i tried to upload my new avvie but it said i don't hav the right to edit that user's info. help?

Something must be wrong with your picture. Is the picture dimensions 100 by 100? Is it in an acceptable image?

yes, i even tried a 90 by 90.

The server probably thinks you logged out for some reason. Log out & back in & it should work.

nothing. it still does not work.

What message does it give you? Can you take a screenshot of it?

sure! here you go:

The first screen ...I've never gotten that message before.
The second happens when you get logged out.
I tried uploading it as my avvie and it worked.

no, i already told you, i tried that and it did not work. i tried to log out then log back in, i tried to make sure i wasn't logged out, i even tried to speed up the process of uploading. no dice.

just to make sure, what file type is it?
and the name doesn't contain any weird characters right?

It sounds like a major cookie issue. Use another browser/computer where you haven't logged in here before and see if that works. If you run into the same problem on another system that has never logged in here then it's a permission issue with your account and you will need an admin to fix it manually on the server side.

alright, that will be a last minute resort.

wolfie : it is a jpeg, 90 by 90

Well the last picture happens for me too.

It happens when you click at the <- button at the top of the screen and try to upload.

I don't know bout the first one though, what is in the image?

The second error can be stopped by deleting browing history cookies.
The first error, you may want to check the picture for viruses. Try converting to bmp

can bmp even be uploaded? O.o

anyway, the picture size has to be 100x100...

i tried that size too. when i try to block the cookies, it just keeps logging me out every time a log in. i had this problem before. any other ideas?

have you tried a different browser and/or computer?

nope on the browser, don't have a different computer

edit: tried on the browser, no luck. any other suggestions?

Try converting your image to png and/or in gif.

Otherwise, consider clearing your cache.

If it does not work, try posting your avatar (one in png, one in gif).

maybe something messed up with your permission settings ie what you can/can't do on the forum

Ask an admin if anything's funky with your permissions.
