be able to.
But phpbb is a little buggy with this (it can fuck the poll up), so maybe Satis turned it off for normal users, although i don't think so.

I didn't turn of jack, far as I know. Anyway, I don't care. If we get enough yes votes, I'll make the change.

Heres a tip
If your avatar is off site......it can be bigger. The limit on size is only for uploading your picture.

@ Arathorn
That is what troubled me few times before. When I post poll, after a while, I'm unable to change it.
@ ?
Well thx for adding the third option.
@ ElevenBravo The Great
I think we both are overvoted.
@ J
Apologizes for my prev. tone.
@ Satis
I think "remote avatars" are good idea, but have on mind that then admins and moders could loose its privilegy to be only ones who see IPs, hosts, ... of users. If you disallow dynamic images, nr. of ppl who can cheat rapidly goes down.

Off topic here, but J (And satis will kick me for correcting someone) if you are saying 4th, then it works, (as with 5th, 6th, - 20th) but if you are using 1, 2, or 3 (with the exeption of the teen numbers) it is 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.
So 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th. And so on.
