I uploaded my Avatar AOK but there is no "custom" selection from the drop down box. Does it HAVE to be a GIF, since the profile page says it can be either GIF or JPG?

Okay, so the avatar has to be a gif. Oh well, I uploaded a jpg. Too bad, my avatar was pretty cool.

Kymera, you can still upload your GIF. I made the same mistake and reuploaded my avatar as a gif and it works great.

Am I missing something? I uploaded successfully, but there is no "custom" dropdown menu. Is that because I've never used a custom avatar before? Does it take time to update for that reason?

This is what it will say after a successful upload just below the regular Avatars, the click on the drop down menu and select custom.

There isn't a custom drop down menu. If your avatar downloaded properly, you need to choose the item CUSTOM from the same list where you selected Dogbert.Quote:

Those programs are useless. Without a doubt, www.irfanview.com is the best image viewer/editor out there. Opens just about any image type known to man, crops, change colour depth, rotate, contrast, brightness, etc. etc. AND IT'S FREEWARE AND ONLY 400K. I have been using it since 1995 and it just keeps getting better.Quote:

I'll agree with the Big Mac. It's a great little program, although it might be a bit bigger than 400K. When everyone keeps saying upload, where are they uploading these things to?Quote:
