I'm not sure on this one, but I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the way our web host has PHP configred.

For now, you're just gonna have to go without an avatar, unless you have some other means of hosting it.

Sorry guys. :(

EDIT: To make it clear, I mean that you can't upload your avatar to our server and use it (as far as I know). You have to host it on another site and then link to that server.

kanter, to fix this you will need to create an upload folder in the images/avatars folder and run a SITE CHMOD 0777 on the folder.
this *should* allow PHP to create files in that folder, and thus allow avatar uploads; although i'm sure either you or pittman knew this (although, hey, pittman's an aggie, who knows? :lol: - longhorn speakin here :D )

peace

I do believe that the upload folder is there. I also do know that the folder needs to be chmod 777, allowing read, write, edit to all users. I think I remember I tried it once real fast and it didn't work then I kinda forgot about it. I'll give it a whirl when I get home onto my computer and have all my shit together...peace all
