Default changing avatar

Has anybody but me been unable to change their avatar? I have uploaded a new photo half a dozen times now and it won't change. I did resize it and the upload was successful. Not sure what's happening here.

Where do you have the .JPG??? I went into the system to take a look and when I tried to open what you are trying to post I get this.

There used to be a glitch in the system....I don't know if it's still there.
I found out about it by accident. If you are uploading a file with an "&"
in it, you will get the red X. I got the red X one time by uploading a file
named "K&B".....

FBD.

I have the picture saved in the my pictures folder on my computer. When I upload it I get the message "file uploaded successfully" I know I didn't have this trouble when I put up my original avatar.

I did the test grab and still nothing displays but that odd pic of a guy with the huge eye. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. When I uploaded the image is said it was successful. I did click the "ok" button as instructed. But no avatar []

I'm not sure what the problem is, but when I check on the avatar you have loaded it shows a camo warbird with a yellow spinner. Is that what you are trying to use as your avatar?

depfife, if you look you will see that my last post ont his thread is november. I was able to upload the avatar and all has been fine for a very very long time. I'm not the one having a problem right now it's somebody else. Yes my avatar is the stuka with the yellow spinner.
