uploading a profile picture

[vba_php]

site admins or mods,

I tried to upload a jpg file for this and it was 100x100 pixels (the maximum allowed, according to the CP), however I got the error u see in the attached image. the file size is only 7kb.

Am I missing something?

I just tried and mine is only 2K
A png was only 7K and that failed as well.

 

[vba_php]

A png was only 7K and that failed as well.

then the specs are obviously wrong. it says it chooses the lesser of 100X100 pixels and 97.7K in size. Where is Jon the site owner when you need him?

EDIT
=================================
the photo has since uploaded. must have been a quirk.

We're talking avatar? For me it says 50x50:

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 50 by 50 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

Never mind, I see I was in the wrong place. Sorry!

 

[Gasman]

Mine still says upload failed, but there it is?

I see an avatar but not a profile pic for you.

Hi Paul. I see a profile picture for him (unless I'm looking in the wrong place, I just clicked on his username).

I see profile pics for you and vba_php, not Gasman.

Ah, same here. Sorry for the mixup.

 

[Gasman]

Yes, not getting the hang of this.
I select a pic and Save Changes and it uploads the pic,and it appears and Ithen press Save Changes again and then I get Upload failed.

I believe I have both now?
Avatar is a pic of a bike and Profile a pic of garden.?

 

[pbaldy]

Yes, I see both now.

And if you were closer I'd ask you to come take care of our garden. I have the proverbial black thumb.

Oh that is not my garden. I too kill anything that grows.

That is a pic of the hotel I stay in when I go scuba diving. They have a gardener.

I'm removing them anyway, as they were just some pics to test.

That's a shame. A profile picture makes it very easy to scroll through and find a specific person's contributions in a lengthy thread

You mean the avatar pic?

 

[isladogs]

I did. I do get confused easily
Thanks. I'll soon recognise the new avatar. What is it meant to be?
