Why can't I put my avatar up, fury.

This one meets all the requirements and it won't let me upload it. When I save it as a jpeg it does.

You could PM your password and i could try setting your avatar for you. Then you just change your password.

BTW, did you attached the avatar to your post? (i can't see it)

Extensions are case sensitive and I think they have to be .gif, .jpg, or .png to work, and be the ONLY extension on the file, e.g. you can't name something "My.avatar.gif" because the software will be confused and think it is a .avatar file type, which it doesn't allow.

What is the file name of the avatar you are trying to upload? (checking the properties of the image won't let me find out)

You know, a few days ago i had this problem with uploading files in some posts, it seems that the board can't upload the same file twice (two files with the same name), maybe that's what's holding the board from uploading your avatar.

Try renaming the file before uploading it.

For some reason it won\\\'t let me upload the .jpg, but it does upload the .bmp. Here\'s the .bmp...

damnit, now it won't let me upload the bitmap

Rename the file before uploading it (just put a number in the end, before the extension)....i guess you missed my post below.

It must be something with your browser and this board.

Or you just choose some very weird pics :D

BTW, here is your the yoda avatar you wanted to have a while ago, try renaming the file and uploading it.

freako, here is the avatar you use at jjr's

Download it to your computer, and then go and edit your profile, select custom avatar, choose the file, and hit save.

You're done.

I'd rather have the yoda pic. I saved it as "yoda" and tried to upload it. I'm running IE6 with winxp. don't know why it won't work:(
