how to add an avatar?

Postby amber619pop » Tue Apr 19, 2011 7:47 am

I keep putting the URL in the blank space but it says the url is invalid every time no matter how I do it. Any reason for this? The dimension is within limits..

What URL are you putting in there? If it's an avatar, I believe that it must end in .gif, .jpg or .png.

You could also try re-uploading it to somewhere like imageshack and see if it works then.

Imageshack made it a long process to hotlink(or direct link) unless your signed in, you need that link in order for it to work. If you have a link that ends something like ".gif/" then it won't work, it must end ".gif".

There is still a way to hotlink from imageshack without logging in, it's just a bit tedious.

T3HM3T4L:I've tried to sign up for Rock Band but they just won't allow me. They keep complaining I have to 'be over 18' while I've already been 18 for over half a year, and a sign up where I noted I was born in the '50s STILL GAVE ME THAT MESSAGE

So if anyone could help me get these templates, I'd very much appreciate it. I need it to edit notes and stuff for my Rock Band 2.

aander91:Sorry, but that'd be providing for minors, which is illegal.

T3HM3T4L:But I'm 18 years old... ?

aander91:Nope. Sorry.

T3HM3T4L:Nono, you're getting me wrong, I was asking how come I am still considered a minor?

aander91:Look, we can't just go out giving these things away to people who just say they're over 18 and show no proof, we'd be out of a job.

T3HM3T4L:Nevermind, I'll use EoF for it, I found the way I could use it for that.
