Whitedog Posted April 2, 2018 at 03:45 PM Share Posted April 2, 2018 at 03:45 PM I can't seem to get a profile picture to upload. I'm selecting a custom picture and can find it on my computer, I can select the picture, but it will not upload. I've tried several pictures. Any help would be appreciated.

InterestedBystander Posted April 2, 2018 at 03:52 PM Share Posted April 2, 2018 at 03:52 PM Used to work but board is a bit old and cranky. Try hosting off board or give mauserme a PM (or do a search) as he has resolved for others iirc but dont recall his posting of solution. Some have better success with different browsers, file formats or file sizes. Unfortunately it does not seem consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scipio24 Posted April 2, 2018 at 06:17 PM Share Posted April 2, 2018 at 06:17 PM I used this site: http://picr.de/ It's in German, and I have no idea what it says, lol, but you can upload a photo for free without an account. Here at IC, in your profile, set the picture to the URL that the site provided after uploading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euler Posted April 2, 2018 at 07:33 PM Share Posted April 2, 2018 at 07:33 PM tinypic is in English. It's operated by Photobucket. It also doesn't require an account to upload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitedog Posted April 3, 2018 at 04:10 PM Author Share Posted April 3, 2018 at 04:10 PM Thanks for the ideas. I've since tried the German host, but can't read German so I had no idea what to do. Then I opened a photobucket account and still haven't been able to get it done. But I will keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euler Posted April 3, 2018 at 07:07 PM Share Posted April 3, 2018 at 07:07 PM ... I opened a photobucket account and still haven't been able to get it done. But I will keep trying. Just because tinypic is run by Photobucket doesn't mean you need a Photobucket account. tinypic is anonymous. To import the image to IllinoisCarry, you need to supply the URL of the image itself, not a URL to a page with the image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitedog Posted April 5, 2018 at 01:58 PM Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 at 01:58 PM I got it!!! Thanks everyone for all of your help. I'm pretty sure I was trying to use the URL to the page. Once I copied the image location, it imported just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
