that is because your image is huge .....

Make it smaller than 100 x100 or it will not work. I have done this to stop big images as avatar

I "fixed"* some PHP code to allow admins to get their avatars back.

Dude, I've made your avatar turn up but the original source is 148x95 pixels (which is why it didn't work for you).

If you had resized it to 100x64 and re-upload it to muchos and it would have worked. So please do before I change my mind! :-) 100x100 is plenty for everyone

Skewy,

I fixed your post above, and got the pic to work in the post. For some strange reason the %20 replacements for the spaces didn't work, ie the following doesn't work

but if you remove all the %20 and replace them with a space, it looks like this

Don't know why that works but it does.

As for you avatar pic (yes it's the profile pic), it has to be 100x100 or smaller. The [img width=50 height=50] command will only resize the displayed image, the original image is still too big. The original link image has to be 100x100. So if you enter the image URL in a browser and view it, it has to be 100x100 or smaller

Done. We really should make a FAQ on this one. It's not hard to do.
