    I managed to get mine to work image Rather severe limitations on size/dimensions which are impressively difficult to overcome with common image formats. It looks like the Photoshop GIF format worked best, set with 256 colors that came out better than I thought it would and no interlacing to shave off a few bytes. A JPEG would have required a further reduction in quality or size, and PNGs didn't stand a chance for the 10KB limitation.

    I'm a software architect and I focus heavily on highly optimized, low-overhead software (even in today's high powered computers) so this was actually a rather enjoyable experience!

    Smalleagle1795 - nice coin and icon.

    I have no idea what your talking about but respect it never the less. image

    Do you have larger images of both sides that you're willing to share??

    Okay, in that case, it's highly likely I stole it from a past post you made.

    Everytime new avatar day comes I feel like I just joined a new chat forum. Takes me about 2 weeks to get familiar w/ everyone again.

    You bring up a great point Syl.

    Do NOT under any circumstances even so much as look at your profile if you have uploaded a new avatar/author icon.
    (O.K. I exaggerate - maybe you could peek if you're the peeking type image )

    You need to wait until it's included in the roster or bank of avatars and that can take more than a few weeks and less than a complete election cycle.

    Thanks! These aren't the best pictures of it but at least they're > 100x100 image I do plan on imaging it again once I get a proper camera setup: it's a 1797 $10 Small Eagle. It's one of my favorites just because of how hard they are to find:

    The new one fits me pretty well.

    Of course I'll go back to the old default eventually, but I like to periodically switch 'em up a bit- keep folks on their toes, y'know. image

    Gotta love small eagle gold - thanks for the pics.

    Copperguy - thanks. image

    MLC - A certain silver token would look very nice as an author icon. image

    How often does new avatar day come along? I'm on a Mac and apparently I don't get the thing-a-ma-jig at the bottom of the profile page to upload a new avatar. I tried Firefox without any luck. So I'd like to make sure a get to a pc next time new avatar day happens. Is there a set schedule for NAD? image

    I believe the change your avatar day is the 15th of the month.

    Someday, I'll get a coin related avatar.
