i tried the all the code in the link you posted. (i put it in CSSEditor). i changed the width & height pixels but its still the default size

post what you did.

Nozumi · December 2014

i put the following in CSSEditor

 .ProfilePhotoMedium {
height: 80px;
width: 80px;
}
.ProfilePhotoSmall {
height: 80px;
width: 80px;
}
.ProfilePhoto {
height: 80px;
width: 80px;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
.ProfilePhotoLarge {
width: 200px;
}
.Photo img {
width: 250px;
height:auto;
}
.Author img{
height: 80px;
width: 80px;
}

the default was 40px but i changed to 80px. but the avatar not 80px just remain the same size

try....

.ProfilePhotoMedium {
height: 60px !important;
width: 60px !important;
}

that worked but the pic is now overlapping with the theme

i hoped that the theme would automatically adjust (go smaller) to make room for the bigger pic.

is there a way to do this?

or try

.Photowrap img{
width:80px;
height:80px;
}

Nozumi · December 2014

the photowrap didnt work also tried adding !important to it

Ok guessing is over, please give a link to the forum so we can inspect the code and help you with more accuracy.

yes. you need to study css and adjust things that get displaced.

or make the image a reasonable size instead of 80px but a bit bigger and save yourself the pain.
