The pic needs to be 100x100 pixels or close to it for an avatar according to the head geeks instructions here http://www.finsandfur.net/forums/index.php?topic=1886.msg17979#msg17979   and yours is now 341x536.  Do you want me to play with it and send it back or are you going to make it smaller?

Have you tried saving it to your computer, and use the I will upload my own picture and browse option.  I've never had any problems uploading straight from the computer.


Here's the original size of the photo I'm using at the moment.

245x269 good going silencer.  I'm sure glad another geek has stepped in here.

I was gonna try hers just to see if it worked.. :)


It does, follow the instructions in my previous post, it will work fer ya that way.


Figured out something else, if you link it to your photobucket account, use this exact link http://i331.photobucket.com/albums/l466/mandi_nascar09/sketch004.jpg   without the [ img ]..[ /img ]
I think thats the problem with the link you provided from photobucket. 

Hope this helps, nice picture btw...

Mandi, welcome to the board.
The permissions to be able to upload your own avatar kick in automatically after 25 posts. We have it set up that way to slow down freaks, perverts, spammers etc, from joining and uploading something invasive or obscene.

So I pulled the pic from the url you posted up there and put your avatar in place for you.

Mandi,

Welcome to FnF.  But I have to ask, are you sure you want to be here?  Just kidding, there are some great people here and it becomes sort of family after awhile.  Email me and I will send you a warning of the ones to watch out for.  That Hawk something or other is one of the worst.   :biggrin:  Glad to see you posting and have fun hunting.

Jerry
