[Resolved] BP 2.2 beta 1 login avatar

I’ve been trying out the 2.2b1 and so far I think it’s looking very solid. The only thing that I’ve noticed is that the user avatar in the BP log-in widget is being squeezed in width from (at least in my theme) 50 to 40 px. This wasn’t the case in 2.1.

I’m using a child theme of twentythirteen (though the problem exists in the parent theme as well), and WP 4.1. It also happens in both Firefox and Chrome. I saw that there is a Trac ticket (#5817) that seems to be focused on avatar images. Just thought I’d put this out there for reference. Thanks so much for all the time and work going into these releases. It’s much appreciated!

Thanks for testing, @chubbycrow.

Going to ping @mercime for input here as she recently made changes to the avatars in widgets.

mercime – Okay to revert line 1558 from changeset 9341?

Or was there a reason for the 40px declaration?

@r-a-y and @djpaul Thank you. Scaling down the login widget avatar to 40px from 60px allowed for more space for long usernames or real names when user is logged in, instead of being wrapped around two lines. Aesthetically, it also made the avatar size uniform with all the other avatars in the other BP widgets.

If you want the large size, it’s a simple fix like so:
.widget.buddypress .bp-login-widget-user-avatar {
width: 60px;
height: 60px;
}

edit – forgot to add height before 😉

To be clear, scaling the avatar is fine in my book. But it isn’t scaling, it’s squishing, which has a slimming effect on a member’s avatar so I suppose it could be considered a ‘feature’ 🙂

For future reference, this issue is resolved in BP 2.2 RC2.
Thanks, to @mercime, @r-a-y, and @djpaul.
