Apparently the profile picture is now limited by 1024x1024px instead of 225x350px like before.

Not sure if that's a bug or a new change that wasn't announced yet. Good change if it was intended.

Have to say it actually looks pretty fancy. Picture.

This has some interesting side effects to say the least.

The same thing happens on profile comments too.

I have tested it out the absolute limit is 225x1024px for the longest and most filling image possible, check my profile for proof.

This was implemented in such a dumb way, the website is going to be broken in multiple places now, and will be even slower to load pages now

Should have kept it proportional if pfp size was meant to be increased.

So it seems it's another change no one asked for that was implemented in rather underwhelming way, eh?

Bigger size of profile pics is a cool feature in theory, but this update shows that it might not be good in practice if implemented without enough care.

Looks like they changed it back and now it looks even more ass than before. Classic MAL moment.

Pfps seem to not be fitting correctly in the borders now in the friends section of profiles. There's lots of white edges.

I'm glad I chose a pic with a white background for myself. I didn't see what was going on yesterday, but everyone else's pics now look terrible.

no, everyone asked for it actually I bet...

but you're right, they should've done much more testing before just releasing it without telling anyone

I mean fixing it is like one or two lines of code in CSS right? They just need to limit the size in the comments and user lists, I don't really see the issue.

technically yes. but there are so many mal pages where profile images are shown, they would find to find out a good amount of those pages, and open them all to test, and not all pages have the same style or CSS codes...

It would be nice if they would increase the max horizontal size for the forum avatars.

This was possible for some days and then it got reverted to this.

It produced some errors in other parts of the site but they would've been easily fixable.

You could do so many cool profile designs with a long profile picture like that and it looked really fancy.

@ateks No, we are not planning to do that as it was not intended in the first place.
