There's no option for it, it just resizes to the ACP max avatar size settings when a user uploads an avatar that's bigger than those settings.

Hi!

It works as intended in phpBB 3.3.5 / PHP 7.3.

It's working on phpBB 3.3.7
PHP 7.4

I saw someone having an issue installing it. please note that when you download it from GitHub, the folder is called avatarresize-master so you need to remove the "-master" and then include it in a folder called "ger".

Maybe someone else has mentioned this, but the maximum size of the avatar needs to be increased:
ACP > General > Avatar Settings > Maximum avatar file size.
In my particular case, I don't want people to worry about looking at the value in Bytes and figure it out what that is so I just set the file size to 0.
That way, the message with the size will not show up at all when they are adding the avatar.

Hope this helps other users.

RIP it doesn't work if you have the round avatar extension installed on the same board

Anyone know of a workaround?

I don't know what that extension does, but if it makes an avatar rounded at upload, that would probably conflict since both extensions try to manipulate the file during upload.

I would personally just use a border-radius to display a rounded avatar on rendering. That way, you leave the original file available when you decide to change your style sometime in the future. That wouldn't conflict with any extension.

Assuming that this is event driven remember that you can force the order that events run

The error message is pretty clear: you have limited the file size, the image is bigger than that. Just remove that limitation, resizing on upload should never result in extreme file sizes.

Works really well. I have been using this one on my live board for more than a year now.

Thank you very much for the information. I will upload it right away.

A much needed extension.

two problems occurred. The first one turns the pictures I uploaded from the tablet sideways. But I'm not sure if this is photo based.

Second, it gives an error about the size when uploading some photos. It refers to the functions file in the phpbB directory.

"an error". I can't help if you don't specify.

Image rotation is a general phpbb upload issue.
