For some reason it's not letting me upload an avatar, i resized the pic on photobucket to avatar size and it's still not letting me. Can someone please help me?

Is it giving you an error message? If so, what message?

"You are not allowed to upload that type of file as an avatar or personal photo."

What is the photo you are trying to upload and what kind of file extension is it? .jpg .gif .bmp?

It's an IMG

actually the file name is "sonofbeast.jpg" its a .jpg extension file. What you could do is right click it, save it to your computer then upload it via the upload buttong. If you're trying to do it by link you don't use the tags like you do in an html post out here on the boards, you just insert the link. To get the link right click the image and click "copy image source" is what I think it is for windows. On my mac it's "copy image address". Then go to your avatar options and in the box where it says "enter URL" put this link there...

Then click upload, that should work.
