Avatar picture distorted

[Cassiel]

I didn't have this problem before, I have tried several sizes and the smaller the worse. I don't like distortions and would like to know how to solve this problem.

May I also recommend a smiley with some class to your forum? The standard one looks like a simpleton with liver disease.
Here it is:

Resize to 80 pixels by 80 pixels before uploading. I find better results using an 8 bit gif.

BTW, your avatar looks fine now.

Hmm, mildly offensive to simpletons, particularly those with liver disease. I guess you speak out of your extensive experience of such, though?

Wow, no offence I hope. They would have a hard time comparing themselves with a smiley.

Thanks planet10.

You're funny wakibaki. I also love plants and animals.
