    it is 'acceptable'. nothing more, nothing less. Surprised the new mods haven't taken advantage of the ginormous avatars they can now have yet though.

    I'm happy they aren't any bigger. I wish there was some limitation on signatures too, though there aren't too many that are awfully big. What would the point of bigger avatars be anyway? The forums are about textual content.

    I'm pretty sure this isn't the best place for this thread, but I can't really find think of anywhere else more appropriate, so I'll let it slide. THIS TIME. 5B2JU.gif

    The avatar size is fine. So you might have to resize your image. Boo hoo.

    We already talked about it in the suggestions thread. But now that we have this nice poll I don't think merging it with that one would go so well.

    Do you really think any one from Telltale team would like to read all pages of that thread?

    Practically no-one from the actual Telltale team visits the forum, save for the Support section, for obvious reasons. It's why us mods have to put a disclaimer in our signatures saying we're not actually a part of the team. You'd be surprised how many people don't actually read that though. The number of times I've gotten abuse from people who think I work there... (It's twice).

    I'm not gonna delete the thread just because you asked a question. If the responses get too off-topic, I might close it, but I won't delete it. I rarely delete threads, and if I do it's because they're spam. Or offensive. Got a couple of those after TWD Episode 5 came out. Not as many as you'd think, but still a couple.

    And just because mods can have bigger avatar images (which was news to me anyway) doesn't mean we HAVE to have bigger avatar images. I happen to quite like mine, thank you very much.

    this makes me sad.

    "II. Whoa, the Telltale Team posts here.
    Sometimes you'll see posts by people with italicized names and the tiny Telltale Games logos by their names; those are folks that work for Telltale. A few of these people are responsible for maintaining the website and forums, and so will be more visible in the community attempting to keep the forums a sane place, so listen to them!

    With Telltale folks meandering through the forums every day, there are a couple of things that you should keep in mind:
    We can speak for ourselves, and (often) do!    "

    *cry* i miss the old forums

    Where's the option that says the avatar is too big?

    Seriously, I want a teensy weensy avatar so that people have to zoom way in to be able to see it at all! WHERE CAN I GET THIS?????

    signatures

    We have signatures?

    EDIT: Right, so we DO have signatures, however, I have disabled them, most likely by default.

    EDIT2: Right, so now I can see why I disabled them in the first place.

    Yeah, 50x50 is kind of an outdated size limit.
    I'm personally in favor of 100x50 'widescreen' avatars, which would allow for a bit more expressiveness while having zero impact on the height of posts.

    Well, I remember more than a few times I tried to change my avatar the pics were too big and I was forced to resize them. Unfortunately, the quality was so reduced that the pic looked horrible and I had to give up on it. I think that 19.5 KB size is too small. I made a really cool gif and I wanted to use it as an avatar, but it wasn't accepted because my gif was 19.9 KB. I mean, seriously!? 0,4 KB!?

    The small size is to discourage complicated animated avatars. You'd be amazed at what people will try and get away with if given the chance.
