Ellion Brek Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I would like to have a bigger avatar on topics. Something like 250x250 pixels. Is there a way to make the avatar bigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikestart Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 ACP > Customisation > Theme > Edit HTML and CSS Search for ".ipsUserPhoto_large img, img.ipsUserPhoto_large, .ipsUserPhoto_large:after" Open the file and find that line of text. Change the width and height, and the border-radius as desired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikestart Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 ACP - Members - Groups - Social - Maximum profile photo image size This won't make the avatars bigger in the topics display. It only changes the maximum dimensions of the image file itself, however, CSS in the topics display limits the size of the photo. For instance, the default value for the setting you mentioned is 150x150, however avatars are only 90x90 in posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikestart Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I was just getting ready to edit my post... System - Posting - Maximum image size Again, no That would be the maximum size of images in the post content itself, not the personal photo.

Woodsman Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Here we will have to do some digging in the css files to find the max size....and the bad news is I need to rebuild my Wamp local.. last upgrade destroyed it.... Good thing I have all my backups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change the width and height, and the border-radius as desired Thanks! I found it on: ACP > Customisation > Theme > Edit HTML and CSS > CSS > misc.css The default value is 90x90 (radius 45). I tried 180x180 (radius 90) and it was a nice size, but the images seems stretched (even the original size of avatars before the 4.0 upgrade was 290x300px). Didnt like, so i choose the default value. Maybe if i upload again it wont stretched, but can ask for all members to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikestart Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Yeah, but if you want to have avatars bigger than 150x150, remember to change the max avatar dimensions for each group like @Woodsman said, so that new avatars don't get stretched. ACP > Members > Groups > Social > Maximum profile photo image size Ratio is also important, so if the original file dimensions of avatars are 290x300, then the avatars in topics should be 180x186 to avoid stretching It might be easier to have original avatars be 300x300.

ABGenc Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Meaning there is no setting like "Show users full photo in topic view; maximum width " as we had in 3.4.7 ?In 3.4.7 I had played with CSS files till I found this and it had affected quick profile views ( mouse hover profile view ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Meaning there is no setting like "Show users full photo in topic view; maximum width " as we had in 3.4.7 ?What would you want to achieve with this setting? Higher resolution? Certain aspect ratios? Something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABGenc Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 What would you want to achieve with this setting? Higher resolution? Certain aspect ratios? Something else?In 3.4.7 I used it to have bigger avatars cause forum I moved from ( SMF ) had larger ones and default on 3.4.7 was small accordingly.

opentype Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 You certainly can have larger images. You don’t need that special setting for that. You can control the physical image size as well as the display size (CSS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway that may be against IPS' will to simplify the software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway that may be against IPS' will to simplify the software.The display size of the avatar images is a theme setting, not a system image upload setting. That’s why it works this way. In 4.0, CSS settings can easily be turned into user theme settings – just as the round or square avatar option. So I guess an option for avatar size could actually be easy to achieve, if IPS or a theme designers thinks that is useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
