Suggestion: On-site avatar crop/automatic avatar scaling

[Guest]

Hello! I did a quick search beforehand to know that there were no recent topics suggesting the same thing. I apologize if this has been suggested before or is something that can't be done.

on-site avatar crop feature

Taking from this post which mentions how Google does this when changing your icon, I figure that it shouldn't be all that hard to add a function where uploading an image to use as an avatar would open up a crop function, much how something like Discord or Google does. The end result of the image stays 100x100, but it would allow for easier uploading so that I wouldn't have to go to a different program or website just to resize my image for use on Chickensmoothie. Just something simple, similar to the discord setup pictured below, with a slider to adjust the size, and you can click and drag to adjust the positioning of the crop.

automatic avatar scaling

Another function to go hand-in-hand with the above suggestion is automatic avatar scaling. For example, when you upload an image that's 300x300, it would automatically scale down to 100x100 to fit as a CS avatar. While there isn't a whole lot of, I guess, practical function to it, it would save a whole lot of hassle when changing my profile picture, which I tend to do a lot.

Just a few things to consider.

I would REALLY love to see this feature be implemented! I have been avoiding changing my profile avatar for the longest time because the current avatar-setting system isn't the most user-friendly. Having to manually change the size of an image on a different website as well as needing to crop the image can be really off-putting. Big vouch, this would save a lot of time and would be very convenient.

This would be AWESOME! I just spent like 30 minutes trying to scale my image right, and even when i did it glitched out and said it was one pixel over, despite it being 99x99.. I think it would be a very welcome change on the site.

{HUGE support! I never change my pfp for this exact reason-- I have very few art pieces already small enough to fit. This would be so lovely to have implemented!}

I would like this yeah,

But I do have a workaround where I upload the pic to discord and link it into the off-site thing and it just auto scales it to 100-100 (works for 200-200 but idk about anything bigger)
