O.P.  Maximum size of avatar?
Okey, I do not mean the dimensions, but the actually size, how many KBs that's allowed. It didn't say anything about that in the rules.
Thanks  |

Depends whether you are linking to it (like hosting it on imageshack) or uploading it to the forums.
If you are uploading it too the forums then it is 17KB i think. Linking ot it i don not know.

RE: Maximum size of avatar?
If I remember correctly, any size within reason (hosted somewhere else) is acceptable as long as it loads in a reasonably quick time for anyone. I suppose it's a thing of moderator/admin interpretation too....

Try to keep it under 70kb as a rule of thumb.
If it loads slowly, It will get axed and you will need to cut it down more.
