I've got the same problem. Have tried repeatedly to upload an GIF image, within the parameters. No luck. Gave up trying. Just tried again. Suggestions?

I can see mine, occasionally... Meh.

Can't see mine either. I tried every way I know how to get one in.

Weird.

... don't know squat about traffic splitters, but me'thinks since we 'diversified' our database access, this has been more common. Multiple refreshes and 'show picture' commands seem to do the trick.

Lots of repetition seems to 'fix' the problem; not an optimal solution tho.

Related functions in forum management behave similarly, so we conspireth not -- all share in the spoils of technology like this.

It is but a phase. This too shall pass....

Same problem as lots of others have reported. GIF or JPEG, same thing...

Tried to upload a new avatar, and got this message:

"The avatar image file size must be less than 0 KB"

Things are going from bad to worse...

The problem continues. I try GIFs and JPEGs, all in accordance with the 145 pixel by 97 pixel by 10 KB spec, and all I get is the little red "X".

I reduce them to actually be smaller than the specs, with no better result.

*sighs*

As I said above, try to have your image somewhere else on the net (not peakoil) and link to it.

Try mine for example:

Works every time.

Somtimes it works, and sometimes not. I think the two servers are configured (or populated) differently. For example, paste this into your browser (it's the link to my avatar)

http://www.peakoil.com/modules/Forums/images/avatars/2134257635444867ec73d8b.gif

Sometimes it comes up and sometimes not. Just like my avatar when posting - sometimes its included, and sometimes not. The CODE is there on the page, but the image does not show.

See?? See??? No Avatar!

<------------------------------------------------------------------------

View source, though, and see that the link IS there.

Omygosh - NOW it's there! Anyway, something is AFU.
