Same here. It does allow you to use one from another website though.

Problem solved! It was a quick fix. I just tested it, and was able to upload one.

Let me know if you have any more problems.

Cheers,

ERIC

I'll work on my avatar next week! :grin:

I posted a couple of trips, but on my way out. Glad to see this board up. I sent a few messages out so hopefully people will check in!

Thanks!

I am now getting this error message when I try to upload an avatar from a URL (maybe my file is too large?):

Unable to upload file

DEBUG MODE

Line : 249
File : usercp_avatar.php

It works fine when I use the same URL to link to an offsite avatar like hikinmike says, so I just did it that way

You got the pixel dimensions right, but I'm pretty sure the error was caused by the file size being too large. To test this theory, I have increased the file size alloud and need you to try to upload again to see if the change I made helps. I've reset the maximum to 50kb. No 80X80 avatar needs to be anywhere near that large or larger... If you have one that is, please email it to me and I'll help you out. eric **at** highsierratopix **dot** com.

Thanks eric. I tried again and got this message

My file is 80x80 and 3-4kb (http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~cope/photo/avatar-2.jpg ). I can upload it fine from my computer using the browse, but its when I try to upload it through a url link that I get this message.

Hmmmm..... Ok, I'm going to have to look into that one. Keep checking this thread for more info. In the meantime, people are probably just going to have to do what you did; save the pic to their computer and then upload it from there...
