What are the size to use for a avatar?
Also same question for signatures.

I used to make a lot of signatures and avatar way back on Narutobase.
I kinda forgot that sizes ya'll use for avatars and signatures.

Thank you!

The way forum avatars work currently is you can have up until 200 x 400 avatar dimensions (maximum for the forum boards), and 200 x 200 (maximum for the user profile, as it will be cropped from the 200 x 400 avatar). So that makes up a maximum 1:2 ratio for the avatar.

I use 200 x 400 as my avatar dimensions (and re-align from the Edit Avatar dialog to compensate on my profile).

And it's worth noting that you can also use something a bit smaller than 200 x 400 (e.g. if you want a square avatar, just use the default 1:1 ratio).

EDIT: After checking, the natural size is 179 x 358 pixels

If I use 200 X 400 the avatar quality drops. Only 175 X 350 avatars are working well. Can you check if 200 X 400 avatars work?

Is it me or is my avatar bigger than the others' ?
Yours is currently at 150 x 350, a decent size but it's thinner, which makes it look a bit taller.
(It's based on Chrome's DevTools - Element Inspection Panel, if you're wondering)

EDIT: if you want it to be at 1:2 ratio, you can do 150 x 300 or 175 x 350
