I am having a problem changing my avatar. It gives me an error message about the file cannot be found. So I tried to put my original one back up, and got the same message. I am using photobucket, and did not have any problems with the last two. Any suggestions?

Yep - as memtioned elsewhere, we are changing IP addresses. This impacts on the abiity for me to get through the server firewall - I'll get it fixed shortly.

OK, IPs should all be sorted now. Avatars are working again.

Great. Noticed a lot of new avatars. Mine still will not load. I get an error message that it is too big. I re-sized it, but still get the message. I know, I am nothing but trouble, but I so wanted to change it. Is there something I am doing wrong?

By the sounds of your description, what you need to do is shrink the size of your avatar.
Just a guess. Considering the message is that it's too big.

Already tried that. It is smaller than the old one. Still no go. I am always open to more suggestions.

Here is the link to the picture. I am pretty sure I did everything right. It is not even as big as the one I have now, I do not think. Thanks for whatever you can do.

That's 100 by 104 pixels. The max is 100x100 and is coded into the site.
(Might sound a bit anal, but we can't keep changing the code to accommodate individual avatars.)
Just shrink it to 100 by 100.

I will try that. It was supposed to be 100x100. That is what my printshop said, so maybe it is off. I knew about the limit. I will just try to re-size it. Thanks.
And by the way, if you can find it in your heart to forgive my worthless sense of humor, I would not mind seeing my posts in the story of the day again. I promise not to make anymore comments concerning things I realize are out of your control. But I really was sincerely concerned that someone could be offended. So, I bite the bitter pill and apologize. One the other hand, I understand otherwise.
