Automatically resizing pictures to fit avatars?

[budatalk]

Hi,

I have been wondering if such a mod has been done earlier. As you know, you set the specs and limits of the avatars to a certain dimension and size.

Sometimes people find a nice picture online to put as avatar, but they are not really bothered at copying/pasting on adobe or paint, and modify the dimensions and size. So I was thinking, why can't they just upload, or link a picture, and the forum automatically resizes it to fit the accepted limits. Something like Google images' thumbnails system.

Has it ever been done? I would love to know, thanks!
