why can't i upload a pic for my avatar? i've already tried scaling the pic to 90x90 pixels still the error messages shows up... can anyone please help me??? thanks

That's rough, homie. Make sure it's the right file type (jpeg?, gif?) and not anything else...

I have had the exact same problem. My picture was the right format, size and everything, but it made me use one of the forum's avatars. Oh well, guess you can't have it all.

if u still have this problem u can try uploading the avatar image on the web (tinypic.com lets u do this) and u can link the photo from there--since it gives u the option of either uploading an avatar or linking one.

thanks... i'll gonna try that one...

yay it worked!!! thanks dude!!!

THE BEST WAY FOR ME IS USE THE HTTP THE UPLOAD FROM COMPUTER ALWAYS DOES NOT WORK FOR ME OH WELL

Same prob here!

what do u need for an avatar? Can u use any pick or what?

Correct, just upload pic to photobucket and put in the url and it does work!!
Yes homie you can use any pic or animated gif that you'd like. peace

No prob
