Admin is working on upgrading the database.  He has also tightened security around here because of all the bad jokes!   laughing  So be patient.  Some of the features may be disabled or buggy for a few days.

Happy New Year!

whew!!!!!

1 hr later and sizing two different aspects (vert. and hor.) to exactly 95x120 (several dozen times) and hosting from Photbucket, I finally got a pic that didn't look like a "Silly-Putty" copy from the color Sunday Comics!   And even now it is majorly pixelated.  scratch scratch

laughing laughing  laughing laughing laughing

I couldn't bear looking like a Dali watch! 

All good things come to him/her who waits.  (at least until the bugs {cockroaches, i hear} here get worked out   Smile




ADPENDIUM:   BAD JOKES????  LOL!  where's my flame thrower?????  Pmeek lend me your enforcer!

I've been trying to change my avatar for the past few days to get rid of my New Year's theme and keep getting the message:

The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved.

I feel so helpless!!

your not doing anything wrong   laughing   http://www.sweepsadvantage.com/smf/avatar-problems-t50384.0.html   

I have been wanting to change mine also.. I know if you go to photobucket instead of trying to upload from your saved pics it does work.. sometimes. but it can be blurry like mine.  not sure what to do.
