    I get a .jpg when I download your profile pic. Based on your screenshot, it's a .png where it's saved on your computer. JPEG is a different format and uses compression, so that's what's causing the blur. Don't know why the forum software converts it, but now you know and can plan around it.

    It doesn't look blurry for me... this is basically what I get when looking at your avatar.

    What are you using to view the site? Firefox? Chrome? MS Explorer/Edge? Safari?

    Also what is the scale you're viewing the site at.

    I use chrome at 175% because the text is too small for me at 100%

    Preferably, I would like to use the original 1046x1060 version for full HD if possible, but every version I've tried uploading came out a little blurry.

    Going to be honest, it's the scale of your browser that is making your avatar blurry. XD

    ...Well it would certainly be funny if that's the case XD However, the reason why I noticed my profile pic was blurry in the first place was because someone pointed it out when I still had my old profile pic, so I'm somewhat sure it's not just me.

    ...unless both Coldbluestreak and I view our browsers at high scale, which would just make this whole thing even funnier XD

    Basically when the page is zoomed... images generally become blurry. This is especially true when the image has fine details.

    Well alright then, I'll just use the 1046x1060 version and trust that it isn't blurry for other people.
