This has been bothering me for a while too.

Kinda waited to get used to it but it's not happening. Previous style was much better looking

(237,235,250) is the RGB color for the forum background. It's a simple edit in photoshop, especially if the picture was transparent before.

For me, the point is that there's still a white square border around it even if you change the colours, which still clashes with the transparent-style avatars. Also, any avatar that isn't 128 wide looks pretty bad with an uneven border, like yours.

I think the white-background in ava is looked bad.

Yeah I think the white background doesn't look good, please make them transparent like the old forum behavior.

This thread has not yet marked as invalid. <.<

Not changing this for now, sorry.
Anyway, it may look bad for others who has a custom border for their avatars.
IMO, it was just looking good.

Enforcing stuff users don't like but you do is the way to go.

I didn't really notice at all tbh and I don't think the new style is bad, couldn't care less about this anyways.

Based on what i've seen so far, most requests needs toggle. o3o

there should be no need for a toggle for this request

It doesn't really matter to me but it's silly to enforce this when those who want it could very easily just add it to their avatars themselves

At all I would like to hear the reason for this change from peppy. Then I am satisfied. It doesn't really hurt that we have the white background but it looks like a lot people is it worth to have a transparent background, for whatever reason.

design choice.

Fine as is. Stop wasting your efforts on transparent images.

iirc there used to be a transparent background when the new profile page style was applied, but the thick white border made it weird. It was like looking at a regular photo frame but seeing the color of the wall it is fixed to instead of white where the photo had holes in it or was too small for the frame. It is fine as it is now.

This looks better design wise for me, it's a shame you can't just choose to have an avatar the way you like tho.

Okay then. Sounds fair enough. It's actually better since it's easier to have a "transparent" background (it has to be from now white which is often way easier to get)

To be honest, I do like how osu! was designed.
Having different types of borders for the avatars makes a forum tainted.

Good, you can't see my avatar on the forums anymore!
