Hey guys I need your help on this. Some of you have avatar and signature pics that are a bit too large. How do you know if it's too big? For avatars, anything over 200 pixels wide is too wide, and anything over 400 pixels tall is too long. For sigs 400 pixels by 300 pixels would be the maximum. How can you tell what the dimensions are? If you are using Internet Explorer or Firefox you can simply right-click on an image, then select Properties and it will tell you its width and height.
I have updated the official rules and guidelines to include this info:
http://lakers.topbuzz.com/PNphpBB2-view ... -2666.html
These picture size guidelines are to help make the forum more readable so fellow members don't have to keep scrolling to the right (and too far down) to read forum posts.
If you need a smaller pic to replace your current ones don't forget to checkout the Lakers Picture gallery:
http://lakers.topbuzz.com/gallery/main.php
Thanks in advance for your cooperation guys and please let me know if you have any questions at all! |

Nice move.
BUT, you DON'T have to change your avatars/sigs. There are sites that can reduce the size of pictures.... |

| Good idea Dave! You know, it seems like pages on ltb are taken by huge avatars. Hopefully, your statement can change that. |

| Okay guys last call- avatars/signature links to pics that are too large will be automatically deleted in the next 30 minutes. If you don't mind then you don't have to do anything as the system will automatically delete the pic for you. Thanks! |
