I like the bigger avatars.

Btw you mean the Blog? I see you keep calling it "vB Board Logger" which sounds like something completely different then a Blog. A blog is "Web log" not "Board Logger".

Its a template edit to change the size so I don't really have a preference myself.

I like the small version myself.. maybe something slightly larger though. Either way it really doesn't bother me.

And I agree about the Board Logger comment. It confuses me every time. :(

[Grover]

Yeah well... the bigger ones are really in your face showcased there when there's lots of Avatars on a tiny area. The tiny ones... I tend to find them too small sometimes... some Avatars are barely recognizable.

So maybe something in between?

Another thing that came to my mind is this : how will this overview (I mean the default vB Blog one) look when you use differently sized avatars on your website? I mean, I as an admin of my site use a BIGGER avatar compared to the rest of my members. Does my bigger avatar get resized to fit the alignment of all avatars? Or does it get displayed a fraction bigger indeed and messes it up the layout?

[Wayne Luke]

The HTML code shows the avatar as a 30 X 30 image regardless of its original size. Like I said above, its a simple template change to edit this.

That is why option (2) says 'Control Image Size'

Ah, good to know.

[Jose Amaral Rego]

Meh, that is not the point. You can template edit almost every image, but an option to control image(s) avatar and or profile picture to display on list is a prefer option.

You wouldn't necessarily have to go full-size. I use 100x100 avatars and changed those thumbs to 50x50 and they look better.

I'm sure most people here can figure it out but just in case, blog template and then find this...

<if condition="!is_browser('opera')">
img.blog_home_list_image
{
max-width:30px;
height:auto;
width:auto !important;
width:30px;
}
</if>

Just change 30 in both places to whatever size you want.

[Jose Amaral Rego]

Except that does not work for avartars that are smaller then 30x30? It should but both Internet Explorer and Firefox have not resize smaller images. I still rather control images by a setting then template edits. That is why option two has 'control image size ' and the second image does not display avatars full size, as member 'Bad Bunny' avatar falls below 30x30.

If an image is not shown, then it should have like what you see within Profile for 3.7
