[Forum] Unable to set a profile image (on the forums)

Recommended Posts

I tried to upload an image to my profile - to no avail (nothing appears). I also created a Gravatar account and added the image there. Chosing the Gravatar option here in my forum profile does display the image in my profile, but the image still doesn't appear in my posts. What am I missing?

Use imgur.com and place the link by url option.

Some image locations (like gravatar) gets blocked by several privacy addons as ghostery, disconnect, etc. For example using a browser without any addons I see your profile image as a coin. If I use my usual addon-ed browser, you have none at all.


 


I never seem to have any problems uploading a avatar from my own pc but I read a lot of people do. Using a third party like imgur usually fixes it for them.

Yeah it didn't work for me, even with imgur. EDIT- it worked using the direct link option with a file size smaller than 50 kb
