Uploading avatars...

So there is a 20KB limit.
My Avatar is 20KB.
I can't upload it... WHY?

That's because:
1 KB is 1024 B

I thought 1KB is 1000 B !!!! <= that's because people like numbers whit many 0-s (especially when they talk about money)
The fact is that when we talk about very limited space... every byte counts.
The actual limit is 20000 bytes not 20 KBytes (20 KBytes = 20480 Bytes)

Ok, i have set the limit to 30KB.

Is your avatar 100 x 100 pixels (or less)?

20480 would have been more than enough. But hey 30KB (hope it's KB

) is better for all of us.
BTW it's a:
100x100
32 bit
9 pass lossless PNG compression
20306 bytes
