Does anyone also trouble avatars images? Everytime i try to upload it shows the first on list of offered avatars by the site. I think it went through because it asked me resize my image, but I shrank the pic I can't get anything?
Are there any specific type of image file for me to use, or time delay for the image ot assigned to my profile?

I had trouble uploading my avatar also. I eventually just put it on my webspace and then linked to it.
Try that out and see if it solves your problem.

You should head over to mtgnews.com if you want a customized avatar. There's a section there, in their boards, where graphic artist fanatics will make you your own customized avatar. When I used to post there, this guy gave me a sweet animated avatar, (trust me it was GOOD!!!)

The character in my avatar is actually a Domokun, and is most famous for his appearance in the "Everytime you masturbate, God kills a kitten - Please, think of the kittens" pic, which is the pic I used.
My avatar was actually the first thing i did with the brand new PhotoShop 7.0 :wings

I have not cracked the code yet. I do not have a web site to download from yet. I can attach to one if I have to. I have tried several times without any luck. I am attemting custom artwork and have it in less than 50x50 p's and tiny. Should I just post a one pic dot and see if that uploads? Any ideas.

I love these smiles and the choice of avatars, could do witha bit more choice. I wish CC would put some on my home forum, cheer the place up a bit :fire
BTW what happend to the previous posts I did last year and how come I'm shown as registering in April of this year, when in fact it was sometime last year. I though they were going to transfer the personal information from the old board.

You can suggest this to CC, I would like some new smilies too! :bling
About the old forum, Jorge is working on the transfer... I hope he will manage it!

It seems that my logic was a bit flawed. In custon avatar options I was pressing the custon avatar button and then useing the browse option to choose my tiny picture. I finally tryed the reverse and
it worked like magic

So do you really need 15 posts before you can
upload an avatar?

and see if the custom avatar option is visable. If it is proceed.

Yep...it took 15 posts to get it up.
So how do you get a custom title under your name?
Does it have to do with number of posts like other places?
Thanks.
