I've never had a problem with anyone's avatar or even noticed a difference ~ so what's the difference?  | |||

For people with limited bandwith (slow internet connections), it can make page loads last minutes, or just kill their connection. For those with phones on a limited data plan, it chews up their allowed monthly data unnecessarily. If the image is not horribly big, it's usually not too much of an issue. However, three of the four avatars I called out are egregiously large. They are about 800x larger than the allowed 60x60 dimensions for an avatar.

Nay. If I can’t, he shouldn’t. "I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||

I have avatars turned off so I don’t have to worry about this _______________________________________________ Use thumb-size bullets to create fist-size holes. | |||

This, if you are offshore or have limited speed/dial up options, when you are on cell phone simply go into your profile, preferences page and select the option to hide signatures/avatars. Yes I know you have a right to see all avatars in the proper size, but obviously that's not going to happen, so just turn them off when you are in a position that super large images cause problems as avatars | |||

A little off subject, but what is the recommended size for posting pictures? | |||

That was actually discussed in another thread months ago. I don't remember if a conclusion was reached. Do a search for it. Try "Image Size" as a search term. Loyalty Above All Else, Except Honor ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

You can’t go wrong with 640x480 or 800x600. That won’t blow out the page on most devices. Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well. -Epictetus | |||

60x60 on page 2 of thread and in the software of the board when you upload your image link. (also shown on page 2 | |||
