Profile Photo Upload

[jens_wachtel]

Hi,

I am running into issues when I try to upload a profile photo. No matter how small I resize my picture, the cropping function is not working properly. Maybe I do something wrong, but I didn't see a lot profile images so far. I guess I am not the only one. It's very uncommon to have a cubic profile image with the same height/width available.

If possible, can you also implement auto-resizing of the image, not only cropping?

Thanks,

Jens

Unfortunately photos uploaded aren't "one size fit's all" for everyone requiring members to crop their images.

Start with a larger image, as Manish suggested.  You should also try cropping it from just above your head, at the hair.  Maybe even give yourself a haircut if needed .

Thanks!

Thought there is an easier way for automation. But indeed, every image is different.

I go for the haircut

As a workaround, you can put white stripes on left and right side of image using MS paint or some other image editor. The image would then be more like landscape, and SCN would be able to show your full face as Avatar.

Once this is working you could try some other image editor to make surroundings transparent.
