splitbusaustralia - August 27th, 2002 at 04:02 PM

OK,

Help me please I'm a DUMMY!

direct URL is

http://users.pipeline.com.au/hoopty/robs23rf.jpg 

The attachment method gives

http://www.mickmotors.com.au/forum/viewthread.php?action=attachment&tid=1...

neither of em give me an avatar when I put em in my profile. Not even a red cross.

What gives?

arrghhhhhhh

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

http://muchos.co.uk/members/skewy/Copy%20of%20all%20type%203_s.gif

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

[img]http://muchos.co.uk/members/skewy/Copy of all type 3_s.gif[/img]

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=50x50] 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


SKEWtYpe3 - August 28th, 2002 at 10:07 PM

cheers fellas !
i thought maybe the [img50x50] was what i was doing wrong but i have to find and install photoshop now........or jsut use another pic.
thanks for the cool forum setup i love it !

It's 140 pixels high!

How do you make images 100 by 100?
I want to use my old one again. How do I fix it?

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