Pretty sure that's Usergroup permissions.

You don't get in trouble here for posting a link to your board, in fact it helps diagnose issues.

Looking at postbit here: http://habbopodforum.com/showthread.php?t=993

It appears the avatars fit the postbit legacy template just fine.

If you reduce allowed avatar size in usergroup permissions, this counts only for new uploads - avatars which were uploaded before that change will not change.

I know of no way to force avatar size in postbit regardless of allowed setting - perhaps there is but i am not aware of it. Hopefully others will come along who might know.

The issue the site owner has is

the avatar is too big (we can try to do it via acp)
and that the forum is to "tight"...

Example i can see from the source code:<img title="Sian's Avatar" src="image.php?u=142&amp;dateline=1386517128" alt="Sian's Avatar" border="0" height="267" width="200">You can search that up in postbit_legacy template and make changes there.

However in USERGROUP PERMISSIONS what is the allowed avatar size setting?

So sorry, but what would I exactly edit?

In the code be looking for: height="267" width="200" that's what's defining the image dimensions. Which as i am tryna tell you, might be inherited from usergroup permissions.

I don't see height = 267 or anything to enter a size

I am not vb3 person, but he should be able to alter the template and add a class attribute to the image. He can then set a fixed width and height on the image from CSS ('additional.css').

Of course that would resize all avatars on modern browsers regardless of the picture orientation, that could be good or bad.

Or am I on the wrong track? :)

I'd have a look

Nope, I made them 80x80 and still have the same issue, I edited the USERGROUP

Also I'll reiterate - the existing avatar sizes will not change when you change allowed dimensions in usergroup permissions - only ones uploaded after the change will be 80x80.

And editing a single usergroup does not account for the others. You must edit avatar size allowed of all usergroups, to get consistency.
