Avatar Size

I've noticed that some non mods with more generously sized avatars than 80 pixels. For example, there is one here that is 150 in the long dimension:

Did we update this recently and it somehow slipped me?

Because I (ahem) have long felt that long term commitment to POTN should be rewarded with an increase in avatar size of a few pixels for each year of participation. It just makes good sense and has nothing to do with my sign-up date of 2003, ya know, it's just a good idea...

All kidding aside, has the 80 pixel limit been updated?

Not according to the avatar upload page.

That's what I thought too, but there it is...

I think they're sleeping their way to the top.

You can do that?

We think the Avatar Fairy is a close relative of he/she who's name we dare not speak...

Apparently so. I mean, they do have bigger avatars...

Occasionally, non-mods are bestowed a larger avi temporarily for various reason. When the member changes their avi it will revert to the standard size.

No change to the avi size rule has occurred.

Sure, sure, TD. I think they're sleeping their way to the top.

I don't dare mention any names for fear of the wrath of the TF, but apparently if you really enjoy being spanked, you get a nice reward afterwards.

Size isn't everything

Or at least that's what I'm told

Are you sure? CDS is first on the "Sleep with a Mod for a larger Avatar" list, but hasn't had any takers. It might be the whole "computer thing" people can't get past. I mean, how do you sleep with a computer?

Don't answer that!

I have been trying to change my Avatar for eons. My current Avatar is a photo of me at a younger age! (Believe it). The new one I want to post is less that 8Kb and maybe 50 by 50 or so and it gets rejected saying it is 14K. I give up!
