Hey, I was just wondering if anyone could clarify something for me. I was trying to update my avatar and I'm having some issues. Now, I may be wrong but I thought that if you uploaded a file it would automatically resize and de-color the image. I selected the desired photo file but apparently this displeases the sleuth avatar systems that be. It says that the avatar is saved but it will not update. Does it have to be approved? Am I using the wrong file type? Am I losing it? Perhaps...

Never mind... I have been soundly educated in the matters of posting before you think.

there's a bit of lag on the server sometimes.

Yeah I found that out about ten minutes after I uploaded the file :). Well, now I know.

I take it this is the pic you were trying to get uploaded? Looks good to me. ;-)

One thing I have seen mentioned in the Boards that's not mentioned in the instructions is the particular way you choose to name your file. For some reason, the system doesn't seem to like (I think) numbers in the file name. Could be letters, but my swiss-cheese of a brain-box seems to recall it's numbers. (I'm the World's Worst Programmer, but it is mentioned in a couple other threads. You might go do a search and double-check, for next time you want to save a pic for an avatar. ;-)

Anyway, glad you got it solved. ;-)
