Issue With Default Profile Picture
By berryblue, history, 2 years ago, In English

There is an issue with the default profile picture, it's 128x128 pixels but codeforces only lets you upload a profile picture with >=150 pixels. So, if you change your profile picture once and want to put the original profile picture back, it's impossible.

Please fix this MikeMirzayanov, if it's gonna be an issue to decrease the size limit from 150 pixels to 128 pixels, at least add an option to reset the profile pictures.

Default profile picture size(128x128 pixels):
Error accouring while trying to upload it:

update(after being ignored around 3month): my new suggestion is, if you press upload photo then press upload without choosing picture, it will change your profile picture to default one

      it's not the same when you add extra pixels though, there is obvious size difference when you compare them

        Why is this downvoted? What you're saying is absolutely correct. If you resize the image to 150x150, the picture will look "bigger" in both the comments and your profile. Naive upscaling also makes the image notably blurry.

        What I did was added a frame of transparent pixels around the picture. It's still not the same though.

          By the way, as a response to the OP, downloading the image from my profile picture is probably the easiest thing you can do.

            why it has to be so difficult to simply reset a profile picture :(

Does using an AI image upscaler like this help?
