Originally by: MrGerb LOL, they still didn't fix it!?
And here I was, thinking Blizzard was the worst service provider. At least they have the excuse of having to handle 10 MILLION CUSTOMERS, what's your excuse CCP?
To get people that are so damn hung up on a portrait to leave before we have to hear the "ZOMG, I got ganked in highsec" crap soon to follow...
Who gives a crap about being ganked? I'm talking about lack of a SIMPLE service, which can be done in quite a short time.
And is of possibly the lowest priority imaginable. It'll get done some day, in the mean time you're hardly unable to utilize the forums, o budding forum warrior.
Your forum-fu is strong, I can tell. Worry more about how that translates in to game-fu. :)

Edited by: Slade Trillgon on 22/03/2008 14:10:20 Happy Saturday all. See you all when I get off work.
Oh yes if you are new do not worry about your portrait. It may show up tomorrow, or if you are like me you will be without one for 6 months or more.
.............................. Play the game enjoy
The forums, love to hate them

Just had an idea pop into my head. What if CCP is not making this a priority because with ambulation coming they might be giving everyone the opportunity to redo their pilots image, so why waste time fixing the code or whatever is needed to incease the rendering rate/process.
Just an thought.

I'm posting with my alt's character, which is barely a week old but I had to post something here out of sheer principle. :)
My main, which I created in 11/2007, has a portrait that shows up, which is so unfair compared to so many of you that have had to wait much longer for yours and/or are still waiting! Whether or not the portrait showing up in the forums is 'important' is irrelevant; the fact is it's important to enough people (myself included) to warrant so much response as evidenced by this thread. CCP knows this - but ultimately gameplay issues are far more important. I'm confident CCP will get around to this forum-portrait issue when the time is right.
Until then ... I'm proud to count myself among this elite group of people whose force of character is so profound as to transcend the very problem that brought us together in the first place!

You've been POSTING with this character for 7 months or it's 7 months old? They don't render forum portraits for characters that have never posted.

True. Even better!!!
This thread would become EPIC, LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It already has to be the post with the most ! portraits to post in it. Not that is a goal that is spectatcular or anything. It is just quite funny to hit each page and see all those !'s.

I am not saying it would be good or bad, but I will say that I do not think that it will destroy the lore of the game.
Quite honestly, if ambulation works, a new isk sink could be created where someone could pay a massive amount of isk to have a complete face over all the way to a sex change. Since people could change their look, but not their name, rendering portraits on the server should then be eliminated and we all become !'s with names on the forums.
This is really a laughable idea to be honest. But, since I am being honest it is what time period in the future, we are flying space ships, and the technology for plastic/reconstructive surgery are not possible? Well it is not supposed to be real life, so I guess all the time and energy that could of been spent on perfection the science to reconstructive surgery, the doctors spen on trining to perfect cloning technology.
Well this is really just a bunch of fiddle-faddle. Just some banter to keep this thread somewhat interesting.

I'm curious to see the code that's actually behind generating portraits on the forum.
I'm no expert on CCPs code (but I am a programmer) but it strikes me that rendering images is trivially easy in most languages. I also can't really see it being a hugely intensive process either in terms of system resources to do, plus it clearly can be written as an automated process.
If there really is 200k+ portraits left to render (according to another thread), prioritise it according to those of us who are actually active in the game.
I know forum portraits are low-priority, but I don't think you can write off the investment people make in their characters - even if not from a fully RP perspective. It's annoying to have to put up with the ! :(

I seriously think we are marked for non-rendering for something we did in our first few weeks as pod pilots. /sarcasm

What about just opening up the custom avatar feature of these forums so we can upload images ourselves should we wish?
limiting the size of the images etc..
I dunno.. i just dont like being a '!'
