Trust me - something has changed. My avatar is the same file it was a week ago & now it is smaller than it was before after re-uploading it Wednesday.
Okay nice to see someone else agree's with me

I only use the Album Option so guess I'll just have to settle

Ah was going nuts trying to change my avatar to the same size it used to be. So it will be able to be back to the 150x150 again shortly? Have a mini avatar there now.

100x100 is the new permanent size. If you want a bigger image you should use the personal photo feature. It doesn't get used anywhere right now but will be more prominent in the future.

How do you do the personal photo method? I just uploaded my avatar in the avatar section and makes it small.

I'm pretty sure cthree means that no matter what, your avatar will still be 100pix, but soon the "personal photo" will start being used... somewhere. I don't know where, but it sounds like not in your avatar though.

Why the change anyway? 100x100 is tiny. I thought 150x150 was a nice size.

In the days of 1600+ resolution, 100x100 is way small.

From above:

This is to accommodate upcoming changes to the layout which will make sense in a few weeks.

How can you say it's too small?
