Is there a decent website that can take my jpeg and resize it so that it doesn't look so blurry when I link to it and make it my avatar?

on a serious note, gh reduces the quality of avatars and such to lessen the load of data and stuff (if i have heard correctly)

All I am looking to do is make a jpeg look like a jpeg, not some copy of a png-turned-into-gif blob of nonsense...

Oh so now you don't like gifs?

Our moderation team really likes to go after these relatively, stupid inconsequential and meaningless things instead of doing actual moderation.

Even profiles aren't properly regulated.

You can't have gifs that lag mobile browsers.

Or do you just like complaining?


Is there a decent website that can take my jpeg and resize it so that it doesn't look so blurry when I link to it and make it my avatar?

If the issue is that the source is too large, I'd recommend simply downloading, resizing, and uploading as your avatar.  The dimensions are 150x150.

I resize in imgur, but it always looks blurry on here when I use the link...

Try saving it as .png, it should help avoid compression on the forum.

It's because it is 153 pixels wide, GH only supports up to 150 so it's resizing it.

I wouldn't be complaining and having to point these out if you guys simply exercised more common sense and consistency and less discretionary moderation.

Good advice, but I'd rather use private healthcare and keep my teeth if it's all the same to you.

FWIW, most dental practises in the UK are privatised... But it seems like a good day for negative British stereotypes today ;)

Not much apparently, because most of your actors and tv hosts still have noticeably terrible teeth.
I'd apologize for being American but that's inherently unamerican so I will say you can call me a fat yankee **** if that makes you feel better :D

You're definitely right, I had to edit my post too because I realized I just apologized for being American and then I would take flak from other pundits.
Oh also! COOL I KNOW WHO ALL THESE PEOPLE ARE.

GH has a built in **** You feature (trademarked and copyrighted, of course) to maximise and increase efficiency in your, and other user's forum-ing abilities.

lol...thought that might be the case...
on a serious note, gh reduces the quality of avatars and such to lessen the load of data and stuff (if i have heard correctly)
