Post by Joey1987 »

I'm sucha dick, i know. can't work out how to get a picture of my car to come up. dat's why i have dat little green dude.

Can some one tell me how to make it work? i think i know but it just isn't working.

when ya go into profile do you clink on the little browse button (Upload Avatar from your machine) then select the pic you wnat. coz that's what i'm doing but i doesnt work.

You need to have a small image, if you're just trying to upload a photo it wont work as it'll be too big (dimension wise as well as storage wise - there's a limit).

Mine is as big as they allow 120pixels wide, 90 high... and less then 6kb.

If you don't know how to resize an image you could look at: http://www.ftoaustralia.com/modules.php ... pic&t=9643

Failing that you could always email it to someone whom could resize it and email it back (or msn).

Alternatively google will teach you just about all you need to know about resizing images (:

The upload avatar thing doesn't actually work here :oops:

You will have to host the pic on www.imagechack.us or similar and copy the "direct link" and put it in the "Link to offsite avatar" box.
LED ALL the things.
