The image I'm trying to load is within the pixel allowance.
I've tried loading from my computer & photobucket.
Keep getting an 'upload failed' notice.

Is it below the file size limit? (39.1 KB?)

It is 11.51 KB. 217px by 300px

Odd. I routinely use avatars that are way outside the pixel size limits. TFP resizes them for me.

edit: nope.

This is the image from photobucket I tried to load.

Not sure about the resizing. From my end, the system demands 100 by 100 pixels or 39.1 KB (whichever is smaller). Yours is nearly three times the pixel range. Can you resize it through Photobucket?

I was trying to edit profile pic instead of avatar.

let's see if this works:

Thanks for your patience with the confuzzled old me.

Baraka_Guru

Hey, that's a pretty sweet avatar!

Neither I nor my wife can replace our current avatars. I was able to delete hers, but not replace it. The new avatar that I attempted to load is well within the size requirements and I tried both jpg and png. And I tried both a direct upload and a URL link.

A little research indicates that this is a common problem with vBulletin. It appears that folder permissions don't get properly reset on an update.

Could I ask that an admin please look into this for us? Thanks so much.

Cynthetiq

can you send me the link as to which image you are trying to use?

and what "common" problem you're referring to. I keep up with the vbulletin issues for this version so I'd appreciate you linking that as well.

This is a good link to an avatar file that I can't make "save."

http://dmcgeepro.com/images/tmp/boobavat.jpg

Here are a couple of the links I found for the issue.

Avatar Uploads - Unable to save image [Archive] - vBulletin Community Forum

"Unable to save image" when updating Avatar? - LAN.ST

Thanks

Cynthetiq

It's there. I see it. I took a screenshot of it so that you can see it.

The issue you linked is for such an old version of vb that it's not that issue. The second one is also not that issue because the server hums along with little change to it since any upgrade that I do to it is strictly on the software and not on the folder permissions.

I'm going to say you should clear your browser cache and you should see your avatar.

But we don't see the avatar on her other recent post: Amateur Site - Tilted Forum Project Erogenous Zone

And we've cleared the cache on both her and my computers.

Cynthetiq

That explains a lot.

TFPEZ.com is not the same as tfproject.org.

It is a totally different database and a totally different URL. It shares an older codebase of TFP but it forked long ago when we split off the porn. It is also why your passwords there are not synced from TFP to TFPEZ.

Now that site, hasn't been updated and the folder structure is very different. There's lots of issues with that site that I'd like to fix but I cannot fix until we migrate to a new server.

OK, got it. It's fixed in the main forums, but won't save in the porn board. Thanks.

Cynthetiq

Yeah sorry I wish I could fix it. It's so far behind in upgrades and I like keeping things in sync.
