Avatar Size (MODS)

This is for encouragement, ideas, and support for people going through a faith transition no matter where you hope to end up. This is also the place to laugh, cry, and love together.

Hey mods would it be possible to increase the pixel size of avatars so I can use my old avatar? Can't find it in 180 X 180.

Try again stealth. I increased it to 300 x 300. If that doesn't work google a resize image site.

You can always post the image in this thread. I can edit it down to 180x180 and repost it here.

I realized that I really should have posted this request in a different section or PM. Sorry everyone.

FYI, we've been a 99.9999% self moderated board.

Allie Oop, Trophywife, and Achilles are technically moderators (probably on vacation?)

I think there have been a few issues:

Kishkumen misbehaving.
Newme's homophobic rants and concern for anal fissures.
I posted a distasteful "come to Bednar" pic.

Not bad for almost 2 years!

Oh, and just a warning...

We've had a few Easter eggs show up during GC with the word censor! No offense to Elder Vader!

Hey, Stealth, welcome back!

(I'd still like to know why the old board disappeared. Death of the owner?)
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.

Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.

Actually, we would also like to know what happened to the owner. Thayne did a great job and it just disappeared on forlorn September day in 2016. We never got a good answer to this question. Perhaps it will just remain a deeper mystery. But we are all thankful for the time and effort that Thayne put into the old site.

As far as I know Thayne is alive and well. He used to show up regularly at Hermey's Saint Judas gatherings. The last time I saw him he told me he was ready to extract himself from NOM and move on from Mormonism in general. After that he just let the domain expire.

I'm so glad he stuck with it as long as he did because NOM has helped a lot of people. I spent this morning hanging out with AstroNOM. He has completely moved on, but he is very grateful that NOM was there to give him a community to help him through his transition.

That’s a great update! I had heard or have a possible memory that Thayne thought it was getting too expensive and he let it go as a result. They had raised the price quite a bit apparently.

Hello again, stealth. It's good to hear from people who were here when I first came on board. I like the new Avatar size.
God is Love. God is Truth. The greatest problem with organized religion is that the organization becomes god, rather than a means of serving God.

Wow - I haven't been here for awhile - and then I read this thread and realize I recognize all the names. Seems like old times. Hi guys. Hagoth - do you sometimes attend St. Judas still? I went a couple weeks ago. Would love to meet the Tapir rider in person sometime;)

I'm glad to know Thayne is okay. I wish he'd told us he was going to let it lapse, though.
