Make sure that the width and length do not exceed the limits for your profile pic, should tell you the max specs when you try to upload it....

Actually, I think I will try and change mine today and see what happens...

I've done it in the past, so I'm using the same format photos, but it's just not working. You might find something when you try.

I can't change my profile picture. it won't accept a photo, only an avatar ...

I haven't been able to change mine for over a year now...tried many times. Also a normal resized jpg photo.
Did you do anything about the logging out problem or did it fix itself....'cos I've been fine with that for a while now.

I tried again and it only allows me to post avatars, not photos.

Ok, for some reason or other, which I have yet to solve, the forum is only allowing images that are in the .gif (animated picture) or .png format to be uploaded for a members avatar.

The maximum size allowed for any of these images to be uploaded is 200x200 pixels...

Patricia emailed her pic to me, I converted it to .png format and then resized it down to 200x196, I could then upload it for her.....

I will try and find out , why normal jpegs or bmp files cannot be uploaded...

If anyone else needs help to modify their profile pic, email me the image and I will see what I can do....
