Post Avatar help!
I'm getting really discouraged, because everytime I try to pick an avatar, it tells me its too big. Now, these avatars I'm looking at are sometimes half the size of other avatars on here. Why is it doing this if those went through?

You have to upload it from OFFSITE.

Go to a website, fing the pic you want, right click, click properties, copy it, go to your profile and paste it in the "link to offsite avatar"...or something similar.


If that dosent work, get a picture/avatar you want, save it to your computer, go to imageshack, host it, then copy the link it gives you into your profile

Neither one worked :(

I tried the second thing and it said it couldn't make a connection to the URL.

If you have further trouble feel free to PM me and I'll do what I can to help. It was confusing to me at first too as to how to do the avatar thing.

I put my question here cause i dont want to open the thousands pic thread or so..

Does my Avatar Bat gif work? In other Forums i have a red X. I used first time Imageshack so im not sure. Posting red X is annoying and sucks for other board member. Thats the reason I ask.
