Avatar/Profile Pic Issue
« on: September 17, 2018, 02:32:30 PM »
I went to change my Avatar/Profile Picture and all I get is error.  I've  scaled my image down to 125 x 125 and have even tried a smaller size, as well as using both jpeg and png format.  The server just gives me an error when trying to upload.

In the process, it wiped out my old profile pic, so now I'm stuck with nothing.  Completely uncool, SMF.

That would put you in the same category as pedophile perverts like John Davis, NSS, robots like Stash, Shifter, and victimized kids like Alexey.

As a workaround you could try using a link to an image of your avatar.

The forum is set to do security checks on uploaded avatars. I don't know where you are uploading from, but that might be the problem.

I'm sorry. Am I to understand that when you have a boner you like to imagine punching the shit out of Tom Bishop? That's disgusting.

I tried that.  The image is too large.  It has to be edited.

I uploaded my previous profile pic from my computer which I resized exactly as I did with this one.  Don't know why it isn't working now.

I checked the avatar settings, and you're right about 125x125. How big is the file size, tho?

5kb

However I tried a test avatar that was 60 x 60 that was only 2kb and it still didn't work.

If you host the image somewhere and then post it here, I can try to do it for you.
