They've changed it to a usergroup options. So just go to where you edit the usergroups and select the usergroup you'd like to have different sized avatars and change the sizes!

Secondly, do a chmod 777 on the images/avatars directory through your ftp client or through your shell client, so uploaded avatars can get saved properly. Floris, you would not believe how many people forget to do this...not to mention that on multiple occasions, I've had to explain how to set permissions like that.

hrm...interesting thought, would it be possible to put a feature into vBulletin that allows the admin to change folder permissions from the admincp? That would be very interesting...although it could judt be wishful thinking, lol

The bigger majority of hosting accounts are secured properly enough to not allow chmod commands to be run through the browser. I can imagine this won't be a feature for vBulletin.
