SamuiRes Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I have tried to change my Avatar by uploading from my PC. I have tried removing the existing Avatar first. It simply refuses to change and the existing one keeps coming back. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totster Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) I have tried to change my Avatar by uploading from my PC. I have tried removing the existing Avatar first. It simply refuses to change and the existing one keeps coming back. Any ideas? It could be the avatar is too large to be uploaded.. If it is larger than 50kb the thing to do is upload it to a free image hosting site and link the avatar from there, using the field marked "Enter a URL to an online avatar image" Also the avatar must be no larger than 90x90. If it is, it can be resized by entering the dimensions (90x90 or smaller) in the boxes just above the "update avatar" button totster Edited February 2, 2006 by Totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Size was 13.4 KB and I changed the dimensions to 90x90. Would not take it and kept replacing the old avatar even after I deleted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdnvic Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 This one is showing. Your ISPs proxy may be storing the old one, it'll clear up in an hour or two normally. cv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingDutchman Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I bet if you upload your file to : Http://www.imageshack.us/ and you take the lowest link and put it in the avatar link row, it might work out jùst fine. I guess ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdnvic Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 It IS what everyone else sees as your avatar. Your ISP doesn't update their proxy very often. This is an old trick that probably doesn't work anymore but try holding the SHIFT button and reloading the page. cv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
