Temp Avatar Fix Idea

[tesco]

currently the sig and avatar uploading doesn't work.
you know that probably.

im guessing it will be hard to fix and will be a while.
atm avatar's can only be uploaded to fst to be used...no outside sources.

can you please enable teh option for us to use a url as our avatar until the uploading problem is cured?

You know its a simple thing but ,my avatar is an extention of my personality. Fuck I hate mine now, would love to change it. B) Not only that but I found a good one and can't use it .

Edit spelling : :)

I used to use that exact same avatar like a year ago. Wasted so much time here. :( O well, it was worth it.

Rookie has said that he requested a permissions check, I assume that means that he thinks the problem is that the permissions on the avatar files are not set to allow us write access. If this is the case changing the permissions should be the matter of 2 seconds work, so it sounds like the hold up isn&#39;t with rookie but with the server admin? A few days won&#39;t kill you.
btw i want to change my avatar too. This ones lame and jerks a lot in places.

i doubt i will be changing mine for a long time :P

Maybe this board is just turning ghetto. Reminds me of an old run down tenament. Everybody hangs out there but nobody fixes shit&#33;

Why is it we have to have Avatar`s uploaded at this server? Wouldn’t save this forum more bandwidth/server cost if everybody hosted their pictures elsewhere? Maybe have a pin on some web/pictures hosting places where people can store there pictures?



imageshack (http://www.imageshack.us/) for example is a good place.

Lycos Tripod (uk) (http://members.lycos.co.uk/) is also good..

The problem is that "Safe Mode" is enabled on the server.I had the same problem with my host.

When "Save Mode" is enabled you can&#39;t upload/edit anything (files) externaly.That means you can&#39;t upload files (in this case pictures) via this board.

The server administrator has to disable "Safe" Mode" and the problem would be gone.
