Avatars are working ... sort of.
-
As you can see, they are working. But ... there seems to be a bug here, in that there are now two OriginalGriff accounts - and I'm both of them. Is the new management trying to say I'm schizophrenic? Or that I'm a Gestalt od semi-competant individuals (as has been suspected before at CP)?

I was able to change my account settings but it was awkward. it yelled at me for not preshrinking my image before uploading. I guess it gives MS paint justification for existing in 2025, but i kind of expect sites to do that on my behalf these days. 256KB upload requirement means anything coming from a real world source has to be precropped.
That's not a showstopper, but when I tried to upload anyway - breaking the validation, it cleared my ENTIRE FORM. That's no bueno. I had to enter my bday and all that again because i had to cancel the image upload.
Your form validation is either fragile or relying on some outdated tech, or both. Sorry, I hate to be that person. Just grateful to be here ultimately, but I felt that this issue should be made known.

@code-witch Thank you for bringing this to our attention, the dev team removed the limitations on the avatar photo.
