Why is my avatar so squished?

[claire up north]

If it didn't take me about 5 years to figure out how to even have an avatar, perhaps I wouldn't care so much. But my little Diet Coke can looks mighty short and fat, even though it looks fine on my profile page. Not that there's anything wrong with short and fat, mind you, but it does seem a little oxymoronic, don't you think?

This is so funny. But, actually your can of diet Coke looks just fine to me. The size of the avatar is skinnier because it's just the width of the coke can.....but the can itself doesn't look short, fat, or squished at all. It looks exactly right.

 

ETA: Wait!! Hmmmm......actually, the avatar right next to your post looks just fine. But, the avatar up above by the title, and then on the main page when it's really little next to your name does look a little squished. Darn it! I don't know why and I don't know how you could fix it. So sorry! I guess this wasn't at all helpful. :sad:

Mine was squished too, so I changed it. Susan's overmind avatar is also looking squishy. I am sure it has to do with the way the images transferred.

Mine looked too distorted. I just changed it temporarily...??? Will they fix this problem? I hope so, because I want to use a different one.

 

I wondered if the transfer was the problem.
