Is anyone else having trouble changing avatars? I don't usually have this much trouble...but every picture I try is "too large". I resize them to 180 pixels or less, save as an optimized gif, jpg,bmp or even "save for web". I tried adjusting the pic on Photoshop, Lunapic and Ifranview. I even made them really tiny and tried! Can anyone help me? What am I doing wrong? I managed to do this with relatively few problems before...

I haven't tried, but I have heard of a few people having this same issue. Can't remember what threads they were in though.

I have not tried changing my avatar at this site for quite a while, so I don't know if I have a problem. It sounds like you have tried all the options and now that this topic has been brought up in this area hopefully Cep will see it and be able to let you know if it is a board error. Like Amethyst says there have been a few problems with images and pictures on this board for several years now, ever since Cep started making a changes to the site.

I was the one having trouble changing my avatar. Cep is looking into it.

Oh, ok...I guess I missed that before...thanks for letting me know! I'm glad it wasn't just user error!

Cep put my new avatar up for me... but it's in the general profile section. When I switched to it I lost the one I previously had (that had been uploaded). So it looks like for now there will be no avatar changes, unless you want one of the pre-selected one.
