I don't seem to be able to change my avatar

Gone into my controls - edit avatar - browse and go into my pictures on my computer, click on the one that I want and then click on Update Avatar

Am I doing this right or just being thick?

This happened to me just after Christmas so I left it a day & tried again the next day when it worked fine. If the problem persists, I'm sure Stuart will investigate :)

Sorry to raise this again - but I've been trying for three days to change my Avatar with no joy  :(  I've checked it file size and dimensions and they are fine.....

I can link to an off-site avatar, or use a gallery picture, but I can't upload a new one - problem is, there seems to be a length limit on the off-site picture url, so although I have uploaded the avatar I want to use to Photobox - I can't get the whole of the web address of the picture into the box  :rolleyes:

I am sure it will be OK once COL is on the "new" server/software - but I was hoping someone would tell me I'm not alone  :lol:

As you can see, I've done it - I have created a photobucket album and off-site linked to the avatar.......the URL for the picture is small enough to be accepted  :)  :)
