how do u guys get custom pictures that fit? it practically ALWAYS says that the image is too big to fit and so when i edit it on paint shop and stuff it always says its not a valid image or some crap like that. please help!
I believe the avatars have to be in .gif, .jpg, or .png format. You probably saved the images as .psp's.
Edit: Oh, it also has to be 60x60, or lower to be used.

The uploaded file is not a valid GIF or JPG file. Please ensure that it is and try again.
and im POSITIVE that i saved it as a gif file. please somebody help!
Open the file back up, and make sure it's not filename.gif.psp. I've actually done that a few times. -_-

Load it into Paint, highlight it and change the scale to pixels and size to 60 x 60.

Could have been the IE bug that saved it as BMP format really, if you got it off the web :p

*shrugs* If you still want the one that wouldn't work, attach it to a post and I'll see if I can't get it working.
If all else fails, as long as it's 60x60 or smaller and fits the filesize limitations (what was it, 4k? 5k? I'll have to double-check) and you still can't install it, I can install it via the admin control panel. That ignores a lot of limitations. *had a 100x100 av once*

You have no sense of good taste.
