Hi,
Just trying to upload an avatar from my home comp, but getting this error:
Error
The ./images/avatars/uploads directory is not writeable, make sure to set the permissions ( CHMOD ) for the folder to 777 on your server.
Can anyone help please?
Cheers,
Mike.

I'm getting the same error message as zalman1.
The format is just like Samba and I've never had a problem uploading a correctly sized avatar there.
I sure wish someone could set me straight on a direct upload from my rig.

Hey steve,
Try the photobucket site to host your pics. Woeked first time for me. They even have a tool to size you pic perfectly for an avatar.
Cheers

I'm not doubting the photobucket route works, I just want to understand why the direct upload isn't working for me and what to do to achieive that end.
I'm no techie, but I can usually navigate around typical problem areas, but this one is puzzling to me.
The direct upload should work, but isn't.
How about a savvy mod filling me in on this?
