I have tried 3 times to post a pic to this thing and it doesn't seem to go through. Who is controling it or stopping it. My last one was 50X52 and tini...................................what gives?

If you're trying to attach an avatar, is it in GIF format? You've successfully attached other photos in the "painting" thread, so I assume you're having trouble with your avatar? I think the avatars have to be in GIF format.

It's a gif.

Hmmmm. I think Doug is going to have to help with this. I don't know the other limitations, since it seems that you've got the correct size. Wish I could help, but I obviously don't know enough. :(

OK - just for kicks, try making it 50x50 pixels. Seems like most others are that size or smaller. -Jeanie

yeah I think that is likely the problem. I tried uploading my new avatar and it didn't work, then I realized it wasn't 50x50 pixels like it said. I resized it then it worked just fine. as long as its 50x50 or less and under 2k then you shouldnt have any problems. also, file type shouldn't be an issue - mines a jpeg and it works.

Yep, I think the file limit to 50x50 is very STRICT -- I didn't mind much since it made my face very tiny...

David, I'd noticed your new avatar -- your own face, perhaps??, and was looking for the proper thread to mention it -- Hello!!:)

Hi CJ, yup, its me in there! it's from my learners license because it was the most recent pic I could find around (I just cropped it, did a mask, put in a background and resized it). its not exactly a great photo, so I'll have to look around for something better to use as an avatar soon.
