Hey guys,

I have modified the forum software to support high resolution avatars.

If you want to try it out go to My Controls > Edit Avatar Settings and upload your new avatar.

NB: You won't see the new avatar right away, but if you give me a shout here I will manually trigger a cache update for your avatar.

Looking forward to see some new details 😅

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 12 2020, 08:20 PM

So hopefully you should see my new avatar if you refresh the page:

I tried updating, but nothing happened!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 12 2020, 10:08 PM

Awesome Ben - I refreshed the cache for your image. If you try refreshing the page you should see this:

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Feb 12 2020, 10:25 PM

Yup! working now after clearing my cache.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 12 2020, 10:26 PM

Awesome - you are looking great! 👌

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Feb 12 2020, 10:27 PM

You are looking very high-res yourself too!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 12 2020, 10:43 PM

😁🙏

This is a bit like taking a digital shower!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 13 2020, 04:45 PM

Bump, we need more of these 😁

Posted by: Potsau Feb 13 2020, 08:28 PM

Great. Next: Do you recognize that you cannot add full reply with the mobilephone? The button to send is missing. 😅

Posted by: Phil66 Feb 13 2020, 08:50 PM

I'm still seeing Ben's old one.

UPDATE:

Viewer has to clear cache too, just clear cached images is what's needed if you need to keep your history

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 13 2020, 09:15 PM

Hehe but isn’t it this one (on iphone)



Ah yes thats the way to do it! The forum software is a bit ancient and not really built for todays heavy cloud caching (whatever that means 😅)

But I am glad I’m able to do this from my phone!

Posted by: Potsau Feb 13 2020, 09:23 PM

Strange last past days it does not appear

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 13 2020, 09:43 PM

Ah that is probably because I have been doing a lot of tweaking this week on the mobile version of the site!

Please do let let me know if you find anything else! 🙏

Does not matter. I love this forum. Can work and upload all with my phone. And now add replies. I just dont have to start my computer. ❤️

Posted by: onetabmat Feb 13 2020, 11:05 PM

It’s the same with my iPhone . If I add a youtube . And press reply there’s no send button. I have to copy and paste the sentence once I’ve added the video and have to refresh page and paste in add comment at bottom .

Posted by: Potsau Feb 13 2020, 11:09 PM

Try to empty your cache. I did not do this but mabey it works in your case.

Like I said: suddenly it appeared on my Iphone7

Posted by: klasaine Feb 14 2020, 02:49 AM

uploaded a new one for me.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 14 2020, 08:09 AM

Very nice Ken and Potsau - I did a hard reset on the server end and then I just needed to refresh the page in my browser with cmd-shift-r

Ken:






Potsau

I was able to paste the Embed code from youtube both in fast reply and full reply. If you still have this problem could you send me a screenshot?

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 14 2020, 10:44 AM

❤️🙏



Oh and Ken that guitar looks huuuge, or have you shrunk? 😅

Posted by: klasaine Feb 14 2020, 03:52 PM

Ha, ha!
It's a Fender/Squier Bass VI ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_Bass_VI

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 14 2020, 04:01 PM

Nice, but how can you hold it with just one hand like that?

Posted by: klasaine Feb 14 2020, 07:39 PM

It's supported on my kitchen table.
It weighs about the same as a P-Bass. The scale length is like a baritone guitar but tuned E to E, an octave below standard guitar. Interesting beast for sure.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 14 2020, 09:18 PM

Very nice improv, I can see how such an instrument makes you play differently!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 14 2020, 10:18 PM

Btw Ken you should def display your improv skills in the new collab! 👌👌👌

Posted by: Potsau Feb 19 2020, 10:58 PM

Hey Kris. My pics are shown in a nasty way on the pc. But on phone its alright.

look!





Huh?

This one does not Change the direction. dunno why

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 19 2020, 11:17 PM

I checked this picture from both my phone and pc (mac) - it looks good to me.

Are you saying it's upside down on your pc?

Posted by: Potsau Feb 19 2020, 11:51 PM

Look at studio pics. My pic is on the side on pc. But mobile it looks fine

I try this

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 20 2020, 12:16 AM

Potsau, do you know how to take a screenshot? This would greatly help me understand the issue.

Posted by: Potsau Feb 20 2020, 12:19 AM

I use the iphone feature and load up it as attachment

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 20 2020, 08:22 AM

I download your image and on my pc it is on the side as well, so I think maybe your phone is detecting the issue before you upload it to GMC (and automatically adjusts the image) - your PC does not do this, so that is why it appears on the side even at GMC.

Let me know if I got it right!

Posted by: Potsau Feb 20 2020, 09:20 AM

Thank you. I think that is the new auto adjust feature for pictures they added. Trying to fix it.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Feb 20 2020, 10:32 AM

Cool, hope you can work it out!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 2 2020, 01:29 PM

I noticed the forum said max size 50 kb for avatars, it has been change to 500 kb!

If you have updated your avatar and can't see a difference it means I have to refresh the cache on the GMC server end. If so just give me a shout!
