I miss my Avatar

Post Reply New Topic

My avatar stopped working a while ago. i noticed other people have the same problem. I'm not to sure what i did to make it stop working but is there any way to fix it or is it possible to fix.
i try new avatar pictures and even the ones from this site but it always comes up

sorry if this isn't the right place for this topic...

does anybody know whats wrong or how to fix it?

I don't know what the problem could be.

I've had the same problem for some time. I can't even get rid of the white box with the red x inside.

raph and jacob, the photo or image you want to upload, is it at or smaller then 140 pixels horizontally and vertically??? (if not it needs to be resized) is it something other then .gif,.bmp, .jpg??? also has to be at or less then 15.77 Kb in size

to resize the image or graphic open it with a photo editor or microsoft paint and then click on image and then select skew/stretch and then make it half its size it shows in image box and then click ok, then go back to image menu then click on attributes and make sure its at or less then 140 in both feilds, if it is click save and then go to your profile on wrongplanet and then click on edit profile, then to avator then clck on upload from machine and then when the pictures folder opens, select a photo, click open and boom it should be in the avator space, click save and then go to a recent post that you made, (to test if it worked)

sorry that i didnt cover instructions on mac and linux os's but there should be some photo editing software in both os'es that can be used in place of paint but anyway, instructions are basically same method for those.

good luck raph and jacob

Thank you doordoctor, that helped me out.

thanks for the help .. the problem with mine is i tried that. right now this is my avatar right now. its one of the ones offered by wrongplanet. for some reason it won't let me try to put my own avatar up and no avatar will show... no matter what size it is it doesn't show up and now i can't even try to upload them for some reason. I think i messed something up with my account

your welcome jacob, raph, tryed doing disc cleanup and defrag or scandisk of your machine, and deleteing temporary internet files on your machine??? try that, maybe its cookies or maybe something corrupted on your harddrive. good luck raph, try these suggestions above

avatar fixed. you may now choose any avatar you like (if it meets the guidelines)

YAY! thanks everyone for your help. thanks alex. (and doordoctor for sticking it out with me)

your welcome raph, glad i was able to help!
