Avatar Gallery Submission Thread

[Humanophage]

Could something be done about avatar stretching in PC browsers? They are not the original intended size next to the posts, which leads to blurring.

left: blurred next to posts; right: clear in the profile/avatar selection.

Likely xenforo not liking the file not having either dimension be 96 pixels. Adding transparent padding (lazy) or redoing those avatars to make them bigger (autistic) is likely to solve the issue.

 

[Infinitron]

Yeah, you're using some ancient JPG avatar.

So many avatars, from so many people. This truly is the merriest place on the Codex. I've one final gift to give you all this season, unfortunately I've had to discontinue the other half the Pokemon avatars due to extenuating circumstances. But I've an alternative, a set of avatars that're bright and full of color, a set of avatars rendered with painstaking love & care, a set of avatars as unique and multifaceted as the community they've been made for.

(They're a hash taken from New Horizons and Pocket Camp, but there's more from NH)

And many, many more.

Can we request one personal avatar, not a whole bunch of them?

For myself, personally, I'd like to use this image:

Unlikely, but in case admins end up satisfying your request, here's the image in proper dimensions:

Just so you know, there are 83 avatars made from Boris Vallejo artworks available in the gallery:

Consider this a Merry Christmas.

And a happy new year to you. Live long and

Thank you, ropulos.

So are those poll results just gonna be ignored?

So now they're started accepting trivial works of lesser artists but not including these masterpieces from the Numenera Collector's edition?

Infinitron, what gives??

Non-square shaped. But fine.

The latest in avatar gallery innovation! Got a game with non-square shaped portrait images? Instead of manually cropping them, try applying ~deep learning~ to automatically locate the faces and extract them. Here's the rather simple Python source code, which makes use of this library: https://github.com/ageitgey/face_recognition

import face_recognition
import os
import PIL

PORTRAIT_EXT = ".png"
OUTPUT_DIR = "Output"

def expand_portrait(startY, endY, expand, maxHeight):
    offset = min(startY, int(expand/2))
    startY -= offset
    expand -= offset

    offset = min(maxHeight-endY, expand)
    endY += offset
    expand -= offset

    startY -= min(startY, expand)

    return startY, endY

if not os.path.exists(OUTPUT_DIR):
    os.mkdir(OUTPUT_DIR)

for portrait_filename in [filename for filename in os.listdir() if filename.endswith(PORTRAIT_EXT)]:
    portrait = face_recognition.load_image_file(portrait_filename)
    locations = face_recognition.face_locations(portrait)
    if not locations:
        locations = face_recognition.face_locations(portrait, number_of_times_to_upsample=2, model="cnn")

    for index, location in enumerate(locations):
        startY, endX, endY, startX = location
        startY, endY = expand_portrait(startY, endY, portrait.shape[1]-(endY-startY), portrait.shape[0])

        result = portrait[startY:endY, :]

        result_filename = portrait_filename if index == 0 else os.path.splitext(portrait_filename)[0] + str(index) + PORTRAIT_EXT
        PIL.Image.fromarray(result).save(OUTPUT_DIR + os.sep + result_filename)

And here it is applied to Expeditions: Conquistador, which had a crappy and incomplete JPG avatar gallery:

MGS V fixed - 96x96

Stygian - fixed 96x96

 

[Infinitron]

PulsatingBrain Your avatars are all 97x97 instead of 96x96 for some reason.

 

[PulsatingBrain]

Aw shit, I'll fix them

Edit - done

 

[Infinitron]

Since you reminded me I own the game now, I uploaded a more complete Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones avatar gallery.
