MindCrime Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 I can't change my avatar, no matter how hard I try. Has a limit been placed, or am I just forever banned from using this feature, I could see why LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jman14141414 Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 I think you have to link it to a site, rather than uploading it from your computer, at least that's what worked for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillianne Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Same happened to me! you need to save the pic to your pc then upload it AGAIN at say here and link it! Hope it works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 I'm not sure what's going on with the avatars. In the past the problem usually has been that you need to delete the cache on your computer, but that doesn't seem to be working. I'll have to look into the problem. For now, the link suggestion mentioned above does work - and it saves us a little bandwidth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addictedtoclassic Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 I tried to upload a new one, but instead my current one got expanded to the same size as the one I was trying to upload. Now the picture looks funny. Sara, I don't suppose you could restore my avatar to what it was previously? I'll try the linking thing later on when I get some time.

MindCrime Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Hey Chris, I followed Jill's advice & just uploaded a pic to my PhotoBucket account & then linked directly to that image. A bit more manual, but it works fine now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 I finally figured out the problem and it's all fixed. When we switched to the new server the permissions on the folder where the avatars are stored defaulted to read only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addictedtoclassic Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 I tried to change mine today, but so far it just resized my current one to the size of the new one. Same problem I had before. Maybe I'm just not being patient enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Nope, not your fault. Sorry, I spoke too soon! The problem is the permissions but it appears that my setting changes won't go through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted January 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 You do a good job here, so many settings to adjust, it's hard to keep track with every little adjustment. Thanks for fixing the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addictedtoclassic Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Did the avatar thing get resolved yet? I tried to do the direct link to an image server and I still end up with the same avatar as before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 We're getting close on this one. It's a funky setting somewhere, but we've almost got it figured out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 The Avatar problem should be fixed. I'm saving the banana for our server fix, but this gets a drummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhul Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 I havn't had a pic up ever. How do I get an avatar pic up?. I've tried, but it won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_jr_ Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 You've got to make sure it's small enough, bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhul Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 You've got to make sure it's small enough, bud. How small?. It's only 27 kb's. If it has to be small, then how does Batman have a video in his avatar?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
