fudg3tunn3l Posted September 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 The avatar control panel seems to be broken.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 Indeed it does.. very strange.[edit]This seems to be a known phpBB bug... looking into it[/edit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoovious Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Can you increase the limitations on avatars a bit?My regular avatar is 100x100 pixels, 18k, animated.I'd like to use it. Also... I can't seem to view the emoticons. I get descriptive links where they should be to the left of this window I'm typing in.Something for the to-check list.-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Finally I figured it out.. A certain directory did not have execute permission for unknown reasons. Avatars and smilies work properly now. As for increasing the size limits, I'll have to think about it.. bandwidth permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turned out the problem was on my end, and not having enough ports available in my stack to get them, so they just failed to load. They show fine now.(anyone know of a replacement stack for Win98se that isn't so limited on the number of open connections you can have at once?)-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Actually the emoticons were broken until a few minutes ago. For everyone. I just fixed them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatars and smilies work properly now. As for increasing the size limits, I'll have to think about it.. bandwidth permitting.I have a couple sites that host my avatar for me. If I can use the URL for it, then it wouldn't be a bandwidth issue for you.I'm not sure if phpbb will let you set different limitations depending on where the avatar is hosted or not.If you can set them differently, and allow larger avatar sizes for ones hosted off-site, that would work for me...-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Offsite avatars are not subject to size limitations. That means someone could use a 1000x1000 pixel avatar. Maybe i'll just disable the whole avatar deal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe i'll just disable the whole avatar deal...I tried adding my avatar's URL, and got the same size restrictions.The Profille page says my avatar would be _copied_ from the URL location to the local server.Oh well... guess I'm going naked...-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 There are two methods that require a link: direct linking (no limitations, currently disabled method) and the other method that copies the image at the specified link, which is just another way to upload the file to the forum.

Guest Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Uploading avatars seems to be borked again. It says "The server was unable to save the uploaded file. Please contact the forum administrator at strigeus@utorrent.com." Disk full? Permissions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
