You need to upload it to imageshack or flickr (or something similar) then use to create a link. :)

There is an image size restriction. Make it smaller.

It has nothing to do with a post restriction.

Jackal's probably hit the nail on the head.

Look below that. You can link to a http pic or upload a pic from your computer. It tells you the size restriction.

i have tried posting but a mod has to overview the post and its been a few days now, still no option on an avatar?

Maybe try again after your 11th post, we installed new spam software recently which limits privileges for new memebers with less than 10 posts. I don't know for sure if it limits avatar images, but it is highly likely this is the culprit. S.F.W. can confirm.

What you should see is this:

I just approved a few of your posts including some with images.

If you can provide us with a screen capture of the avatar section for you we might be able to help you out better.

Did you indeed need over 10 posts? 'Cause I'm having the same issue.. no option to add an avatar. The page looks just like the screen cap a few posts up, but with the entire 'custom avatar' section removed.

Also, sorry to necro the thread.

yes 10 posts to upload avatar as well. Spam prevention.
