**Give your runboard a set parameter for avatars***

Firstly go in your Custom Langue Set settings and find the field labelled

post_list_registered and add this <bdo dir="ltr"> BEFORE what is already written in this field.

Then, still in your Custom Langue Set settings find the field labelled

post_list_quote and add this </bdo> AFTER what is already written in this field.

That is stage one done, save and exit.

Then go to your CSS settings and add this bdo img{width:80px; height:100px;}

All you need to do then is edit the width and height to what you want, or if you leave height blank (or accidentally forget to put the px in like i did!!!), it will scale down or up the avatar to the width suggested, yet keep the height of the picture at the same aspects.

Walla, the forum is aligned, and looks far more tidy.

Re: Website/board design

haha, I like how you did it so your avatar doesn't look squahsed/stretched emoticon

so it isn't a size limiting code, it's a resizing one

Re: Website/board design

no probs mate, I guess it's all about finding a h*w size which keeps (as near as possible) the ratio of your member's avatars so they don't get stretched or squashed too much

Re: Website/board design

I just realised that I put the dimension in for the height, so I need to remove it and leave it blank so they all keep the same dimension ratio, so we just have a width reduction

oops
