ryansgirl319 Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 I tried changing my avatar, but it keeps going back to an old avatar that I had a while back. I've never had this happen before? Is there a reason for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 I'm seeing a red blob with a face - is that what you just put up? It may be that your old avatar is cached on your computer. Try emptying your cache and clearing out the temporary internet files. Let me know if that takes care of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Mine does that too, if I don't link to an external site. I've even changed computers since I had the 'fever' avatar, yet it comes back if I try to upload one from my computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to put up an R.E.M. album cover. I clean out my temporary internet files every day, and I don't even have the pic I have now on my computer.

_jr_ Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 Get yourself a Barnabas avatar, and stay with it. Works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 Oh, I just thought of something...make sure the file is smaller than 6k. It won't accept anythng larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryansgirl319 Posted March 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 It's not the size of the pic. I get some permission denied message. It's just a pic of an R.E.M. album cover, and I have never had this problem before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent you a PM with an address, if you send me the image you are trying to uplad as your avatar I would be happy to help you. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryansgirl319 Posted March 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Thanks Mike, but I changed to another, similar pic, and I got the same message but the pic took and is my avatar now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Sorry, I'm not sure what the problem was. I'm glad you able to get it changed finally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Thanks Mike, but I changed to another, similar pic, and I got the same message but the pic took and is my avatar now. Cool, glad you got it figured out. My daughter is going to teach me how to make "stuff" with PhotoShop 7.0?, she just made me my current Avatar, I asked her if she could incorporate an eclipesing moon gif I had (12 frames) into the Pink Floyd Pulse Cover photo along with the spectrum colors pulse graphic at the bottom and my internet "handle" at the top. I think it came out very nice. I can't wait to learn how to do this. Make animated gifs with image ready. By the way there are several online tutorials for this as well. Cool huh?

Steel2Velvet Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I've been trying to change my avatar as well. The image is under 80 X 80 and file size under 6K, but I keep getting this message: Warning: copy(/Users/songfact/Sites/songfacts/ubbthreads/userimages/29065.jpg): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /Users/songfact/Sites/songfacts/ubbthreads/changebasic.php on line 216 What do I do to change my avatar?

josef Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Or you can make your own like I did and then save to a small gif file like less than 6K like Sara Explained. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
