    Image for my avatar

    3.jpgThis is getting annoying. Why am I not able to put a picture on my avatar. I have been trying for a week. "Unable to download image" it says. I can put images when posting on a thread. Help

    The image must be sized no larger than 80 by 80 pixels or 19.5 KB, whichever is largest. Your image is 100KB.

    You can use your computer's photo editing software, or there are several "make it small" sites on the web to help.

    Yes, but it looks like there’s a server-side issue at the moment. I’m unable to upload a correctly sized image, not even via URL upload.
