...or maybe I'm incompetent?

I've now tried on 2 different computers, so it's probably nothing to do with my laptop being shite.

Both files were under 32KB, both were jpegs... HEEEELLP!!!

Hmm, there are quite a few people on the Internet with this problem. I'll see if upgrading phpbb helps, so try again in a bit.

a common problem with phpbb is that for some reason the avatar folder is not given write priviledges enough and so no new avatars can be written to the folder.. Cocodude I would check the folder permission if I were u ;)

That didn't seem to work unfortuntely. I'll try to upgrade phpBB soon, but it's a bit awkward because I've hacked around with a few files myself.

yes I know how that is... phpBB should be haxed anyway.. as it is otherwise not really optimal.. but enough about that..

I'm off again.. I might be on twofo in a week or so when I'm done with the many activities here :P

I've now upgraded phpBB to the latest version. Please let me know if avatars work. If they don't, I'll try some more things.
