In the Support category regarding large profile pictures on free plans, ondrej reported an issue where profile images appeared excessively large on both desktop and mobile views, affecting custom and default Gravatars. They noted that as a free site, they could not apply custom CSS or themes to fix it. rishabh responded that the issue seemed odd, as their own test site displayed correctly across various views and screenshots were provided to show normal sizing. ondrej later clarified that switching browsers to Edge resolved the large image issue but temporarily introduced new layout errors, which they attributed to a site update occurring around the same time. After confirming the errors had disappeared, rishabh acknowledged the updates and suggested monitoring the situation to see if the problems recur.
I tried to replicate this here on Meta using the Horizon theme but I cannot. With it being a free site its not going to be any customisations as you can’t get any TCs or edit css etc.
This happens on both custom and default gravatar profile pictures and on both desktop / mobile
