So, I am at a loss as to why we need to have an avatar if we don't want to... I'm guessing its to stop people spamming posts... Fair enough. The problem is that I have been trying a few different random pictures that are within the restrictions (100x100 pixels//small size) but it always has an upload error. If anybody has any suggestions for this, I would love to hear them

Make sure your avatar meets the following specifications Quote: Current image: Maximum dimensions; width: 100 pixels, height: 100 pixels, file size: 107kB. JPEG/JPG files are ok. bmp for instance not. Idk about other extensions.

Quote: o and im also like, whats with a newly joined, 1 post member talking about the need to have an avatar? T_T haha... I was stupid, when i originally posted this, I thought that you had to have an avatar to reply... I guess its just to post new topics. Man I can be a 'tard sometimes. Anyway, I was just wondering about that, as the images i was using, I would copy the image/location, it would be a jpg, etc. But it wasn't working. Ty for the clarification  EDIT: never mind... I am talking about the need to have an avatar because i CAN NOT post without one, it refuses to let me

No no here is the problem... I tried a bunch of different pictures, all way smaller than 100x100, jpg, jpeg, whatever else... none of them worked, that is the problem.

Fena I have no problem with having an avatar, I want to have one, but it WON'T LET ME UPLOAD AN IMAGE, even if I provide the image AND location..... That is why I don't want to have to get one, because i CAN'T.

OK... So, here is the deal. (one more problem) I have the avatar up for my account (as you can see) but it still won't let me post. It said to post here if I have this problem?
