I have created a brand new avatar for me. It is a PNG file with the following characteristics: Filename: haashavtr.png It has a RED BG that definetly shouldn't be there! I have set this red color to be a transparency. Now... It WAS transparent on the site the moment I submitted it. It IS transparent on my computer (thumbnail). It's NOT transparent on the site anymore. I was sure it was smaller than that.... Now... any Idea on what went wrong? I'm going to remove the pic and submit again. It's horrendous with the red BG.... |

IE doesn't like PNG, that's why it doesn't support PNG transparency. And if you want to set it as your avatar, the max avatar size is 64*64 here. :\

ahhhhhhhhhhhh thats why.... It was the first time I have seen it on IE6. I will save it as GIF and submit it once more. Then, I'll delete the previous PNG icons. Hope this works. Yeah.... I had the 100X100 size on my head when creating the avatar... Thanks for the help. |

rather change browsers than formats
 IE hinders the common progress of web design.. and all (not that I had a grasp of all those new standards other browsers try to implement  ...) |
