Comment (by hnla):

 Currently updating the admin modal views.

 Also re-defined the avatar constants to check how things handle with
 varying sizes defined by users (I tend to define a new default as a matter
 of course up at around 250px as it allows more flexibility in sizing ) as
 things stand the difficulty here is that with horizontal implementations
 of the two main elements we need to float both and manage their widths
 explicitly, if one of these elements has an unknown width or width that
 may vary this becomes problematical, in these circumstances one would tend
 to not float one of these elements so it could simply clear the unknown
 width, a classic floated layout is one floated the other overflowed to
 force a new box context to clear the floated item.

 There are two choices I may need to address element order in the templates
 to ensure floated elements are flowed first or we could try and get tricky
 and pass the new constant widths as a class token for floated element or
 parent or pass dimension properties to the style attr inline on the
 element, but that's as far as I've thought it through thus far  - re-
 ordering elements and adjusting rules is probably best option.
