How to put up a custom avatar?

RadheRade1657 · 02-02-2008, 12:00 AM

Whenever I try to put up a custom avatar, I get the message "This is not a valid image.", and I don't know why. I make it the appropriate size, and the picture isn't innapropriate or anything (it's Krsna at Radarani's lotus feet). So, why is it that I can't put the picture up? Any suggestions?

Also check the KB, the avatar shouldn't be bigger than 19,5 KB.
Could be that it works with bigger avatars when uploading for example at tinypic.com and entering the url at "Enter Avatar Url".
Something like http://i28.tinypic.com/kd1fzm.jpg
