Looks like the problem with your avatar is down to where you have your pic hosted rather than a COL hitch ;) If you enter the url for the pic direct into a browser, it comes up with a page not found error so it's not where it's meant to be for some reason. You'll need to have a rummage around Imageshack by the look of it ;)

Not sure :-\ Sometimes there is a temp problem uploading avatar pics which sorts itself out so may be ok in a day or two but if not, Stu will check it out.

It's still there on imageshack - and it's working on OH's MSN, so I'm very confused...  :-\

And I can't do anything to the code anyway, as I have the Oldies donator in my signature so it won't let me save the changes without losing my ticker...

I'm not sure why that would happen as you don't have to go anywhere near your signature code to change your avatar url :-\ I've tried your avatar url in two different browsers now and they both say the image isn't there so it does look like the address is wrong or has changed somehow. If you can copy the code from Imageshack and paste it here, I'll try and sort it out on your profile (might have to be later though as am going out soon)

This is the code...

Ok will report the problem to Stu - we may need more room for unloaded photos or something

Karma, your pic seems to be fine now with the new url :D
