Avatar Sizes

Was just doing some mockups in photoshop for the new skin, and was putting the avatar on top of each post kinda like how VB3 has it, looks pretty cool, but avatars then will allowed to be a max of 64x64px which is by all means fine with me, but I know you guys are icon whores so your going to want bigger ones :P.

So please let me know yalls thoughts before I go any further with this.

Thats what she said.

#208235

I perfer the smaller ones mainly due to them not being as distracting.

#208243

big IS better... :)

#208245

Ignore the design, but in terms of the postbit layout I was talking about.

#208257

wow

I wouldnt mind having to have a 64x64 avatar if it was for that design :o :woot:

#208262

128X128 the best, 64x64 is too small.

/aviel

#208264

96x96 would be a compromise - but 64 is too small.

#208268

If thats the sort of layout you're thinking of, change my vote to 64x64.

#208281

Well I prefer 100x100. but I accept the rules of the forum ;)

Me niether !!!!!!

#208293

I was going to say 128x128, but I wouldn't mind if that is the layout, though.

#208479

I have small avatars so I dont care either way.

#208480

Whoa-- just saw that mockup :artist: . Change my vote to 64x64 too!

#208490

Small avatars all the way. Dunno what it is, the 128px ones are just annoying imo.

:rolleyes:

Timan, your design wastes a lot of vertical pixel space, while gaining less

horizontal pixels, if this is to be the header to every post in a thread.

I'd even trade width for height in a new design; see how I'm breaking the lines

in this post to make it more readable - on a 1600x1200 display this sentence

would sprawl over the entire desktop if my browser was maximized. Maybe

considering an automatic break to the width of the add reply box would add

readability but not huge Longhornesque titlebars, IMHO.

my $0.02.
