Psychostorm Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Tried changing my avatar on the main site, but hitting the button just refreshes the page and doesn't do anything. I made sure that my pic was 250x250 and that the link works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxWench Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Is the link hosted on a site like Photobucket, or another image archiving site? I'm fairly sure you can't use an image from your hard drive for the archive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGoddess Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 yep, no uploaded images are allowed anymore. You do have to link to the image at an image hosting site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychostorm Posted July 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 It's hosted on Amazon S3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGoddess Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 I tried opening your image, and there's nothing at the supplied path but a blank page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychostorm Posted August 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 You're probably looking at the url for my old avatar. The url itself won't change when I try to update it. The new one I want to use is: http://s3.amazonaws.com/Zimax/Desktop/My%20Pictures/Pictures/My%20Pictures/Picture/Abortion%20Number%20Nine%2002.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxWench Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 I'm seeing the same avatar as you're using here. However, I think the problem lies with the archive not accepting a link from AWS. I link mine in from a free account with Photobucket, and have no issues for forum or archive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGoddess Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 it was the spaces in the name of the file, no big deal, I forced it to accept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melrick Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Yeah, it's never a good idea to have spaces in file names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
