What types of image format are acceptable for Avatar use?

I know that PNG and GIF work - although they are "fuzzy".
I know that BMP and TIFF are not accepted by the upload process ("illegal file format").


Thanks,

DJ

    I had a JPEG there for a bit. Seemed to work.

    Generally speaking, we want to use images that have a small file size. There can be up to 25 avatars presented on a single page of a thread. The smaller images will help the pages load faster. That's good for everyone.
