You can probably either change that or modify the template to make it a link to the full-sized version.

Nice to know this.. and where should the resize quality could be? I know is set to 75% and I would like to increase it

Doing a search of "75" in the forums folders shows me several options, but I'm guessing it's in function set_convert_options in the class_image.php file. (There are other functions which it could be, just do a search for "75" in that file.)

thank you :up:
well there are alot of other options but I changed all of the 75 to 100 to try and now the avatars on the friends mini looks great! I think itll be ok to leave the other functions to 100 right? my server is a vps for now but is a new site, not many members

<a href="http://www.irfanview.com/" target="_blank">http://www.irfanview.com/</a> << freeware does the batch processing.

Step you should take:
Change usergorups permissions so they can not upload lagee then 50x50 avatars
Download all avatar form the server.
Resize them using irfanview.
Make sure file names dont get changed.
Upload all avatars to server.

PS. I havent tried it ... so use above info your own risk

so there is no option that you can enable, that wont allow avatars that has a width greater then 50 X 50 ?

For posts (postbit) you can edit "$post[avwidth] $post[avheight] to width="50" height="50" But it will only change the size of avatar in posts.

thanks dude :P

You can set the size for the allowed avatars in the Usergroup Manager for each usergroup.

If big avatars has already been uploaded they don't get resized by editing usergroup manager.
