I put a new avatar up, which includes my tattoos, among other things. My monitor is getting old and the avatar looks too dark to me. Need your opinions. I put up another pic that was/is similar, it also looked some brighter. I don't know which is best. Help please. Hash P.S. The glans looks wet because the tattoo artist put "bactracin" on it and then took the pic. The other pic is without the bactracin.

I can fix that.

I suspected the evil overloard could accomplish just about anything. I also need help with my avatar. I reduce it in size to meet the requirements but it always comes out looking super pixelated here. I just don't get it. I have no problems posting pics elsewhere. And lots of avatars here clearly show details of faces, and other things Hash:D, with no apparent pixelation.

Flo,

I guess that's why he's got 20 stars and you only have 11 stars, when you've got them, flaunt them.

This is a bug in VBulletin, with a resize feature.

If your file is too big, VB tries to resize it - and fails.

Send the image file to [email protected] and I'll upload it.:D

Looks fine to me, both in terms of sharpness & contrast (at least viewing through one of the most recent Packard Bell monitors with an "auto adjust" function turned on). You seem to have gotten picture size just about right, as well.
