It's all about the compression software you're running on your PC. Try to save it as a .gif and see if the website will accept that. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Also, I thought we had to have 100 posts before we were allowed to have our own custom avatar not from the given list. Did they change that rule?

What Format it the picture in? You could try Loading it into Paint and clicking Save-as and save it as a jpeg or other file that might be more compressed.

Sorry to hijack your thread but it always takes me forever to get my avatar to work so if you can shrink it to its proper size it would save me alot of time

thanks
