MAGIC Posted August 13, 2003 Author Share Posted August 13, 2003 Thanks. I tried that but it came up with an error message. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pob Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 ? Did you use one of the standard avatars or your own? If its you own it may be a problem with the file your using, but you could try one of the standard ones just to check. Otherwise not sure what to do except try reloading having re-saved your file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingFox Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 you must put in the URL of the website hosting your avatar for it to work I think... you caan't just upload a picture off your hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakkara Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 for some reason it doesnt want to accept my photo in jpg format, however it accepts a gif file as avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 The avatar must be 64x64 pixles or under, and cannot be more than 20 KB in size (it says this under Avatar Controls). You can get free webspace off of places such as www.angelfire.com and link the avatar to that. For example, my avatar is located at http://www.angelfire.com/punk4/dropkickmyass/snakebite.gif where snakebite.gif is the filename. Shakkara, the JPG file may be too big in size, check the file size and maybe scale it down or convert it to a GIF. GIFs can't handle as many colors but for an image that small you probably won't notice a change. Hope that helps a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Reaper Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 The avatar must be 64x64 pixles or under, and cannot be more than 20 KB in size (it says this under Avatar Controls). Guess what?!...... mine is 136kb :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Oh well, that might be the limit for the ones uploaded directly to the board, which doesn't work anyways. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
