BuddyPress.org

well, I did that already. The original pic is a jpg taken with a proper DSLR. But doing the same crop via buddypress and my image editing programme makes a notable difference, it’s set to 72 dpi when editing. Not sure what compression buddypress uses (0.9 or lower?) when storing the image but it seems bad. It seems worse compared to ste crop wordpress does when uploading pics. And to make it worse, the buddypress crop file size is larger compared to doing the same crop with the image editing programme – and that with lower quality. I’m devastated.

Specifically, NEW posts are not showing up in the Activity feed after i moved buddypress to the sub-site. But posts that were done before the move are. Why is this and how to fix it?

thanks @buddycore but I already did that. I even uploaded a larger avatar to get it resized but not a big difference. So I assume it’s due to the image compression when cropping/resizing. When I edit the image with an image editor and replace the files created by buddypress (given the exact same names and dimensions) it looks far better then having it done with by buddypress. But that’s nothinhg members of the site will be able to do. They rely soley on buddypress.

Is there a way to set the quality of the avatar when cropiing/resizing?

I seem to be struggling to get many responses for my problem.

Does anyone know any buddypress experts I could pay to solve this issue? I would really appreciate a response.

Thank you

Thanks for reply, doesn’t matter. I’ve given up once again with BuddyPress, I’ll take a look back when nouveau comes out.

Not sure if the problem is image size related or if it’s the compression set for buddypress. The crop preview looks much better than the final avatar pic! Any thoughts how to solve this?
