I've been trying to get a pic for my avatar, but it won't take it. I don't know what to do.



This is the pic I'm trying to use:

the avatar needs to be 100X100 pixels, for starters.

Your avatar can only be 100 x 100 pixels, you will have to resize this.

Alright no offense, but why would any forum allow an avatar that's 400x400. I don't think that's even considered an avatar.

As said above, 100 x 100 pixels is the max. It would be so difficult and would change the topic interface if it was big enough.

Exactly. Everywhere dan would post the page would move over a few inches and it would be a huge pain.

Don't some Forums allow you to have however large a Avatar you wish? It automatically resizes it when you use it on the Forums.

It typically requires a mod that the admin has to install.
