    I'm not sure if it's just me but I was trying to change my avatar but it didn't work. I checked the size but it was below 75x75 and it still didn't work and it didnt' say why. Can someone tell me if there's a problem or what?

    The maximum size of your custom image is 75 by 75 pixels or 48.8 KB (whichever is smaller). It could be that your avatar size exceeds 48.8 even though it is under 75 by 75 pixels.

    I checked the size of the avatar and it was only a few kb. I still don't understand why I can't change my avatar. I can only use the avatars from Spcnet.

    Make sure the avatar you are trying to download from your computer is a jpeg or gif format. bmp won't work.

    It's 75x75 so it works. I tried saving into my comp and upload but it didn't work! I really want to use this avatar.

    I tried to change my avatar to this Bosco avatar again at my friend's computer but it continued to not work. I don't know why. Can someone tell me what's happening?

    Well, I'm not sure what's happening, I tried uploading the avatar and it was successful. Hmm, you can try using other computers perhaps?

    You can always photoshop it and make it smaller. No big deal.

    Or you can also use Microsoft Office Picture Manager if you have it.

    lol i kno, but the pic i have is really really big, so even by using photoshop, it turns blurry? n u can barely see the pic since its gotten so small..
    n plus..most avatars are 100 x 100, so it'll b soo much easier to just copy& paste the link n bam! done haha..n the size 48.8 kb is 2 small..so if my "avie" isn't as blurry as it already is..the kb is 2 big even if its 75 x 75 so i'll have 2 make it even MORE smaller
    oh well..i guess i'll live lol

    Could you give me the link to the 100x100 avatar and I'll see if I can resize it without compromising the picture quality of the avatar? If not, we can always make our own avatar with the favorite star of ours or anything. So wanna take up on my offer? I don't do this just for anyone, except maybe Cherrie, cuz she's a good friend. Haha...so choice is yours...
