Joe Six Gun Posted November 20, 2016 at 06:06 PM Share Posted November 20, 2016 at 06:06 PM I select the photo for my avatar, the site sees it, but nothing changes. What am I doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InterestedBystander Posted November 20, 2016 at 08:21 PM Share Posted November 20, 2016 at 08:21 PM I could be wrong, but seem to recall some having success with hosting the image off site and then pointing to the hosted url. Luckily things were working on the board when I signed up. Also png files have been reported as more successful than jpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbacs Posted November 21, 2016 at 04:57 PM Share Posted November 21, 2016 at 04:57 PM Check your PM'sI worked with Mauserme before and he got my avatar up and running.He says he sent you a PM in the above post.Usually him or MollyB can handle avatars at least, I would flood them with post pictures.I use photobucket now, since the last upgrade here and the pics stopped working for most.Copy paste and it works for all pics I attempt to post here. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCC Posted November 21, 2016 at 06:24 PM Share Posted November 21, 2016 at 06:24 PM Why is this so much more difficult than other forum sites ??many of us technically challenged are using the same avatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Core features are functional afaik and the other nuances will hopefully get addressed in the next site upgrade which has been mentioned. Maybe someone from admin/staff can speak to plans and schedules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyGirl Posted December 2, 2016 at 06:08 PM Share Posted December 2, 2016 at 06:08 PM Good, I thought it was just me. I joined yesterday and changing the avatar is a no-go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glock23 Posted December 2, 2016 at 06:25 PM Share Posted December 2, 2016 at 06:25 PM Good, I thought it was just me. I joined yesterday and changing the avatar is a no-go. If I recall correctly, the only way I got mine to upload to my profile was to first convert it to a .PNG file... Beyond that, I don't recall if it let me just upload it, or if I had to host it somewhere and link to the URL. I'd recommend you give the PNG a try, though.

Maybe someone from admin/staff can speak to plans and schedules. It's on the roadmap to upgrade. But timing has been an issue due to a variety of reasons. We will get there; just ask for continued patience... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
