Would be nice to upload me avatar... could surprise some.

[LadyPhoenix]

Any admins going to chime in on this? Please. http://prod.bsis.bellsouth.net/coDataImages/p/Groups/40/40377/folders/24631/145052upset01.gif

Sure - MightyE has to fix some things since the avatar stuff didn't migrate properly.

MightyE isn't usually around on the weekend, either. So just be a little patient....

[Talisman]

I don't think there's a problem with avatar migration, unless he was doing something unique. The problem is one of setting access permissions in the avatar folder, which can only be done by someone who has full access to the server.

What fun is a new forum without a couple growing pains? :lol:

[Shandra]

And these are very MINOR growing pains... (kudos to the admins for that)

[Moonchilde]

Actually, it takes someone with root permissions on the server because of the way the server is set up (I have access to the forum server and to the lotgd forum directory and I am unable to fix it).

Basically at this point all you can do is wait for MightyE to fix it.

[Xecutioner]

I've tried so many times to load my avatar and signature but no success, but i'll keep trying, probably just some careless mistake :roll:

[LadyPhoenix]

Xecutioner, it won't work until MightyE fixes it, so you just need to hang tight there. :)

[MightyE]

Sorry guys, we had the permissions set up correctly on the old server, but when we migrated, the permissions got lost. I put them there now, they should be good.

[JCP]

I'm good.

Unleash the avatars!

[Nalle]

i don't use a avitar but could some one please tell me how to change the " farmer title" from under my name , i went into profile and looked under avitars but atm its empty.
Any help would be awesome. thanks
Nalle

[LadyPhoenix]

Make more posts. As you post more, your title will reflect your new posting status. User titles do not appear to be turned on with this server, though it's possible there is an admin function for this. I don't know. This isn't the forum base I'm used to running, so I can't tell you for sure. It's not uncommon for admins to have that ability, though.

[Nalle]

Ok thank you very much :)

[lonestrider]

Too bad we can't link our titles with the LOTGD titles, but I suppose each rank to their own sphere.

[The Ancient]

Having the same problems mentioned before with uploading my avatar and all that wot. :?

[JCP]

related to the crash, no doubt. I'll let the mighty one know.

[LadyPhoenix]

Ack! I didn't even realize my avatar was gone!

[Moonchilde]

Ack! I didn't even realize my avatar was gone!

This should be fixed now.

[BarnCat]

Fixed? Down again? Needing fixed again? I'm having some troubles getting a pic up. Are there any real good sites for remotely hosted Avatars? I'm such an avatard, lol.

[BarnCat]

I'm such an avatard, lol.

Nayverr miyeend... I wasn't paying attention to Pixel and Kb size limits. Don't worry, the avatar's a rough draft. I'll have something better up soon.

[X-Kal]

Ahh, the joys of avatar size limits :)

It's a nice rough draft, anyways. Yeah, I think the limit is something like 100x100? My avatar should be *exactly* at the max, whatever it is.

EDIT: 80x80 is the max.

[BarnCat]

Yep 80x80, and could be foggy on this but 10,000kb? I'd have to check again, to post up for reference.

[X-Kal]

Not quite :p

Taken straight from the avatar edit page, and I don't know why I didn't check that first:

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 80 by 80 pixels or 10.0 KB (whichever is smaller).
