It has to be a certain size. Any other size and it will not load.

the image size is set to avatar on photobucket

Pauly, even though avatar size on PB was picked, make sure it fits into this catergory

You actually don't need photbucket for your avatar.
Just make it the correct size on your computer and via your profile you can upload it to the forum.

Send me the picture via PM and I will see what is wrong with it, and hopefully fix it for you.

Pauly's avatar now appears to be 640x480 pixels. A bit too Titanic...

I was beginning to think it was just me suffering a bit of double vision. Somehow that Titanic picture fills the screen of every thread Pauly is posting in. I know this isn't his fault and when Wallace or Tony come on they will sort it for sure, but I would have though MFF forums wouldn't even enable such a huge avatar as it pushes all post text to the far right.
Yup, a bit too Titanic for sure.

looks fine to me sorry for any inconvenience but I just did what James told me to do.
curse this modern technology 
now if it was steam powered

Now it's fixed...I can't explain it either...it's been healed!!
|

maybe it just sunk 
next time I change my avatar Ill give you guys a warning 
|

It isn't fixed for me. It's still huge. I've tried logging off and coming back into the forum from scratch but it's still 640x480.

isnt they a moderator that can see and fix this. 
cause I cant see it
|

That is so weird...Steve, mine WAS exactly as you describe...humongous pic of Titanic and everything else shifted to the right...then no sooner did I type that message 15 or 20 min. ago, it corrected itself (from my view)...all's well here.
Maybe it is something to do with refresh rates of the system in various parts of the world? Or sun spots, or big foot???

Looking good here...but then again, the Titanic in small format was fine too.
|

OK it's fixed now. Time-warping gremlins!

great now Iv got a problem I dont like this 1 so I will be trying a few more on for size but if anyones computer goes weird like with the titanic 1 PM me and I will change it straight away. 
|

If there's any more weirdness I'm sure you'll soon hear about it!
btw, how long has the Transporter been blue? I'm sure it was a dirty red when I was a lad... but that was.... some time ago... so it could have been every colour of the rainbow since then!

Er... we're back to the huge Titanic again......
|
johnreid
|
I see it at 100 X 75, that should be right
|
IndianaRog
|
I, like Steve am seeing the huge Titanic again and all text pushed to the far right.
Gremlins indeed!

Anyone still having problems or is it all sorted?

Tony, it is once again OK from this end.

It's huge for me. Takes up half the screen.

You probably have the incorrect image stored in your browser cache.
If using IE
Click on Tools then Internet options
Under the general tab click on 'Delete files' in the Temporary Internet Files section.
If using firefox
Click on tools, then Clear private Data
Ensure Cache is ticked
Then click clear private data now.
If that doesn't fix the problem let me know.

Thanks, it fixed it.

I like it when fixes don't involve me having to do anything.

OK here now too.
|
IndianaRog
|
All is well here too...Tony's suggested fix was just the thing needed. Tony, that's why we pay you the big bucks

sorry everybody I thought that by changing the image it would be OK.

Thats ok Rog but it's about now I'm going to ask for that 50% pay rise.

I think its always been painted blue except when it was closed for about 30 years because it became a suicide hot spot itll have been rusty then.
