| We need a larger file size for avatars!
This was designed back in the days of dial up and 1 gig hard drives!
I think the time has come to look at the limitations imposed by such a tiny file requirement!

I think it's fine just the way it is.

I uncur!
Then you will all have to look at a larger PL avatar. Seince you don't want to look at PL at all, that could cause some problems.
What about our few, sad members that do have Dial up (#43 Fan, him61 at 1 of his houses.) Or EVDO that never stays connected?

I have better uses of my bandwidth than to see longer animations. Plenty of people have been able to do wonders with the current limitation... Consider it a challenge to get what you want under the file size limit.

Even a small increase would be nice.
The 64x64 and 10kb limit is very small for sure.
100x100 and 50kb is what i see a lot. | |

I am 100% against larger dimensions for avatars.. One of the things I hate the most are when forums have avatars that take up half the screen and sigs that are longer than the posts... Luckily TechIMO has avoided these so far. | |

Ugh 100x100 avatars are nothing short of gaudy.
I personally wish no animation was allowed and feel that 10kb is more than enough.
