I cannot get my Avatar to upload. It meets the file size requested. Does it only work if you have been on here ages?

Does it meet pixel and file size requirements? The 8kb I think is the harder part. If you can't get it, PM it to me and I can resize it for you.

Yes it is tiny: 50 x 50 pixels, 7.32k, RGB mode.
It keeps saying "No file selected" once I hit upload. Fails every time.

Try a different browser, just for the heck of it. If you're using I.E., try Firefox or Google Chrome.

I already tried Safari and Firefox before. This forum has a bug as I can upload to any other forum.

If your dimension and file size are within limits, then change the type of file. I don't recognize what RGB is, change it to a .jpg or .gif if it's animated and see what happens.

I think he means it's color (
Red Green Blue).

Indeed. I know some forums don't like CMYK.

I have a link on my desktop, but I'm outside right now. There is a handy conversion site(not sure if this is it, but something like it.). May help if the file type is the cause.
