Please make the file size limit for avatars higher. :/

Title. I'd like to upload a gif as an avatar, but the file limit is quiiite low: 512kb. Could you please up the current limit, at the very least for gifs? The website from LSPDFR uses the same Invision forum software, and for avatars, they have a limit of 4 whole MB's.

A while back we went through the groups and changed the archaic upload sizes to something better but I guess that didn't happen for the regular Members group. We use Cloudflare image caching anyway so it's not like it's a data savings thing. The limit has been increased to 2 MB which I think is fair enough and already 4x the size of what it was.

 

Just not much higher because we also don't want people to upload entire 4K screenshots as avatars  (although the max size is set to 512px)

Yeah, that's fair. Alright, well thanks for increasing the limit
