Default Mod help with avatar upload failed

Been trying to upload my old avatar without luck.

Even tried to dump my current avatar with a delete.

Help?!

Upload failed generally means the image is too large.

You'll need to reduce the image yourself or post it here and I'll assist.

Thanks, but I gathered that from past experiences.

WHat I am telling you is that I cannot change my avatar, period.
The change or DELETE will not respond at all.

And the avatar I have been attempting to up load is the same file I have used for years.

So if you're at the following link:
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/prof...?do=editavatar

The Save Changes button doesn't work?

What theme are you using?

The link you've posted is different than the link available from the control panel.

I have now successfully deleted my avatar. Next is to use your link again to repost my original. 150x149 12.1 K

Whatever..... It works. Thanks

The link I posted came from the UserCP.

I'm curious as to the link you was trying, which may be theme/skin related. The database shows you use the C4 theme as default, which is the same theme/skin I use myself. So not sure where you were getting a different link since we're using the very same theme/skin - unless you're overriding the theme/skin via cookies.

It would help to know further details to see if we need to fix something.

Still trying to sort this out. I tried using IE9 and Chrome my default is Firefox.
All three failed the upload.
I dumped the cache as well as other temp folders.
Then clicked on your posted link and the problem has not resurfaced.

I dunno.. Full moon?
