Just testing something. The new post icon seems to have been squeezed by vBulletin.

That sucks, they look really cool on Nutkinland. Maybe it has to do with differances in the board software?

I think Squirrel Nutkin must have edited some of the templates. I'll drop him an email to ask how he did it.

In my decidedly non-tech knowledgeable manner, maybe it has something to do with fixxed column widths. The column that the tag goes in may be fixxed at a certain number of pixels, and cuts off images bigger than that. Don't know exactly how to fix that, but it may be something to look for.

Sort of, orbitalfreak.

The icons have a fixed width of 15 pixels. Too wide icons such as Morrus new one will force the width of the icon column, and the forum will look horrible.

I would suggest the following:

Allow icons 20x20 pixels. This is large, but not too large. On the other hand, set the table cellspacing to 1 instead of the current value of 2-3.

A sample 20x20 icon:

Sounds good to me. Do you know how to do that? I can't see any options in the admin screen, so I guess it involves some template editing?
