Where or how are you guys seeing these? I get affected by large embedded pictures on my iPhone but I've never had problems with avatars on either my iPhone, Samsung tablet, Google pixel tablet, or laptop.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Rey, it doesn’t affect me much, but Dave’s ring starts out HUGE on my screen, then goes back to avatar sizes. It only happens when they are the thread starter, or at least that’s the only time I notice it.

If it didn’t go away right away, it would make browsing the thread really unenjoyable.

Not sure why they start out huge then resize.

They render at full size as the are cached locally to your device, then the board software code kicks in and presents them in the diminished format and renders them at 60x60 pixels.

No need to thank me, just take the blue pill and enjoy the world as you know it...

It see it when I have a really slow internet connection, say under 10mbps.

Brie? Brie? Would anyone like more brie?


Were you inconvenienced for less than a minute? Maybe take it up with Hellen W. in the complaint department? Smile

If this was the worst part of your day, be thankful....

Dave's opens then quickly goes to size. This one was rather strange, I opened the page then went to do things on the other screen. The whole time I did it was full size on the screen. I didn't even realize it was an avatar, I was puzzled why he'd posted the photo since it was unrelated to the thread, but I was busy on the other screen. Then I noticed the next was squished off to one side? I went back to it, scrolled it up and down a few times, then it finally shrunk down to avatar size and things went back to where they should be. Stay large for maybe a minute? Odd.
