Topic: [SOLVED] My avatar truncated.. in IE only

This strange behavior happen only in explorer!  Seems to appears when posting short messages.
See an example of this (please open my page in IE to see the bug)
Look at the avatar from the second and third post more precisely.

EDIT :PROBLEM SOLVED. 
It was a conflict on a 'hr' class in my own css.  I placed a link to my own css to get proper formatting of my header and footer.  The 'hr' class in my own css code entered in conflict with the forum horizontal rules. I solved the problem using a hr.classXYZ declaration.  Still I used 'a _margin: -7' declaration to correct IE hr misplacement.

Thanks you all for trying to help!  Especially to Ree

Re: [SOLVED] My avatar truncated.. in IE only

The page you linked to does not load. Firefox says "The server at pcfred.teddypokerdeals.com is taking too long to respond.". If the server is slow, that's probably the reason your avatars aren't loading properly. Either way, it's not a PunBB problem. Talk to your host.

Oups...  sorry the host was down for the night. Can you load it again?
This is not a host problem. I hate to say that, but it is definitely a punBB problem! sad

Load the page in Internet Explorer (not firefox neither opera) and look at the second and third reply in the topic.

HUm..  why ? It happens in the punBB forum.  My avatar had been changed.  Happen with all type of file. All type of size.
Anyway, it's not about pointing punBB to be defective.  I'm a just looking for help...  :?

Well, as PunBB doesn't generate your avatar but just puts it on the page with an img tag, I suppose it must be a) something in your style or b) IE

Re: [SOLVED] My avatar truncated.. in IE only

It's nothing about the CSS style file.  I've tried going back from my modified style to the default one. I Still have the same bug.
Yes it can be see as an IE bug.  But with more than 65% people using IE, i would be a fool to ignore it!

Anyone know how I can prevent my avatar to truncate in IE?

Re: [SOLVED] My avatar truncated.. in IE only

It's related to your signature. Are you sure you havn't edited anything in base.css?

Re: [SOLVED] My avatar truncated.. in IE only

The image files are fine and are only disrupted in IE.  That means it's an IE problem, not a PunBB problem.  I suspect there's a conflict between the PunBB CSS and your own CSS, both of which are loaded by the board.  I've had a similar problem outside of PunBB -- IE seems to have a CSS bug involving display:block on certain elements, but I haven't run down its exact cause yet.

EDIT:  The bug has to be in your "style.css"; when I replicate the page on my hard drive and remove only the line calling that stylesheet, the problem disappears.
