[color:blue]Hi^^ I'm having trouble with my Avatar picture.. I tried to change it.. but it's not showing up.. When I upload from my computer &click 'preview' I can see it just fine.. But on the Forum itself it's not showing up at all.. The icon itself is saved as a .jpg file so it fits in with the allowed types.. I'm a bit confused as to why it won't work.. Thank you..[/color]

(By "size" he means how many bytes it is, not how wide/tall it is... Figured I'd clarify since it took me a moment to realize that the question wasn't redundant.)

Also, CMYK format JPEG files won't work. It has to be RGB.

You didn't answer the first question. What are the dimensions of the image? It can't be greater than 100x100.
