Avatars ... again.

[Freddie von Rost]

I know that on the whole computers and I lead a love / hate relationship but can somebody please tell me how on earth I can add an avatar to my profile.

I read all the previous avatar help posts and I am still confused.

Even when I find a gif image such as: http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n314/FreddievonRost/jaglogo1.gif the profile update page refuses to load it. Mesaage reads: Either not an avatar or too large.

Help

.......... Mesaage reads: Either not an avatar or too large.

I think there is a clue there   

Resize your pic before uploading to photobucket.

My avatar is 114 high by 200 wide (pixels)

499 by 241 is a big on the biggish side indeed. Try the logo I attached for you, upload that to photobucket.

[Freddie von Rost]

Thank you both. Managed to work it out and my avatar is now in place.

Very nice!  Well done........

[Freddie von Rost]

Thank you.

Should that not be Club Goddess? God + Fran = Curious?

Look UNDER the avatar. 

The person(people) who wrote the software are MCPs.

There was a move to change it to "Club Arnage God/Goddess" but it was mutually decided that it looked rubbish (and also there are so few of us Goddesses a bit unnecessary).  So Steve Brown sourced a suitable avatar which I use instead.  Quite happy with it now thanks....

This is what the file name for your pic says -

Picking the bones out of that, I think you really mean -
