Uniform avatar dimensions

[Jawelin]

Hi. I installed most of avatar-related hacks and uploaded many many avatars (categorized) to my board.
Most of them are animated gif, very nice.
Well, now I would make them displayed uniformly, i.e. some are larger than others.
I saw the 50 pixel affects only the uploaded avatar dimension, but I would resize all the images larger than 50px to that limit, without deforming them

Is there any hack or other way to limit everywhere the size of those avatars ?

Thanks a lot.

I though to modify the avatar-related templates calculating in the calling phps the scaled dimensions to my limits.
Does anybody have a trick or at least could tell me if it's a comprehensive method ?
Thnx

Use getimagesize():
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.getimagesize.php

Yes, thanks. Of course.
As the dim check is done everywhere in vb code

PHP Code:

        if ($imginfo=@getimagesize($filename)) {
          if ($imginfo[0]>$avatarmaxdimension or $imginfo[1]>$avatarmaxdimension) {
... etc.... (using the first two array elements as X and Y dims) 


I would know if I should make the rescale everywhere in code (I found about 14 templates and many phps) or - in a cleaner way - create a function for the whole "< img src = .... width= height= >" string and put that variable into templates and admin php code (which doesn't use templates...) ?

Or, at least, resize by hand all my avatars with PhotoShop or similar, as the uploaded custom avatars have the dimension size limit at code level ???
:stupid:


P.S.: do you know why uploaded avatars aren't deleted in my server's temp dir ? (Linux, safe mode)

Thanks

Add a check in getpostbit() that checks, if the user is using an avatar from your stock, the site of the image, then $imageinfo[3] in the <img> tag.

Because I'm nice (read: bored ), find this in functions.php:

		if ($post[avatarid]!=0) {
			$avatarurl=$post[avatarpath];
		} else {

and replace that with this:

		if ($post[avatarid]!=0) {
			$avatarurl=$post[avatarpath];
			$imginfo = getimagesize('/path/to/your/images/folder/' . $avatarurl);
			if ($imginfo[0]>50) {
				$moreimgtag = 'width="50"';
			}
			if ($imginfo[1]>50) {
				$moreimgtag .= 'height="50"';
			}
		} else {
			$moreimgtag = '';

and now add $moreimgtag to your postbit_avatar template.

You're absolutely right ! .... Nice
(couldn't say 'bored', my side...)

Thanks

P.S. 1: of course, you wouldn't get upset if I'd rescale proportionally sizes and post here my solution ?

P.S. 2: I should make the same-kind replacement also in announcement, private and elsewhere used avatars...

Thanks again.

P.S. 1, no I don't mind, and I'd love if you could post this.

P.S. 2, that's correct.

BTW did you even test my code? I don't think it'll work right away anyway...
