I'm trying to post a new avatar. Resized it on photobucket, but when I try to insert it in the place for URL on the user cp page, it tries to load, then says "invalid file".

What am I doing wrong?

Here is the link:

okay, so it is showing up here, but won't in my user cp??? What's the deal? I resized it to "avatar" size on photobucket...

It also needs to be under 4k, currently it is over 7k. Can you resize that? Also, to upload to an avatar here, file needs to be on your PC, not linked from another site, just the opposite of an image in your signature.

Try now, JnX1, you need ten posts to post a picture. And welcome to the DIS.

i resized the image using photobucket but it still keeps coming up too big

Do a browser refresh, you are looking at the cached, larger image on your PC. I see a smaller one.
