Hi,

Please respond to this thread and let me know if you're still encountering the "server error" problem - or any other similar error - when attempting to upload new avatars. Please leave as many details as possible as to the kind of error you are receiving. Cheers!
 
My only complaint is that the upload size is a bit bigger. My avatar is usually animated. :X
 
That's easily fixed. I'll up the maximum avatar file size limit when I'm done re-installing XenForo. If for some reason I forget and don't implement it tonight, just send me an angry profile message.
 
Yes. Whenever I tested for new avvies, an error message would come up. This was barely two or three hours ago.

Yep, still there:
Information

A server error occurred. Please try again later.
Please try again and let me know how you get on.
 
One thing I don't like about the new system is that it doesn't automatically resize/compress avatars anymore. If the avatar exceeds the limit (29kb, in this case) it just rejects it entirely. Also, my avatar is 32kb.
 
I had some difficulties before, but I managed to upload my new avatar after a few tries, one including deleting my old one. I couldn't just replace it, and the Gravatar option didn't work for me.
 
Like I said in the other thread, is there any way to make it so the avatars aren't resized to 100x100?

Hello, sir!

Yes, I am having issues uploading my avatar. Whenever I do, it gives the "X" image, like it's a broken link. But it's not a link I'm uploading; it's the actual pic!

Weird. Let me know if you need more details.

Thanks!
 
Allo Steve, just tried to upload a new avatar but got the message:

yeah I'm getting the same problem as he is (from what I can tell)

EDIT: disregard that, I got around it using "Gravatar"
 
Yep I get that message too. And the other thing is. It only changes my "profile" avatar, as opposed to the one that's next to my posts.

And though it tells me there's an error. If I wait a couple minutes and go back to my profile page, the avatar is changed regardless of the "server error" so I don't know what's going on with that.
 
I've tried uploading mine, and I don't get an error yet nothing shows up. I only see a blank white box.
