Hi all,
Can someone please help me. I keep trying to change my avatar, but keep getting 'not a valid file extension' error message, even though i resize the pic to avatar size on photobucket. Then if i try and use a piccie from my own album on my pc im not able to do that either. Im not sure how to resize the pics on my pc, and its driving me nuts!!!! Please help
Mant thanks
Caroline

well it needs to be a gif .jpeg .jpg .swf .png

and a maximum of 64 pixels by 64 pixels and 20kb if you are uploading from your pc
- if you are linking then it should resize it for you -

post the link to your avatar here and i'll see if i can help?

Hi Caroline,

Hmmm... the ? shows the right url for your image - maybe it is a photobucket problem...

if you can't sort it tomorrow i'll host it on my server and send you a link, that might work -

enjoy your night shift!
