Can't add an avatar to my profile.
« on: May 24, 2017, 04:03:57 pm »

Here's the avatars that I tried to add to my profile: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6vrHyUBleU1ZEgxcmpnZ1NPRHc

I tried different resolutions (all square), to no avail, and jpg and png and low and high-quality jpegs (smaller file size).

This post says that the size limit is either 100x100 or 150x150, but neither work, it just accepts it and then says I have no avatar set when it refreshes.

Actual links used:

Don't know what that is, but I gave you an avatar until you have better luck with yours.

You can't add HTTPS links as an avatar in SMF 2.0, without modification to the forum software. It is a SMF limitation.

Host it somewhere like Imgur and edit the direct link to http:// instead of https://

Yeah, that was the problem. Thanks a lot!

You can use HTTPS avatars now (also the forums are fully HTTPS too). :)
