Technically we can adjust the rules to this then? That would open some new possibilities for high quality animated gifs.
They work on the profile page. Just not in the threads.
Eh. Not quite sure that counts then.
Let's stick with the existing standards for the rest of this contest. I don't want to oblige anyone who already submitted to reformatting.
But what do we go with? I just started seeing this message a few hours ago today:
Which automatically appears in a green box around the top of the forum. Which sometimes appears with text, or sometimes just as an empty green box -- thank goodness for the new improved XenForo.
So, do we go with the new and improved itsy bitsy teeny weeny 96x96, or what ever slightly larger size avatars Premium Members get? I thought I read that larger avatar sizes would again require moving to a new server, but I guess PM's money somehow surpasses that.....
By the way, anybody noticed the error in avatar image size details? It's 96x96, but if you right-click and select Properties, it says 100x100.
I would guess people will find 200 by 200 avatars with potential for animation the most fun, as those are at least usable in profiles on Xenforo. But I'll be fine with it if this isn't my problem on the next round.
Well, it does say *file size*, which doesn't necessarily mean that the actual display size is going to be any different. Although I'm not really sure what that would gain you then, since they can't be animated.
(And I thought it was just that changing the default av size would have required modding the software, not moving to a different server? I could be misremembering though.)
Not sure what you mean by this. If I right-click someone's av and select "View Image Info", it says the image is 96 x 96.
Yeah, it's not really clear what file size is. But hey -- for just $25 a month you can have a slight increase. ;-)
If I right-click on any avatar and select Properties, it says 100x100. Using Windows.

Can this be from opening credits from a TV series?
It's be hard trying to come up with a film, 'cause so many good films don't have any iconic shots in the first frames.

I wasn't sure if opening credits counted, since it's on every episode of a series.
^Definitely #2.
Great entries, everyone. Entries are still open until the end of day tomorrow for anyone still interested.
Orac and Klaus, could you just clarify what yours are for me? Not, uh, not that I don't know, you understand... I just, um, want to be sure that you know, yeah, that's the ticket...
