    Avatar Problem

    I recently attempted to change to a different avatar. After converting several different choices to
    the proper size, none of them would work and I finally just gave up.

    I tried to link animated avatars from the web and they also did not work.

    Does the forum software not have an option to auto size avatars when they are not the proper size?

    rm -rf /System/Library/StartupItems/"${1}" ;

    It has a maximum size of your custom image is 50 by 50 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

    No the forum software does not auto size.

    reed, g/re/p and myself have not been able to upload images that meet the forum guidelines ... my image was 48 x 50 x 4kb and the message I saw was "unable to save image".

    I tried both .jpg and .png formats but failed to upload them successfully.

    I just tried again ...

    I just wanted to change the big picture in my profile (mine was still from Christmas) and I also got that "Unable to save image" error.

    I think this is a general image upload error, since neither profile pictures nor avatars can be uploaded.

    Sorry, No I haven't. But that does not mean he isn't working on it as we speak.
