AVATAR Upload problems. we once again (we had them in april fixed it then it has returned.) have the upload problem can one of the Admins please change it to writable.

True fix this as it's impossible by now upload an avatar.

you can upload it to photobucket and link to the avatar.

*Message also pointed to newcomers*

Ya use Imageshack, photobucket,Freewebs, or your own hosting that you pay for to host your avatar and link it in your profile. Anything like Angelfire, imagedump, Tripod, geocities sucks since they prevent hot-linking images  :

 

Hope that helps like AT-AT said it since thats how most of us have our avatars up.

bleah, still broken  I wish I could use photo bucket but that is blocked  Imageshack isn't but I'm still trying to figure out how to use it.  :-\

Can't one of you admin types fix it? it was really simple change the Database back onto Writeable.

You'd think that, wouldn't you ..

I've tried several times with no success, it maybe something in the code for SMF 1.1 RC3, so I'm awaiting a solution on their forums.

Host your picture somewere like we all do and use that link to edit your avatar.

I have looked into the set up and there was an extra "/" for the avatar directory. I removed it however it still did not work. I crossed referenced the file path with the attachments and made sure they were the same. However I had no luck. I can only guess that the "Chmod" for both directories has been set incorrectly. Since I don’t have direct server access I can't fix it. The domain owner needs to reset it again. I assume this was a result of the recent domain restore that happened. 

Evaders99 can you pls give Spartan FTP acces ... he is a skilled dude with this stuff Spartan .. can you sow off a bit? So people know what you do ?

 

Thanks,

Check the DB Size.  last Time I checked it was around 50 MB.  And we had used 49MB...  I think we may have filled up the Directory.

There's no limit on the database size. There maybe something within SMF admin panel that controls how much file space is set off for attachments?

 

CHMOD is correct, it has been set to 777 and it is writable by other scripts. So it is something with SMF

you can upload it to photobucket and link to the avatar.

 

yeah but then you have to make it like the size of mine -_-

Sorry about that, Avatars should be fixed now

thanks Evader99. i can bring back Bob the cookiee Stealer!
