I'm not sure where to put this if this is the wrong place I'm sorry.

 

Everytime I try to upload an avatar for my account it says invalid URL. It is the right size and pixels are under the limit. I can't figure out what to do.....please help. :pray:

If you're using imageshack, you need to click the little '+' sign at the bottom of the links page, it says something like 'advanced linking'.

 

That's the pure url, no code or 'show your friends' rubbish on it.

 

 

 

It should look like this:

Red is the file type (gif, jpg, png, etc)

Thank you very much Pyromancer. It worked. Problem solved. :thumbsup:

I'm here to help. :P
