Hi Chucky

First up.............

GREAT JOB  :D

I've been entering all the stuff in my profile and it is accepting everything except my avatar.  I have tried both the using my own URL method and the upload method and when I hit save it just goes back to the same screen without the pic.

Any suggestions ?

:)

This software is very picky about pixel size.  It wants the pixels to be only 100 by 100. 

AVATAR NAZI!
If you use one pixel more, no avatar for you!

It worked for me must be a 100X100 (maximum) JPG or other image format.

Test...test...this is only a test.  If this had been an actual emergency, you would have been instructed when and how to panic.

Dosh garn it...my picture and caption and so on aren't working either - and my lunch hour's over.  I'll have to fix the darn thing tonight.

And now it's fixed.  What is a damn Wheezy anyway?

Aha...thanks about the avatar...I had been having trouble too.

I've modified how avatars are handled.  Oversized avatars are now auto-magically resized to meet the requirements now.  It should make things much easier for everyone.
