Can't upload an avatar

Post by C-K'R[PhoEniX] »

I've tried gif and jpg, 75x75 or less image sizes and I keep getting the "Invalid File" message. Anyone else here not able to change their avatars?

Same problem here. Can't even upload a picture.

I too have this problem, but I hope it's only temporary. I think there is some sort of maintanence going on (atleast I got the message once when I surfed to this place).

We upgraded our server on Friday, though I'm not sure if it's related to this problem. Can anyone confirm that avatar uploads have only stopped working since the upgrade?

Sorry, I can only confirm it isn't working now.

[edit]Oh wait it is. See my avater? It just gives a message that the upload fails. It's still uploaded. It seems to have been properly resized as well.

Good to hear. I also had to fix the captcha verification here on the forums, so fixing that might have also cleared up the avatar upload issue.
