Profile pictures are huge

AI-generated summary

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

i don’t think it matters but currently my Desktop category page style site setting is set to ‘Boxes with featured categories’

That’s odd. Are you still seeing this, and could it be browser/network-specific? I just started a new site now and things look fine on /latest:

with Boxes:

Hi Rishabh,

Changing browser to Edge worked on my laptop and removed the large profile pictures. However, On edge I now get this:

These errors all appeared at the same time

Since its a free site and can’t change themes etc its definitely not something I’ve done :laughing:

:memo: Edit: I no longer get this error. I see I posted 9hrs ago and the site was updated 7 hours ago.

Ah, thanks for the update on both problems. Let’s see if it happens again!
