    It can be bigger, Mine is 250x250 or 200x200 I don't remember. But certainly it has to be under 50kb, that message appears if you try to upload a larger one. It doesn't accept png images tho. I'm not sure about gifs and other formats.

    Ahh ok. so I'm officially retarded. lol.

    I tried a PNG 8 under 50kb and it didn't work. Maybe it was because of its size in pixels.

    ah I see it also uses a larger one when you click on someone avatar to see their details - larger one seems to be 192px x 192px, I might have to upload one that size next and delete my other its to small :)

    Yours is really small when I click on your name nicko.

    Uploading a mod is really cool too. You upload your pics direct and can either display them as a thumbnail or full size. If you chose thumbnail when you click on it it goes to a fancy photo viewer thing.

    Arial is good standard font anyways, that just about every mobile device or computer uses, so yeah I say stick with what works :)

    and nice to see this forum has mobile responsive templates another +1

    So who is going to change the font type for this text?

    Do you think we should be able to delete our own posts?
    I think edit and report is all we should have as members.
    Reason is say someone logs in blows off about someone or something in a really bad way, they get a bunch of replies, then just delete their post and say I didn't say that.
    I think once a post has been published only a moderator should be able to delete it, your thoughts?

    When it comes to double-posts that alright. Anyways aren't (some) people going to quote anything bad you said when they are going to reply to it?​

    Test this out for me. You should only be able to edit and or delete your post for about 15min after creation. Check and old post and see if the option is still there

    Sounds like a good idea, especially if you found out you double or triple posted. Thanks IcyHot :)

    I think we all should have the "Edit" and "Report" opnions since sometimes you change your opnion when it´s too late etc. But maybe we shall be able to do this after some time/comments posted

    Well I am thinking the Edit and Delete links should be there for a specific amount of time frame so it seems, and makes sense to me. 15 minutes is ample time to reflect on what you just posted.
    Report link always displayed.

    Anyways all three are displaying all the time for me :) as a New Member.

    I agree with what Peter said. Edit and Report options can stay while the delete option can go after a specific time.
