Friendly bump since I can't find anything else about this issue from forum.
I've noticed the exact same issue with the latest 1024x1024px portrait images.

Somehow I think this low-res rendering is set deliberately so all the new Alphas would get their 1st portraits.
Somebody has clearly underestimated the need for resources to handle all this grown workload Roll

the only thing i heard is that it may be a delay while the server renders the image in high graphics a few hours-day later so it clears itself up later. but i havent noticed a change in a few days.

also someone must have gifted me time cause when i logged in 2 days ago it said i was omega.

Yeah, delays are not that uncommon but these unfinished renders I've never seen before, which I still think are deliberate due the current heavy workload.

Noticed the same myself, and when I go to character creator portrait mode it is retrieving my old portrait pose - not the new one.

I'll take back all my earlier maling words towards CCP :
it quite honestly seems that they've made some arrangement to speed up portrait rendering times drastically. Yay ! :)
