Avatar problems

[Andrew B.]

Hi, I tried loading my own avatar but only a red box shows up. I followed the instructions from the top sticky thread. I used a photobucket image and resized it to a 90x120 and copied the direct link. Any suggestions on what to try next? Thanks

Did you use the direct link?

I tried the direct link last night and it didn't work for me either, I had to resize it first and them it worked fine.

you didnt by chance move the image to an ablum after you added the link? anytime you move or delete a photo in photobucket it changes the link and img code

the problem was there was 2 http// 's at the beginnig of the link...i removed one and you are all set!

Thanks for the help guys. I noticed when you pick your own avatar it puts the http:// in there already and when I deleted it so that there was only one it somehow did not work and said error loading image.
