Why can't I make my Avatar transparent? I'm 100% certain the image has no background (I'm manipulating it in Gimp) but when I post it to the forum, it's surrounded by a white square... unlike Snoopy/Eddie's...

I save mine as a PNG file and the transparency works for me.
Yeah, it's really weird. I tried that and no luck. My sig is fine with transparency, but the avatar isn't, png or jpg. I matched the background of the left border so it "looks" transparent right now, but obviously it isn't.
Da FAC?
Make sure you are within the limits of a max avatar size (pixels) when uploading.
If vBulletin needs to resize, you loose the transparency.

Gah! That fixed it... but now on the main page the images aren't rendering. Is that just my browser, or you see that too?
FYI... size is now 17KB, 90x90 pixels.
Da FAC?
Yeah, on the main page, flightlog and the "what's new" page, the avatar sizes are different and the forum will always resize them.
The only way to avoid all this is to use an avatar without transparency, or just like most of us, don't give a damn
