      I can't seem to upload a new avatar.

      Whenever I try I am getting a HTTP error.

      Do I have to use an image site to do this, are we allowed to upload the server?

      And something of reasonable size (say, a few hundred pixels each side?). Use the change avatar button and Go ahead and use the crop tool to select the whole image. See if it will let you upload, that worked for me.

      I had a lot of trouble

      Nothing was working out for me when I was trying to crop and resize so I finally just started trying different images.  I finally found one that worked with no problems.  It was a .png image with 150 x 150 resolution.

      Thank you all.

      I’ve tried making it smaller and changing the resolution, to no avail.

      Guess I’m stuck with the ugly little monster instead of my world class surfer grandson.

      Thanks for the help.

      It helps if the photo is 150 x 150 pixels. I have no idea how to get your photo down to that size.

      Maybe someone else does. Sorry!

        Yes, of course!

        I’m glad it worked. Asking SFFH to change your title…
