Photobucket Avatar problem solved
« on: Nov 11, 2011, 06:38 AM »
Spent the last two days trying to get my avatar to work, it kept coming up as picture moved or deleted. I tried re-uploading resizing all the different picture links, always no avatar. Well today I tried a different picture in my photobucket account, this picture was in my main album and the others were in a sub-album to that one. It turns out that the picture your trying to use for the avatar must be in your main album NOT A SUB-ALBUM. ???

the album issue is correct. also, resizing is important. 120x120 maximum! also, click on direct link, not IMG Code, and remove what's in the box (http:) before pasting.

FJ - Are you sure your avatar picture is in the main album on photobucket? Also if you move or rename the picture you need to redo the direct link to it. As mentioned above the size of the file is also important.

here it is, start to finish.

1. put the arrow over the RESIZED picture.
2. move the arrow over to the box to the right of Direct Link.
3. left click in the box, it will say copied.
4. go to profile and clear out the avatar box of anything.
5. right click and paste into the box
6. scroll down and click on save.

that should do it.

Are you using photobucket? If so make sure the picture is sized right, and it has to be in the main folder of your photobucket account.

 I am having a problem with putting pictures in my signatures. I am using my photobucket account and posting the image code in the signature box but I keep getting an error. Does the signature photo have to be a certain size? What should I do?
