Blake Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Decided to finally get an avatar, but when I try to import a picture, it says it failed. It's a jpeg. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 If it doesn't say something like "Illegal File Extension" the jpeg isn't the problem. The size limits are 50 KB and 150x150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size limits are 50 KB and 150x150The exact words are "Failed to set a new photo". It may be the size. I figured it would just shrink the photo for me like EVERY OTHER FORUM I USE.

David Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Yeah, it should do it automatically. You should post the image here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I did it through the Admin CP and it worked fine, so... Dunno. I did change one setting though. You should try to re-do it via your CP and let me know if it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric the Bard Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I seem to be unable to add an avatar aswell... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 It should be giving you a specific error or reason. What is it saying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric the Bard Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 When I tried using URL it didn't give me an error message, though the red error bar popped up with no error in it. When I tried uploading it, it said "Failed to set new photo" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Post the photo, I'll just do it manually. It will also allow me to check against the reqs, which might be needlessly strict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Oh yeah. I actually had a problem, but I figured out I was doing something wrong. I forgot what I was doing wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 If that was the same URL, it probably wasn't letting you because it's hosted on another site that would probably be upset with the bandwidth usage.EDIT: I lied. It's some settings issue, I'll get it worked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric the Bard Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Well, I tried downloading it and uploading it aswell, but it still wouldn't let me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 I uploaded it, so you at least have an avatar now. Wasn't sure if you wanted a close up of the first guy's face or if you wanted the whole shot (which would shrink it a lot so it may not even be visible). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric the Bard Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Yessss!! I noticed that I suddenly got an avatar when I was updating my page. I guess it is okay this way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
