HELL OF A TIME TRYING TO UPLOAD PROFILE PHOTO (Read 5773 times)

Rivieraranch Seasoned Member Posts: 2126	HELL OF A TIME TRYING TO UPLOAD PROFILE PHOTO 05/31/18 at 12:37:46 I've always had a hard time dealing with photos here, but this takes the cake. I want a profile photo and pasted the link from imageshack. The site won't take it. What the hell is wrong?

This forum code predates the facebook era and has no means to transcode images or videos to a workable size, so you have to resize the pictures before you try to upload them to the forum. A good width for this forum is 800 pixels wide or less. The limit in KB for a picture is 1000 KB. If the picture is less than 1000 KB it will upload fine regardless of what size it is.

The avatar has a size limit in pixels of no greater than 72 pixels wide and no greater than 95 pixels tall. Resize your avatar to those dimensions and it should work fine.

I looked at my settings and there isn't a damn thing that would prevent the address of the pic from translating to a little icon here. I just give up. I've spent more time on this than I would have to do any number of things.
