I can't see my new avatar!

Post by josh :) »

I have provided the url of an image from my photobucket. The image dimensions are 100 x 76 which are within the allowed dimensions. It accepted the image and apparently it's changed yet it won't load up properly. I can't see it, instead I see what is like a blank box where my avatar should be. There is some small symbol which looks like torn paper there....

edit: It also says 'user avatar' where my avatar is meant to be featured. Please help :(

if the image got moved to a new place or deleted on photobucket it messes up the url

did you try using the link for the pic itself?

the link seems to be from an album cover pic.

try this one, its a direct link to the pic

Yeah the issue is that you need to have a direct link to the photo. Your link is just to the page that the photo is on.

Thank you so much. That link you gave me didn't actually work! But I went to photobucket and got the direct link it gave me. I think those dots (...) before 'aron' ruined the link you gave me...because that seems to be the only dfference between the link I'm using now that works and the one you gave me.

Anyway thanks Tsukasa and everyone else :)

Thanks. The reason it didn't work when I tried this link was because this site automatically shortens the link code. What I should of done was click on the link and copy the url in the bar...but I'm not that smart
