Why does this happen on every non-beta stackexchange site (ex: cooking.SE and bicycles.SE)?

Bug picture

but not on non-beta SE places, or non-SE subdomains like Superuser or Stack Overflow like shown in this picture:

Normal picture

Device info: iPhone 5s, mobile safari (iOS)

It might also happen on private betas, as this problem occurs on Stack Overflow in Portuguese.

  • Looks like this is specific profile pictures uploaded to Imgur. Gravatar images have a width="24" height="24" set on them.

  • @animuson yes, but it only has it on non-beta stackexchange sites, not places like stackoverflow

  • No repro. Animuson is probably right.

  • Might be local cache, imgur create a different image for each possible size so maybe the 24x24 version used on top bar was taken from cache as the full size image or 128x128 version used in your profile page. Clear your mobile browser cache and see if it helps.

  • @Shadow That didn't help at all... And as I said, it only happens on SE sites, not places like SO

  • @ManofSnow don't think it's on all sites, for me it happens only on br.stackoverflow.com and the actual image source there ask for the 128x128 px version in the top bar.

  • @ManofSnow It shows up fine no matter what I try. I even tried using your avatar, and it's still showing up at the right size.

  • @AnnaLear Are you using imgur as the profile pic?

    @IlmariKaronen nothing weird. In the full site the avatar is indeed classed as "avatar-me" which has CSS forcing 24x24 but in the mobile theme there is different HTML for the top bar and it's wrapped with "gravatar-wrapper-24" class which has no CSS rules attached to it. It's totally depending on the image actual dimensions, which are 24x24 on most sites, but as I found, not all of them.

Finally got a repro on this. Thanks, Shadow Wizard. :)

This is an issue that only affects (some) avatars uploaded to Imgur, and it should be fixed in the next build.

  • @ManofSnow We don't really do that. There should be a new build either tonight or tomorrow morning. We deploy pretty frequently.
