Allow PNG avatars!
 

This is rediculous! I can't upload an avatar because the vBB defaults won't let me use PNG files. Not only does my avatar have an alpha-channel, I refuse to use a lossy format, and I refuse to use a terrible, patented format like GIF. Could an admin please fix this? I'm sure it was just an oversight.

How come I think its you who's ridiculous?
Why making such a noise about it?
Just convert to GIF, you are not printing your avatar for a
magazine so forget the quality lost (which is minimal).

You could've asked to allow PSD as well :)

GIF doesn't support alpha channels, and they're PATENTED, and they're LARGER than PNG.

You dont need an alpha channel for a simple small humble avatar!!

I like antialiasing. So there.

What is VOGONS anyway?

I never said I *liked* them...

Usually one links only homepages one likes...

If you went there you'd note that it has nothing to do with Vogons except for the blatant and obvious references to H2G2.
