Jacob, and I have recently implemented a new function on Fakku that will allow you to crop out your Fakku-sized avatars from any image you upload that exceeds the maximum width and/or height of the forums. We implemented it a few days back, but didn't tell anyone, other than a few people on IRC we had test it.
How to use
Note: Toggle spoilers for an image example
Step 1 Go to your (
profile) and hit "Choose file" to open the browse dialog.
Find an image you think would make a good avatar that is above 160x260px, but less than 3000x3000px and also under 1MB. Once you've done that scroll to the bottom and hit submit just like you would anytime you're editing your profile.
Step 2 Upon uploading an avatar that exceeds the forums maximum avatar width, you will be sent back to your profile and given a crop tool to select which portion of the image you wish to crop. You can scale/zoom by changing the size of the crop tool, it will automatically scale the image to 160x260px while keeping aspect ratio.
Step 3 Once you finish that you scroll down and hit submit again, and if no errors have occurred you should be sent back to your profile with your newly cropped avatar. As shown above.
