It would be cool if their was an option to post an image in the 80 x 80 size on these forums. For instance, when you normally post an image on here the default size that it will appear as is 160 x 120. So you can get a good idea of how it would look as an icon, but it would be easier to tell if you could see the image on an 80 x 80 box with the Midway background. Hopefully its clear what Im talking about here, and I think this would make it much easier for admins/users to see how icons will look after uploaded when they look in the submissions thread. Ive seen this on other forums, and you can just type "[icon=]" with the url after the = sign.

Yeah, I agree. I've been thinking about that too. It would make it a lot easier on everyone.

I've seen that for other forums too and I do agree that that would be a good idea.

If it doesn't work out, another possibility I just thought of would be to paste the icon onto a transparent 160x120 space and post that.

Well it has to be 80x80 to be uploaded. I mean, I know how to test out an icon with photoshop to see if itll looks good against the background, just thought this could make it easier for users who dont.

You're right, it would be great happy

I don't think it's on the "approved" list, but I know it's been suggested before.
