Gravatar Display Bug There is a bug with the display of Gravatars. When selecting a Gravatar as a logo in the TelHosting panel, you click it, and it automatically sets, for example,https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0...43011fb48?s=80 as the image to display (s=80 specifying that the height and width should be 80 pixels). However, in the HTML, the img tag specifies the width and height to be 78 pixels. In my case, at goldstein.tel: Code:
[size] This invokes the browser's resizing algorithms to decrease the width and height by 2 pixels, which, at least in Firefox, makes the image blurry. A solution would be to either specify ?s=78 when selecting a Gravatar, or (more logically) to change the HTML-defined width and height to 80 instead of 78.[/size] |
I always make them 78x78 |
Yes, I would too if I was using a normal image. However, I am using Gravatar, and .tel doesn't let you specify the size. It automatically sets ?s=80 (80x80, not configurable), and the page resizes it to 78x78. |
i dont like gravatar, everywere my pic is popping upp ! i use photobucket but a lot of the pics dont work i wunder wy ? |

Telnic - pls don't change the html settings as all non gravatar users have created logos 78x78 so a change at the proxy level would mess up all these logos...[/size] |
Thanks for raising this rgolds. We will update it so that the gravatar is set to 78 and not 80. |
just a thought why not use the image tools created by dottel owners/developers rather than trying some other tools which you have difficulty/issues using them? I know gravatar is well known and established but when it's not working may be try the tools that are exclusively built for .tel sites? you could be encouraging the developers this way.. |
Sorry for my impatience, but is there an ETA for this fix? I would imagine that changing the Gravatar suffix from ?s=80 to ?s=78 would be pretty straightforward. Thanks, -Ryan |
Again, sorry for being impatient - I noticed that nadya is back (welcome back!), so I was hoping to get her attention on this :p Seems like a pretty easy fix; all that needs to be done is to change the Gravatar suffix from ?s=80 to ?s=78 so as to avoid invoking the browser's resizing algorithms, causing blurriness of Gravatar images. Thanks! -Ryan |
Hi Ryan, Thanks for the warm welcome. Unfortunately (or otherwise), I don't make functional changes, so it's not up to me to speed up the update. I understand that the fix may seem simple, and hopefully we'll fit it into our next release, which will require testing and time. Thank you for your patience. |
