Don’t make the user fix the problem
I was going through updating my profile at SEOMoz and I realized I had an old profile picture. First off, you can’t just update it, you have to check Delete, press Save, press Edit Profie and THEN you can select a new one.
Below the choose file button there is this message:
Please try and upload a photo with square proportions. Rectangular photos will be stretched.
REALLY? I don’t expect you to do the cool Facebook thing where you can crop and resize on the fly, but at least just handle this nicely so I dont need to edit it on my end. You can crop it to be square on the center if it has to be square or you can just resize things proportionally.
I realize you think your audience is smart, but you’re being lazy. Rand Fishkin please fix this!
